RATING: 4/5
Just finished watching on Blu-Ray (rental, no 3D glasses). There are a lot of lost effects by watching 2D version. It is definitely a movie geared towards young boys. We were a little disappointed to not have any villain in the movie and there was not much of a back story. Without seeing the original first, there would be some things you might not get or understand. They talk more about "Max" a character that connects the new people to the earth, but they don't tell you much about original scientist that discovered it from the first movie and how apparently that was the start of the book. Overall, it was not bad. Maybe it was ruined from watching the original first. I did not seem to be on the edge of my seat during it.
