2. No, it was very good -

And I won't provide spoilers in my answers about it.

Very tight, but you have to pay attention to everything, especially the bantering. I think they probably didn't like the fact that you had to pay attention to the subtlties in the middle of action; that is hard for some folks. It's like a puzzle; one action, one word, one location stop that seemed throw-away can come back later as a major plot device.

Yeah, it's silly and fun and makes fun of itself in a lot of ways.

Lots of suprises. Fun dialoge. The main difference we found between this one and the first movie is that both the arrival of the charactors and the city of Los Vegas played such a major part in the first movie, where in this movie, most of your charactors had been established in the previous one, and you didn't have Vegas.

If you liked the first movie, you'll like this one.

So, without Spoilers - what was NPR's problem?

5. Best time to get the best seats.
No crowds, cheaper prices.
Besides, I'm not working for a few weeks, between jobs due to Management screwing up this summer when they should have been looking ahead six months. Hubbie's disabled, so it makes it much easier.

We'll probably be seeing some other movies, if the holiday costs aren't too much.

6. Nice
We do Sunday afternoons.

Just saw National Treasure - you need to suspend disbelief to watch it, but it's fun.
