If the film is divided into three parts, the first part carries forward the story from the previous film and the last part advances the story, but the middle part is its weakest point, not only it bores the audience. Rather, due to this, the coming moments also fade.
If you’ve seen the first film in the series recently, you’ll realize that this film is sorely lacking in memorable moments, and by the time such moments arrive, it’s too late.
The quality of the animation in the film is unmatched, the film was not released in 3D, but it feels like it was made in 3D when the action scenes come. , the film attracted the audience.
