I loved the first movie and had high hopes for this one. I was a little disappointed. But the IMAX Experience made up for the weakness in plot. Whenever things got a little silly I'd just stare at the fabulous picture quality. I was a little surprised at the size of the screen - it was much smaller than the IMAX planetariums I'm used to, but it was still beautiful to watch. In general, it was a good way to spend a couple of hours on a summer night, but if you are looking for anything more than great special effects, look elsewhere.
