Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend if you've seen the first one.

This is clearly a lower budget version of the first movie, so no celebrities, or complex camera shots. The story also feels a bit lower quality. I like an idiot chases after the "one that got away" story, and having it go through the isolationism of the woods is full of potential, but I feel like the opportunity was wasted by having the English guy interrupting the best friend arc, and the goons ruining the isolation of the forest.

Don't get me wrong, the story is well written, and they balance the complexity between the story threads rather well, it just doesn't result in the thing I wanted from it.

There is plenty of good humor, romance, and awkward moments to keep the story interesting.
