I thought the original was pretty but otherwise forgettable. What’s consensus among viewers for the sequel? Great? Worth watching if you’re bored? Skip?

    Rewatched the first one, because I couldn’t have told you anything about it. Then watched the second one. It’s the same damn movie with different colored Navi. Honestly don’t know how they are going to make like 5 or 6 of them.

    It’s mindless and pretty, but not deep, and DEFINITELY not original.

      Oh, but this time the giant untamable beast that will be tamed by the White Saviour is in the water.

    It’s not exactly deep or super meaningful and I probably won’t remember much about the plot in a few years but I definitely enjoyed it when I watched it a couple days ago!

    I saw most of it on Disney. It’s okay. I wish they had different bad guys since it felt like the same bad guys all over again. It’s worth watching if you are bored. Personally, I have more fun watching my favorite YouTubers when I am bored.

    I enjoyed the first film, but found the sequel boring, mainly due to weak writing and shallow characterization. The visuals were nice. If you have a good sized screen, it might make a good backdrop while socializing.

    Visually appealing with ground breaking CGI but same average story as most movies these days.

    I enjoyed it well enough at the time, though it didn’t leave much of an impression on me afterwards

    A weird thing I realised, though — the visuals of the CGI forests and oceans don’t really do anything for me personally (though many others seem to like them a lot, and I’m sure they are very technically impressive!). But… I absolutely loved the CGI spaceship shots at the very beginning. More of those please!
