It's such long-winded nonsense relying on the fact that there are some characters from the previous installment - well, actually two, and one of them is Number 5. It's not very amusing, more just a bit crazy, and of course, there's a good ending. It's standard, family-friendly, and not surprising in any way. Even the nostalgia didn't help here.
