Watch the SPOILER review on YouTube A fairly dull comedy with minimal laughs, that is also sorely lacking in the franchise’s trademark supernatural excitement. The plot moves pretty slowly as it sporadically drop pieces to the puzzle, only for things to move a warp speed once it gets to the third act. (It doesn’t help… Read More »
Watch the SPOILER review on YouTube An entertaining film that doesn’t have very many highs or lows and mostly skates-by somewhere in the middle.
