I am quite amused by them.. I like how they mix in Odin and Loki. The suggestion of an elaborate back story, without sharing that back story entirely, makes it more interesting.

we liked the sequel... the purpose of those movies is to get one to laugh, and that they succeeded at...


anyways, its a bit hard to describe them...

but think of it like this... its a mask that when worn, allows the user to operate on cartoon physics instead of regular physics... generally with the same kinds of jokes... portable holes, impossibly large pockets, guns with "bang!" flags, etc...

the sequel has even more of those jokes...

yes, with the mask on, jim carrey looked better...

but its not the adult one that is important in the second movie... its the baby, loki and the dog...

Indeed, but even so. The movie is more directed at children rather then teens/adults as Jim Carrey's was. Or am I mistaken?

Seconded.

First one is a must watch, the second one you can live without unless you have nothing else to do.

It is a given 99% of the time that compared to the first a sequel is nothing.

I too enjoyed the first one, and Cameron Diaz was AMAZINGLY hot in that film. I've never really rated her, but I mean OMG what a Babe!!!

The Mask two was a terrible film, and shouldn't have been made.

Going to look at pictures of Cameron Diaz

I'm sorry, but there's just something weird about her mouth.. as though someone yanked it at the edges but it's yet to fall back into place.
