Carrell was hysterical. No, it's not the same as the tv series, but I wasn't expecting that. Great action scenes. Anne Hathaway did a decent job -- wasn't expecting that, either.
It was a lot better than the first one because it was a lot darker, and the special effects were a lot better. i might have enjoyed it more because I didn't read the book. the one thing that REALLY dissapointed me near the end was that chronicles of narnia (god help them) ACTUALLY RIPPED OFF LORD OF THE RINGS.
