HOLY SMOKE, THIS FILM COMES AT YOU LIKE A FREAKIN' FREIGHT TRAIN!
It's scene after scene after scene after scene that you cannot take your eyes off of, so before I knew it two hours had lapsed and my chicken tenders were cold!
WHAT A BLAST!
Man, I love this franchise.
Very meta!
It's clear they really put a lot of time into this one. It feels like it had a massive budget compared to the rest.
Plus, at 2 hours and 3 minutes (and a 7.6 on IMDB), it seems their bet paid off.
Our 6:00 PM show was SOLD OUT, as were most this evening.
Gonna be a wildly successful installment, I gua-ran-tee!
p.s. 03/12/2023 Update: Welp, there you have it... the franchise's largest opening weekend ever.
