O:G 5 - Continuity returns!
So for the first time since part 2, we have direct continuity with the previous film intact. I'm a fan of that, however, again with the weird re-casting Chico in a new role, she actually plays 2 separate roles in this one. I guess we're just meant to understand he has a definite type.I found the pacing to be in line with the 4th film, for the most part, and the plot was fun despite its over-familiarity at this point. I can see how audiences might have been losing interest and/or patience with the series by this point, however, so it's not a surprise that they ended the franchise at 6. Overall, I do tend to think the entries are stronger when they at least acknowledge past entries, so this one is amongst the strongest of them.
I do believe if they had linked all of these films more closely together it may have been possible to keep them going for a longer time. Fear of breaking what seemed to be working well is what probably did them in. Still, it's a very good series and I'm looking forward to watching the final instalment soon.
