While the second movie did have a real tie in to the first (which as I have previously said, did not work out), this does not take any cues from it's predecessors. Which is a good thing and makes it slightly better for having a sort of spin off approach to it. There are false expectations and a lot of red herrings, some might annoy you, because you might see them coming a long time before they arrive, but overall, this achieves what it set out to do.

While not as great as part 1, it does achieve something that part 2 never had: A connection (even if it's a small one) with our main characters. Too many twists get that a bit out of control, but overall this is worth a watch, with a different director this time around to ensure a different result/approach
