I've seen literally scores of movies like this. It goes along very well, until the last 15, when it becomes ridiculous and stupid.

That's this movie. It's a common problem with thrillers and mysteries, wrapping it up correctly. This movie is a total letdown at the end the same way seasons 7-8 ruined Game of Thrones. A stupid twist that completely undermines nearly 2 hours of character building. Lame.

Wow, I guess they think that being verbose means you are qualified to have your review posted. As if simply stating the obvious, quickly, makes you less qualified to have an opinion. Well, this is.

It's like all the stars are reprising a character they played in a movie or series already and the director thought, "I'll take other peoples' toys and make my own fun time sandbox creation." And the obvious DEI empowered totally 4th wall breaking character they added in the opening was silly. They had to show her be merciless and head shot a guy who was already down just to show us she's strong and tough, just like, well, you know the stale trope they've been pushing now since 2016. It completely stood out like an Irishman in the field along with slaves in Roots or something would stand out. Then it got boring. If you've never seen the last 50 years of gang/mob movies, then yeah, this is great. But it's really just another mob fam movie with actors playing roles they've already played in other things.

I like the first one well enough, but felt in under-delivered. Was hoping the 2nd run of it would be tighter with better pacing. They took all the flaws of the first movie and moved them to the front, and added run time. I was bored the entire time and started washing dishes and betting on WNBA.

It's flat, tedious, and drags on far longer than it needs to. There's too much going on and it's not handled well by the director.

When streaming services started wanting to become their own studios back in 2016ish, I told my son, "All the movies are about to be 5 to 7.5 out of 10s because corporate America will turn making movies into making big macs. This movie is a chicken club sandwich with southwest sauce and fries for a limited time type of movie.
