Thinner.....
Good to see most of them back together. It looks great, has very similar tension and pace.
It doesn't live up to the amazing series, though. Definitely suffers some thin spots that are not internally consistent (fundamental, very basic police errors... ridiculous) and a needlessly 'uber- villian' that just doesn't come off as having the power that the writer(s) give him.
These failings are unfair to viewers, and to devotees of the series.
It's good, probably mainly because we're eager for the series to return. Without seeing the series first, this movie is less engaging.
