I wouldn't call it a slap in the face - we knew they were doing a 3rd film - but it was certainly unexpected. But regardless of that - I thoroughly enjoyed this film. Perhaps not as charming as the first film, but only in that this just felt much more adult (as Mile's was growing, of course) and it hit hard. I adored the different visual styles in this one - it continues to be a visual treat for this corner of the franchise.
