Wow, was it that good? I thought the reviews were that it was alright, but not as good as the first one. Or was I mistaken? Or was I right, but they just found a good spot where no other real good movies were out?
Without trying to spoil much. There is definitely some overlap in reusing some of the structure of the first movie and disney playing it safe, but the themes it hits on, hit really hard, I would imagine even more so for some adults.
They definitely hit VERY hard. My gf cried in the theatre.
Hell, I remember that happened to me in the first movie 😭
I thought it was on par with the first. Very good imo. Without spoilers I can say they depicted some challenging emotions very well. My family is filled with anxiety, so much that pretty much everyone is on some form of medication. Needless to say, this movie resonated well with my family.
Keep in mind that Dune 2 didn't benefit from minivans full of kids showing up to see it.
True. Especially if it's like the only kids movie out right now.
I would classify it as "good, but not as good as the first one". And notably better than Pixar's recent efforts.
