  • Why? Because
  • Seen: Once or twice before. Now 13 December 2019      

       If the first one didn’t make a lot of sense this one probably makes even less but I’m not bothered. I’m just going to sit back, not think, and enjoy.
       Or not.
       It’s just endlessly boring.
       The only reason it doesn’t get 0* is that I’m sentimental about the first one (Reeves, Moss and Fishburne deserve so much better!). And Link (Perrineau) gets ½ * just because I like him.
      
1½ * of 5
