Yeah, I can see why people dislike this installment out of all three. The humor and charm from the first two films didn't seem to be present in this one. Although, when I think about it, there may have a specific reason for that. I think it could be that the premise this time around was more personal. No, that wouldn't make sense. The premise of the first film was arguably more personal, yet it had the humor and charm that started it all. At the same time, I guess that would explain why the first film still had a humorous tone and charmful atmosphere despite the premise being personal. It was the first film, so those two aspects had to be established, and a focal point. Either way, whatever the reason, I think the downfall of this film was not keeping the iconic humorous tone and the charmful feeling that made the first film, especially, and the second film, what they are. Overall, one aspect that I wasn't a big fan of is how the same premise was used in all three films. Someone Axel knows gets shot, he's on the case, and that's the main focus for the rest of each film. It isn't necessarily a bad premise, there just isn't room to make it as entertaining as the first time around with each time that follows it. In the first film, it felt natural, and rightfully so. The first of something always does, even if it has been done before, more or less, just in something different, entirely. I will say this, though: It was still enjoyable, just not to the extent that the first two films were. I can understand why people disliked it, and I respect that, but I do think that there's a sense of harshness with some people's rating of it, and in some cases, perhaps with what is said regarding it, too. With that being said, you do you.
