Not good
Definitely some wokeness but mostly, like all sequels it’s crap

The curse of the try-hard sequel
Desperately tries to recapture the first installment's enthusiasm, but turns the cultural archetypes into a gimmick.
Can't resist a jab a "men keeping superior women down", and a US president on the right wing as portrayed by the left, ie: quite close to actual left-wing dictators, really.
Also, Pedro Pascal. Aside from his personal convictions (I use the word in the loosest sense), this man (again, loosest sense) keeps being cast for confident, manly characters, whereas his whole demeanour reeks of a need for approval. Very offputting.
Funny thing, Egerton has voiced a gorilla playing Elton John, has played with Elton John in this movie (not sure they have actually met or needed to during shooting, though), and moved on to play Elton John in the biopic.
At this point, he might want to try on oversized glasses.
