I enjoyed the first movie in this series. It had sweet and funny moments to go along with the terrifying. The characters were wonderful and the beasts imaginative and even awe inspiring. This movie however, has no plot, senseless violence, zero character development and was totally worthless. I will NOT go see the next installment unless I hear that they are improving it greatly. Furthermore, if you have small children, do NOT take them to this. We had idiot parents with very small crying children all around us. It's PG-13 for a reason.
