I was not expecting this to be as good as the first movie. We ended up enjoying this one a lot. The story was good and well written with a very good contrast of the darkness of human trafficking with the developing relationship of two brothers.
Drama and comedy wove seamlessly throughout the script giving surprises with both.
The ending was knit together in a satisfying way leaving us hoping for a third movie.
The first hour was entertaining and good acting with some famous actors in it like Kevin Costner and Russell Crow. However, the movie was about an hour too long. It was 60 minutes of fighting and destruction at the end.
I felt like the personal relationships should have been more developed. The end was not as emotional as it could have been if they had spent more time on how Superman interacted with the characters.
I grew up watching Hazel. I loved her personality and how she loved the family that she worked for. They loved her too. I also loved how she interacted with the characters that came by the house. It was a funny and heartwarming show.
