Fantastic!
Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
