1 Too short ! The first was one of the 98 minutes' movies that really looked like more than this with its rich details, too many successive jokes, and good flashy sudden sequences. But on the other hand this one is only 88 minutes time, and the 88 minutes type also !
2 The surprise effect. When the first one came out it was such a new genius formula for Sci-Fi Action Adventure Buddy-cup Comedy, not to mention its smart ironic paranoia. So this time, along with the inferiority of that very formula's factors, you'd feel how it wasn't that completely new either.
3 The fact that (Tommy Lee Jones) didn't act a bit in here ! Actually he represented the ideal image for an-actor -in-Hollywood-who-had-been-forced-to-do-the-same-over-and-over-again kind of matters !, and in a historically rebellious sort of attitude he expressed his own objections against that by doing nothing at all in front of the camera ! Like he tells them "Do you want a sequel?..Well.. Here you are right in your faces !". Maybe this movie will be mentioned in the books of movies' history, where some actor patented the invention of being so frigidly dull as a perfect slap on the face of Hollywood's hackneying.
4 Although there was too many bizarre characters, but all in all the CGI wasn't as good as the original (it was so badly obvious at the big worm's sequence for instance) like the budget was that low.
5 The interesting paranoia is missing in this sequel.
So that's why this movie will be always and forever number 2 as the ordinary numbering, and when it comes to make comparison with its original in quality as well. Though, it's nice fun if you want silly comics for an hour and a half.
