I managed to snag the last seat amongst the back and middle rows during my opening night screening and the whole place was packed. To the point where there were people willing to occupy all of the front row seats and crane their necks upwards uncomfortably for nearly three hours straight.
I went in with zero expectations, I didn't even watch any of the trailers for the sequel and I think that this movie is a WHOLE LOT BETTER than the first one. I won't mention or even hint at any details because I want you guys to enjoy the theater experience as much as I did, but I found the first film to involve mostly set up and exposition of how the futuristic, planetary universe worked and the introduction of all of these families/groups with their own agendas. So it felt kinda boring at times.
Now Part 2, everything kicks off. All of the previous setup finally pays off. Only thing that took me out of the film was them calling that skinny French boy "the Mahdi" but that's in the first movie anyway lol
Give the new one a chance if you thought the first movie was a bore.
You must watch it on the biggest screen you can find. There's a cinema near me where you can watch it in varying screen sizes and I chose the most widescreen option. I've got no regrets.
