I didn't catch the original in theaters, so while I know 15 minutes have been added, I'm not exactly sure which 15 minutes are new. I was impressed by the effects, which were among the best I've seen. I thought that the storyline was engaging, the action only a little over-the-top (and therefore within expectations), and I am actually looking forward to the sequel now. Nicely done. 102686@blogcritics.org Fri, 10 Dec 2004 17:34:37 EST
