Ancora più bello

If you've seen the first one, you know the characters ... and maybe you fell in love with them. It does try to be inclusive ... although it also tried to blur lines. And with this second movie it kind of does away with any message we were given with the first movie. Which is a shame. It does try to give us something new and it somewhat succeeds ... but the central message from the first one is gone.

There is constructed drama and things that should not be an issue at all .. but they sort of do work, in the sense of they hold the movie together. Actually the central story is not the one saving this, but a side story ... that actually deserves the out of my league tag ... without this plot the movie would have felt even weaker.

Colorful characters aside, cliches en masse ... and predictability ensues ... well you can have fun with this, if you suspend your disbelief.
