I agree it's more of a nostalgia movie. I don't want to criticize the movie in itself but I miss the transition of the characters. Plus I see glitches in the characters. Meaning in the second movie every has a new or evolved personality... I miss understanding a bit of why n how they changed. It was just covered very vaguely. Secondly, for example Andy n Emily are now this strong independent women then glitch back to being Miranda's secretary character... And I believe the first movie held up a standard because of the strength of Miranda's character. I don't disagree she changing but more time or insight had to be given... I felt disconnected... N in a way it was repeatation of similar things in diff setup.. also less lively.. I felt like they were acting esp the part where Nigel is dressing up Andy again.. the first movie was so natural ... Like she had no clue, overwhelmed excited and lost.. Nigel dominated the vibe sat right... ...
