It's not awful, but it's still definitely the black sheep. It's tone is completely different and it also just feels like it's just the same characters (but kinda flanderisations of them too) rather than a natural progression of where the story should go next. The throughline between 1 and 3 is much more consistent, even more so if you skip 2.
2 isn't a bad film, but it's not a good sequel in my opinion, 3 however is a great sequel and a good ending point.
Yeah, I know it goes from "haha funny race" to "there's this terrorist here that's killing cars across the world" but guess what? I love that mission impossible shit
