Introduction:
Nowadays, there is so much content to watch online because of streaming websites like Netflix, Amazon Prime, Apple and so on.
As there is so much choice, I am very selective about what I watch.
In fact, I only watch something after reading the reviews.
When did you watch it? and What genre was the movie?
In the first movie, there was a constant thrill and excitement.
My eyes were glued to the screen throughout the movie.
However, this movie was a very slow.
Nothing happened in the first half and the although there was action in the second half, it barely lasted 15 minutes.
I think the main reason for my disappointment was my high expectations.
I watched the first movie four five times, because I loved it so much.
So naturally I was very hyped for the second movie.
If I didn’t compare it with the first movie, it was not a bad movie.
