All the wonder and surprise of the first movie is gone. It's just aping the violence in other movies and other comic books.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
If it works at all, fitfully, it's because of the precociously talented and in-control Moretz, who basically carries the entire film on her own small shoulders.
Sequel offers exactly the blend of R-rated nastiness and candy-colored action fans expect.
Even the novelty of a deadly, blasphemous Hit-Girl wears off, and all that's left is over-the-top violence and under-the-belt humor.
What was once shocking now just elicits a shrug.
