The final battles almost rival what we saw in the previous film and there's no question that they pack a lot of energy and excitement. The film does finally pick up during its final act and this is where thing get really good. I honestly thought there was very little character development and I thought too many of the scenes just kept dragging on with dialogue that just wasn't all that interesting or thrilling.

With that said, I did find the previous installment to be an extremely entertaining movie and certainly the best of the series to date.
