I thought this was a fine sequel to compliment the original. The original was better but it is very rare to see a sequel be better than the first. I thought it was innovative to see how the human race would have progressed after gaining the alien technology. The only issue I had was there was to much emphasis on story lines such as David's dad that really had no relevance to the overall plot and kind of was a waste of time. Like just because you have a sequel doesn't mean all of the original characters need to return. Will Smith was missed but him not being in the film didn't hurt it at all. Actually I always thought his role in the first film was overrated. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys Sci fi and just an overall enjoyable film.
