#2 was nothing short of fantastic - just as good if not better than the first. Go see it!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

2D is good enough, rushed

My kids and I are fans of the cartoon. Here's the bullet points:
- 3D not necessary (lame)
- story line is rushed
- not enough character development
- special effects were merely sufficient
- go see it, but don't expect LOTR quality
Good points:
They stuck to the story line & basic morals
Acting and aciton sequences are pretty good
Details on special effects are quite good
Not so good points:
Action sequences are pretty short
Special effects are used sparingly
Very little is explained
My humble opinion:
This series has blockbuster potential. If you're going to make a potentially epic series of films, do it right. Clearly either budget constraints or a lack of pre-screening from fans left this film short. The nail's not in the coffin yet, but the next Book will really need to be improved upon. I hope to see a 2.5-3 hr effort for the next installment.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This movie was pumped as a special effects extravaganza...it did not disappoint. IMAX 3D was quite expensive, but worth it. If it weren't so darned expensive, the kids and I would've stuck around to watch it again. Simply a beautiful movie...lush fantastic environments, interesting creatures, cool mechs, amazing action sequences...all seemlessy integrated. Acting was OK, but I wasn't there for the acting. The kids (15,8,6) which usually have difficulty staying awake or keeping their attention on the screen didn't blink. We loved this movie and highly recommend everyone to see it.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
