2 Movie - Apocalipto

However, the magic quickly fades. Where the original was lean and relentless, Apocalypto 2 bloats its runtime with unnecessary subplots—a vengeful high priest, a star-crossed romance, and a prolonged shipboard sequence that feels like a different movie. The silent, propulsive tension of the first film is replaced by heavy-handed dialogue about "destiny" and "the old ways."

★★☆☆☆
