The quality in terms of acting, and especially video quality, have upped. Well and truly. But all the subtelty of the first movie has been abandoned **hard**. It all sort of balances out, equating to an experience that's about as good as _The Hamiltons_, but for different reasons. _Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._
59/100 This sequel to "The Hamiltons" was surprisingly much better. Our family, inflicted with a disease that forces them to drink human blood, are on the run again. This time they travel to Europe in hopes of finding people like them. There, they meet the Stuarts ...and let the fun begin. Good story, including a nice romantic sup-plot, fast-paced, lots of blood and mayhem and a few twists kept me entertained throughout. I liked it. -- DrNostromo.com
