I saw this film 2 weeks prior to going on a snowboarding holiday, so for me it was really just to get my mind in mode for my holiday. The film boasts some sweet snowboarding skills, throughout the films in the action scenes. These moments were great, a bit like watching extreme sports channel. Sadly the story was quite honestly awful, the acting was generally alright, with a fairly small cast. This film is apparently comedy, at least it tries to be comical, but it seems like the comedy and the storyline was written by a teenager. The story lacks any depth or purpose and the comedy struggles to be anything more than a small snigger a few times during the movie. It might be worth renting just to see the snowboarding action, but then again there are plenty of movies out there that are totally devoted to snowboarding stunts and don't feature a UN-funny badly written story.
I saw the first film and to be honest i loved every minute of it, so when i heard that they were making a second i was more than exited. Now to be honest i expected this film to be twice as good as the first, maybe i was just a little optimistic. But id say it has to be a complete replica in standards to the other, plus the fact it has a great new story. So if you loved the first then you'll love this one just as much, the plot is fresh and new and yet again takes you around europe as jason bourne is chased. Its again another original story for a original idea. If anything it dosent do much more than the first but if you the kinda person who liked the second version of a game as much as the first well its kinda like that. I give it 9/10 simply because it is just another great movie Robert Ludlum, definitely worth going to the cinemas to watch!
