That Rarity...A Superior Sequel! Any Others?!
While like many I LOVE the original "Short Circuit" (and although the IMDB general rating would disagree), HAVE to say I find this film the rarity that is... a superior sequel!!
Of course it helps that the original writers were back on board (with an obvious LOVE of their main character i.e. Johnny 5) and that we have such a stalwart as Kenneth Johnson directing... but have to say that I found this a sweet, fun, joyous and so much more enjoyable and entertaining sequel above what came before!
While they say a sequel rarely ever betters its original... to the likes of "Empire Strikes Back", "Godfather 2" and "Superman 2" I might add "Short Circuit 2" to be held up to negate this!?
Anybody got any other (of those rare occasion) sequels you might note that improve on their former counterparts to support this argument?!!
