Reviews

Ryan Cracknell wrote in the Apollo Guide that the film has no connection with the first film. The characters are stereotypical, the representations are bad.

The lexicon of international films criticized the “uninspired staging”, which mogle itself “with many inconsistencies over time”. In addition, the interest in the "sometimes involuntarily funny" film would quickly wane due to the "listless actors" as well as the "unimaginative script without inner tension".
