We saw it, we enjoyed it, we will watch it again. However..."thin" compared to the original? The first movie was "grungy cop chases bad guys through city". It was as thin as they come. Pretty, unusual, poetic, but thin none the less. If anything, this one has a far more complex storyline, even if it seems somewhat derivative. I will give you that ultimately this one was "many groups hunting for the same treasure chest" trope, so being far more complex still makes it thin as well...noir ultimately is never very complex.
So, without spoilers, did anyone else feel that there were some MAJOR plotlines that got ignored at the end? Entire characters where I don't know what happened to them or where they are? Seemed kinda important to me...
