I've always found it stupid to see the sequel to a film that you didn't even like.

The movie was great. People just love to get on and hate. Makes them feel better to try to make other people feel like crap so they don't have to feel like crap alone! I saw it monday and everyone I know who saw it loves it.

I just realized that no matter what, the haters here always get their "clever" ideas and opinions from AINTITCOOLNEWS, the bland critic site. Good job thinking for yourself guys.

Awesome movie

I agree, AintItCoolNews is filled with haters and negative people that loves to bash all movies. Having said that, I look forward to see this. Probably worth it for the action alone.
