Not sure what people were expecting with the sequel and why they say this movie isn't as good as the first. It's every bit as good! Sure, there were a lot of similarities, but I'm pretty sure that was the point, especially with all of the "again!" stuff and references to the first movie. I wasn't sure that bringing Eddie from the Vegas Chapel in to be Samir the Bartender was a good choice, but all-in-all, I thought it was great entertainment.
Every bit as good as the first one. Initial reports I'd heard were not-so-good, but those haters don't know what they're talking about. This movie had good story lines and awesome action sequences and if you go into this movie expecting two hours of fun and entertainment, you will not be disappointed. I think Don Cheadle was more believable as a Lt. Col. than Terrance Howard, and he did a better job at delivering those one-liners than TH did. It was great to see more of Pepper Potts and Happy Hogan in this one too! Awesome movie that I will see again on the big screen, and then buy on Blu-ray when it comes out.
