A big downgrade
D4V1D24117 November 2022
I had my heart broken as a kid when I first saw this movie. I absolutely love the first 2 and I was really excited when it was released. On one hand you can see the upgrade in the animation; if the second one was a big improvement over the fist one in all ways possible, the improvements in this one are less notorious, but if you pay attention you can see that everything has more details, all characters move smoother, the backgrounds are better, etc. But the problems come with the jokes and the story; there are 2 main plots in the movie, one that is interesting and one that is pure filler with the side characters. The first one with Leo is actually related to the story and the problem with the Mummies, he has things to do and makes the story move forward, but on the other hand, the other story with the side characters doesnt work at all, they are just there, doing nothing, they are supposed to have the comedic moments but these ones also dont work because they are just not funny, thats it, they dont make you laugh not even once. Which is a big let down, cause the second one managed to improve a lot in this aspect. Near the end of the movie, it greatly improves, having all the characters together, doing THINGS, with not a lot of jokes and with a more serious tone which works really well, but the final part doesnt save this movie. I really wished I loved it, but with such a bad story I just cant; the part with Leo and the other girl make the movie tolerable but thats not enough to make this a good movie.
