Review

lacked the visual and stylistic panache that the first had such a firm grasp of. that said, this film is still entertaining, has the obligatory surprise ending and keeps the characters interesting. like meet the fockers, the film took a little bit of time to get back into the groove that the first one had established, and once it did it wasn’t quite as on point as its predecessor, but it was still fun enough to be interesting. i wish that soderbergh’s direction was a little more snappy (gone are the stylistic inserts, the seemingly constant camera movement and the inventive wipes). it’s a popcorn movie.
