Honestly, not too sure what my partner and I were expecting, but we figured it would be a fun, empowering, and sweet movie.
Instead, we got a preachy, confused, mess that oscillated between comedy and social commentary in a wildly jarring way.
Unfortunately, I think the writers took the opportunity to project their feelings onto the audience. The message seems dated and naive. At best it's a bit of an eye roll, at worst it's an attempt to shame young girls into a self defeating thought process.
Acting, sound track, set design, and some bits of comedy were really good, and there is some genuine cinema in there.

I agree with the general consensus that the plot was pretty much exactly the same as the first movie. Literally, some scenes could have been chopped and changed between movies and no one would have realised.
However i would say the general humour in this movie was just as good if not better which i was very happy with. Especially with the greater role of Mr Chow who was incredibly funny.
I definitely don't think this movie was as good as the first, mostly because we already knew the general plot, and part of the humour of the first movie was that we really didn't know what was going to happen.
Again the acting was strong the effects were good and the city views were spectacular in theory - the streets were obviously very dirty and overcrowded but the camera work was good.
Don't worry about this being a hugely disappointing sequel, i would highly recommend watching, especially if you have not yet scene the first.
Good comedy big thumbs up.
