Well, I think the series has about shot its goo. This was the least compelling or entertaining of the trilogy. There was less "scenic" action and no spectacular chases or fistifcuffs (except for one fight). The characters were flat even though they loaded up the cast with Straithorn and Finney. This time around I think the story was hampered by the slimmer budget.The door is open for number four but everything has been done now. There is no point and after this weekend I doubt there will be much of a box.
I'm disappointed and will have to say Damon/Guillermo's Thursday night sketch on Kimmel was far better than the film.
