This sequel doubles down on its predecessor’s earnestness, to the point of alternating between grimly offing side characters at random and then getting all maudlin about its own pitilessness.

Offers up a proudly, even defiantly optimistic view of what comes after disaster, which can serve for the viewer as either cathartic fictional balm, or Pollyanna-ish fantasy — pick your poison.

This sequel may be focused more on emotion and character -- since the whole comet thing happened long ago -- but the problem is, none of this is compellingly rendered, and is forgotten when convenient.

It works as survival entertainment with a decent pace and some effective moments. [Full review in Spanish]
