I had attended a screening of this movie last week. This was a bit darker and less funnier than the first movie. Lack of competition might help this one at the box office.For me, This is definitely a better movie than DM2, but DM2 had the minion and the fun factor which attracted kids. This one might scare off small kids with high dose of violence (for a PG movie, not KILL BILL type). Overall a B+ for me.if you are going with small kids (below 5), 2D will be better. It has lot of action sequences and they throw nets and fire on your face many times. some kids were crying at our screening.
