    Good plot, great CGI (if you're a fan of uber-CGI'ing just for the fun of it). Downside was not coming back with the original characters.
  • June 6, 2007
    This sequel blew, BIG time. The story-line sucked, and they didn't even have the same actor playing the Lawnmower Man.

    Sequel to the CGI based sci fi film that has nothing in common with it apart from the CGI. Some interesting cyber-punk inspired ideas, but it's executed far too amateurishly. Also, making the heroes a gang of irritating kids is the kiss of death.

    Not unlike the first one...just plain weird

    Check list for a crap sequel:
    1. No returning actors from the original? Check.
    2. No recurring supporting characters from the original? Check.
    3. Central premise has hardly any relevance to the original's? Check.
    4. The Number 2 is part of the title? Check.
    5. Direct-to-vid...( read more)eo release? Check
    6. Only reason for its production was greedy, chucklehead studio execs looking to cash in on a temporarily hot commodity? Check, check, check.
    7. It's existence trivializes the value of the first? Eeeh, depends on how much value the first initially had. It was one of the first movies to discuss the potential applications and dangers of this brand new technology called "virtual reality" a decade plus before Wii became part of the Christmas must-have gift-list. And it was a future crappy 007's first big American role...

    Quod erat demonstrandum, sequels almost always suck.

    no thanks not my thing
  • June 7, 2008
    Absolutely not interested
  • March 28, 2008
    How could they make a sequel to this movie? Is it any wonder the original cast wouldn't come back? They should have let it go after the first bad movie.
  • March 24, 2008
    not nearly as good, or deep, as the 1st.
  • March 14, 2008
    Not as good as the first one.
