I love the series, and love the first movie more. So I was looking forward to the second movie but I have mixed feelings after seeing it. All the way through I was waiting for this one to come to life and it kind of roused itself for the ending. The main problem was the story - it was there but it just wasn't executed very well. At the beginning there are a trail of bodies but you don't see much action from the robbers only the aftermath which is why the first film was so great - the bad guys were BAD and it showed you why but the most you get in this film is a few shots of them shooting at the ceiling? However there is a lot of banter in the film, its really very funny and it is always a joy to watch John Thaw and Dennis Waterman as Regan and Carter. At the death I was satisfied but i feel it was probably rushed, lacked direction, lacked the gut punch effect of the first movie and had too many pointless scenes in it. Its a shame really I would like to have seen more movies from this team with a bit more passion and focus in it.
