Viewing Notes

The comedy, while still very much a part of the film, is more restrained in this “original” to the first movie and doesn’t work quite as well. It’s still a lot of fun to watch these back to back. I hope they get released on Blu-ray together as a double feature. I can’t really imagine watching them in any other way.
