This movie was very entertaining and was well worth paying the premium price to see at the theater. I'm not a big reader but, after watching this sequel last night, I'm on a mad hunt for the books today. I'm not giving it 5 stars for only 1 reason. There is a ridiculous pause before each character responds with another. Really annoying at first but, forgotten more and more as the movie continues. Other than that one discrepancy, this is a VERY GOOD MOVIE!
