thought 4 and 5 were better than 2 and 3, but after 2 and 3 most people didn't want to bother with 4 and 5 to find out.
**caveat, at least that's what i remember when i watch 4 and 5 when the came out on HBO or whatever. Haven't really watched them since. I paid to go see 2 and recall thinking, 'wtf? this is only really half a movie', and then having to wait to see 3 which was basically the other half, but was way overdone. After that, no more money from me - i waited for HBO or whatever (these all came out before streaming was a thing for you youngsters
)
