Garbage. Thoroughly disappointed.

The first one was good because it was realistic. This one was a little xXx-ish.

In the first one, they wrecked the 7 series. In the sequel, it seems as though the A8 had its own personal detailing team following it around. I mean, the car would ram walls and leap off buildings, yet at the following scenes it would be unscathed.

And the CG effects? Shit on the Discovery Channel is better.

Yep pretty much it.. I guess that W12 is indestructable!

the plane at the end??? it could have been just as good as the first, yet it seems they went out of thier way to cheese it up.

Delete everyone of those CG scenes and watch it again, I betcha the movie would have rocked

Saw it a few days ago. It was a great comedy. My wife and I liked it only because we got some good laughs out of some of the stunts. LOL
I agree with TriaXenginE. Kinda sucked..

yep, saw it before you posted.. I would have probably watched it anyway. If the first is strong, I at least have to give the second one a shot. I agree that the humour was good.

Did anyone notice how the W12 in the grille disappeared in every one of the stunt scenes? Guess they didnt want to F up an expensive car if something went wrong.
