Thoughts
This was a pretty good sequel, more intriguing puzzles and dangerous circumstances. I think it didn’t quite match up to the first movie simply because the characters are wiser and know what’s coming, whereas them figuring it out was part of the fun of the original. But it stacks up and introduces some new people to worry about. It’s not going to win any awards but a fun way to while away an hour.
