'Summer' is better than 'Spring', who knew? I've finally got around to checking out the sequels to that latter 1969/1970 movie, which is an Estonian picture I watched three months (time flies!) ago as part of my 'Around the World in 1261 Days' personal challenge (gonna need to rework that number, failing miserably in getting countries ticked off lately!). I didn't overly like the original, though this inaugural follow-up is good. It's cool to see the actors all grown up compared to their showings as children six years prior, I love that all the key peeps reprised their respective roles (albeit minorly for previous lead Arno Liiver). I found most of them fairly irritating last time out due to them being annoying kids, obviously here there is no such problem - their acting had improved, as one would anticipate of course. I would've liked to have seen more of Liiver's Arno, though to be honest I did enjoy Aare Laanemets as Joosep being front and centre - probably an upgrade, in fairness. Margus Lepa, Riina Hein and Kaarel Karm are the pick of the rest of those onscreen. Unlike with the first flick, no cast member or character would fall under any negative heading for me, which is naturally a positive. Here's hoping I like 'Autumn' and 'Winter' as well, the latter is my favourite time of year so that ought to be a good omen.
