Thoughts
This is an enigma of a movie - I have never know a film that I loathed so much and yet had something so wonderful in it, yes, I’m talking about Death. Every scene that Death is in is brilliant, he’s a fab addition to the movie, but it just means that every scene he’s not in is a disappointment.
It’s a mess, tone is all over the place, there doesn’t really seem to be a point to it, they do some crazy stuff and, yea, not a fan, really. Glad to have watched it to be able to see the third one though, as the trailer looks much better.
