The critics love this movie because of the good acting. However, the plot is merely a big tease. Story lines go nowhere. If you like to watch a family bicker and lie to each other, this will be your cup of tea. I thought the tea got cold.

I have to join the minority. This is a vastly over-rated movie. The acting is good but the plot is full of ridiculous twists and turns. I kept groaning. I would not recommend this to a friend.

I watched this after walking out of two other really terrible movies in a multiplex theater. Therefore, the movie did not have to be good to be an improvement. It met my low expectations for a lightweight film with some good (totally over-the-top) action sequences but an unbelievable plot.

I went to this movie with low expectations but it didn't even live up to them. I didn't mind that it was very violent but I did mind that the opening sequences were so ridiculous and predictable. I can't speak for the latter sequences, because I walked out after twenty minutes to try to find something more entertaining.

I went to the theater to see a different movie but walked out of it because it was bad. I then decided to give HTTM2 a try despite its poor reviews. It was much worse. I was the only person in the theater, and for good reason. I spent more time watching the previews than the movie. Movies can be crude but still funny but this one was gross and humorless.

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

I rarely bother to post a review, but this movie was so terrible I felt obligated to try to help other people avoid wasting their money. Although there is one interesting plot development, overall this movie is one of the most preposterous I have ever seen. It is full of plot flaws and inconsistencies. Although I saw one professional reviewer who thought the car chases were great, my girlfriend and I thought there were too many, that they were too long, and that they were so unbelievable that it was hard to be excited by them. As a minor example of a plot flaw, how could there possibly be such long car chases in a busy major city with no police in sight. Regarding the acting, January Jones can't -- she's a wooden post. Liam Neeson does emote a lot, but it's one note that gets tiresome. Diane Kruger is the only redeeming factor in the entire movie.
