This was a major disappointment because of its inability to live up to part one. I would've expected it to surpass the first part even but I guess it could not. It has lost its essence to the humor and the cleverness of the cases. Though some parts or reasons could be typical because some murders could happen because of misunderstandings or other stuffs in life, but it was too much of a joke to have most of the cases too simple. It reduced their team down to brainless characters. It was too silly for its own good since part I was serious for the majority of the time, but it was just some characters behaving the way they usually did and felt like it was not wrong. Sonija's character became so goofy that made it a big joke. Though I really love the chemistry between Roger and Sonija, but making her too goofy at times killed it. She was supposed to be the serious one. (Yes, she did learn to relax with Roger around but not to the extent that she was jumping around when she found out she was back at D.I.E. A bit too overboard.)

The additional cast were not that bad since they were juniors and did not expect to strive 100% since they still needed to learn from their seniors. However, making Zac Kao somewhat like Kenneth's character in the past was a bit too lame. The joke with the whole "Jackson" matter was overkilled. They did that for the humor in part I but yet it was so subtle that if you weren't paying attention, it was okay. But this time, they threw it in too many times that was annoying. Him Law and Macy Chan were enjoyable at times since they were funny yet enough with it. Icy was a good addition too since she was an interesting character - totally different on and off work. I enjoyed her moments when she had to tolerate Roger's smart mouth running. My only complaint is in adding the new characters, they had sacrificed Stephen and Mimi's screen time again. (I meant together, not individually.)

Was I the only one feeling Derek was robbed again? The three Kwoks were supposed to lead the drama but somehow, I felt he just got knocked down again with the side stories. Yes, he was still the righteous guy who worshipped Bruce Lee, but somehow his character has lost its essence due to side stories. When I learned that Margie was not going to be in the sequel, I was really disappointed. But later, I learned about Derek pairing up with Nancy, I was getting my hopes up after seeing some photos of different scenes. I have liked their chemistry in 'Face to Fate' though it was somewhat tragic. So that was a reason to look forward to. But it seemed too trying in here to just rush Derek's character off into moving on. Why don't they just make him wait for Margie since she'll finish with her studying later? They did not make Nancy's character strong enough to take over - though they did try to emphasize matters at various points. I felt it was missing something. The whole idea with Derek moving on and trying to get over Margie made their get together in part I a big fat joke since there was no point in getting together because it did emphasized how he valued relationships and how hard it was for them to get together - with various obstacles. Now the whole thing again with a different girl? I wouldn't mind if it happens again since no one is guarantee to date one time and meet the one, but the story was just too trying that it became too much. Referring back to the last point, I would've prefer that Derek focuses on his righteous acts and wait for Margie so they could increase Stephen and Mimi's screen time together a bit more.

The cases? Things only get a tad more interesting around the two last cases however it was a bit repetitive with Derek's mother's family. It was like they were running out of things to do or they just want to let history repeat itself again yet they were trying to get clever. Although I only watched 'Saw I' but I could feel it stealing the formula of the Saw movies. That was a bit disappointing. (Though we could say all psychos are nuts that way but having it down to the details with the pattern? Eh....)

Am I watching if there's part 3? Probably but won't have much hope. It's just that the three Kwoks are so addicting to watch!

This was surprisingly better than the first part - in my opinion. It was possibly because of how the father-in-law is no longer around. Of course Mr. 13 is not any better with his sabotage schemes and rude behaviors but it was better for them because they could choose not to care about him. And maybe because Johnson's more tolerable than the father-in-law's character that made me like this part more. They kept most of the characters' personalities intact for the most part. My only complaint is Mr. 13 since I barely remember about him being more likable. Or it could be because they needs someone to play the ruthless part after the father-in-law is out so they had to sacrifice Johnson. However, he turned out all right in the end, which was convincing enough since there were enough events leading up to that point. Although there were still traces of his smart-mouth running but that was him, he could not change that or it would not be him at all.

Like Factors:

• Sunny Chan and Jessica Hsuan as a couple. I really like their collaboration in the past part and could see the chemistry but was turned off at the story paved out because of their unreasonable behaviors at various points in the previous part. It carried over for this part also but I like how their relationship is developed into something deeper than just the usual one night stand and trying to make it worked afterward for the sake of the baby.
  
• Johnson Lee and Joyce Tang as a couple. It was strange at first although I could see it happening because of their characters and background. However, I'm glad it worked out in the end since he curved his attitude a bit. Besides, he really cared for her so it made sense that he is capable of taking care of her and giving her the proper attention, making sure she won't suffer in the future. 
• How the Ko family and the Ho family still treats Hei Man and Sau Sau as their daughters. It was a mistake from the hospital and it was irreversible but it was great to see how both family still accept and care for both as their own daughters despite what happened. 
• Gill Mohindepaul Singh as Ap Ba Deen. Although he only appeared bits and pieces here and there but I really enjoyed his character and performance in here. Very funny. One of the funniest scenes must be him diving into the pool to save Ho Si Fu (Hui Siu Hung) because he was instructed by Hoi Tung (Mandy Wong) to do so.
  
• Mandy Wong as Ng Hoi Tung. I really like her although this is the first time watching her. Although she was a bit too materialistic at times with handbags and all, but she really cared for her god-father. She was also very funny in her performance at various times. I hate those tricks with the whole one night stand and then the whole dramas afterward but I really like this one since Mr. 13 deserved some of it too since he was always so foul-mouthed toward others. (Of course nothing happened but he took her words for it and was so burned out by her demands later.)
  

Dislike Factors:

• The ongoing thing with CK (Ken Wong) and Bowie (Natalie Tong). I don't know. Although I'm all right with their characters but the pairing seemed odd to me. Are they continuing the idea with how Bowie's into older man? But glad she matured over time and how he learned to stay away from the sticky situations. 
• The fact that everyone was DNA testing happy. Yes, it was the proof in uncovering some of the most unbelievable mistakes made by the hospital ages ago. But it was like everyone and anyone could do it. It made me feel like they abused it too much and wondered if that was how it worked over there.
