Summarize the second part in one sentence: After reading it, emmm, what did I watch?

When I watched the first one, I was completely attracted by the story of entering the game to upgrade and fight monsters, and the characters were more contrasting. So as soon as the second part came out, I watched it right away, and as a result... I didn't see any innovation at all.

The following contains slight spoilers, don't read if you don't like it! ! ! !

Compared with the exciting and exciting first part, I think the second part is a collection of cliché stories! All stepped on the thunder

1. In order to regain self-confidence, the male protagonist decides to enter the game regardless of the danger that he may not be able to return to the real world (what?? What brain circuit? Although Dushi is handsome), as a result, the female protagonist casually enlightens the male protagonist with a few words, and the male protagonist is relieved... ...emm, yes, yes, after all, you are a married couple, and all those misunderstandings matter!

2. The male protagonist's grandfather and his friend, the two old men, had misunderstandings at the beginning, and then they quarreled when they entered the game, and finally the misunderstanding was resolved. He also got a salvation crystal to save Yumanji. In the end, his friend chose to stay in the game because he was seriously ill in reality. My friend Milo stayed in the game, I thought his grandfather would stay too! Mistake)

3. The plot is not enough, just give some jokes and new ideas. As a result, the game settings were the same, and the game characters were not as distributed as in the first game. As a result... there was some electrified water, and the characters changed as soon as the electricity was turned on! The male protagonist got the halo and turned into a boulder again. Alas... that's also true, the purpose of your coming to the game will not be achieved, hahaha~

4. At the end of the boss fight, I wondered how it could be worth two mouthfuls of popcorn, but I haven't swallowed this one, eh? ended? That's right...it's over before it even started.

Personal experience:

Not thrilling, not exciting, not new, not funny.

No loss of control, no life-threatening, no desperation, all alive.

But if you look at Dwayne Johnson and kill, just watch it...
