Beetlejuice Beetlejuice

I really wanted to like Beetlejuice Beetlejuice after being a HUGE fan of the original since my childhood. This unfortunately was not the case only making it half an hour in to the movie. Questionable acting from great actors and just almost felt like a parody of the original. I would recommend just sticking to the original movie.

This film is going to join the prequel in becoming a Halloween-time classic for many families across the country. The acting is excellent and the fan service throughout the film is pleasant yet not over bearing.

I liked this more than I didn't, but it's so uneven. Some things drag, while others land well. There is a lot of stuff tossed out there and there's enough here to be entertained thoroughly. Final Score: 6.5/10

It could’ve been better, but at the same time, it also could’ve been way worse. I’m okay with what we got.

It could of been better

So much nostalgia. I thought O'Hara and Keaton did really well. I did feel their zest or energy behind the characters wane. I know they're older, but just seems like they were playing the part instead of really possessing it as they did the 1st one. I really missed the Maitlands!!!! I don't care if Burton thought it was checking off boxes, I saw someone on reddit make a great note. Since the ghosts can change their appearances anytime (as we see in the 1st one), they could just choose to be older. I hope they put them in the 3rd. It really lacked without them.

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is scary, but also a good movie

Pretty weak sequel. Definitely not as good as the 1st. I swear he made it for pure nostalgic reasons judging from all the nods to the original. The best thing about this one were the effects. When all the influencers get sucked into their own phones was pretty awesome

Future me: "Hey! Did you like the Beetlejuice sequel?" Future friend: "Wait.... they made a sequel???" Yeah, this will be one of the most forgettable sequels to a popular original. Wasn't impressed. I just did not find it as funny as the original. The plot was ok, but parts of it were pretty useless. They tried to create the silliness of the first one, but I just didn't see it, but it did not have the same flare. Definitely wacky, but not in a great way.

This is not worth your time. Loved the first one, hate the second one.
