    Action, comedy, and a wee bit of romance!
    Like part 1, the build up to the action is notably longer than the action spectacle itself. Though, the comical aspect really make up for it, hence it doesn't feel tedious. Moreover, the action scenes in this one feel more high budget so it's a real treat to watch!

    Thanks to Netflix we were able to enjoy both films! I've been meaning to check them out ever since I watched the trailer on youtube but couldn't find a legal way then.
