Smile 2

It was ok. I called the ending after about 20 minutes in, that's never a good sign.

it was decent, but i wouldn’t watch again

I hate long takes and novelty shots. This film has plenty of both like the opening scene and the elevator opening onto a birds eye view and the dizzy camera in the car. Like the first film I still hate the upside down shots. Other than those annoyances this is very well made. It feels different to the first, more original but also it’s basically exactly the same story as the first but with a different lead character. No-one does the smile as well as the first girl in the first film. There is some great gore and one excellent jump scare. Much as the character and story is interesting it feels like there are more dead spots with less horror than the first film. It’s too long, by the hour marker I was hoping for story progression. It’s more of the same but with different characters and more polished and bigger. There is much less focus on the story and more on the character. It is so well acted and cast but sometimes a little pretentious and annoying. The choreographed dancers’ smile scene killed the mood a bit, it came across as laughable rather than scary. The stupid voice is back. Overall it was very enjoyable but not different from the first film. It feels very much like, if they make a Smile 3, that they need to do something very different. They can’t keep making the same film but with different characters.

The acting was brilliant for a horror, the main girl was incredible! it was genuinely scary and disturbing at times.. very well done! Loved it! Xx

Takes a quick departure from the first but a good addition and follow on in some of the best, most gruesome jump scare additions to the genre of late.

Funny but absolutely not scary

There was absolutely no character development. The writing created zero empathy or interest in the protagonist. It was not the worst film I have ever seen but was not worth watching.

I guess i liked it, kinda made no sense at some parts but i thought it was good in production

Smile 2 was just as bad as Smile if you have time to waste go ahead there are no jumping , gasps nor hiding behind a pillow . This is no reference to the actors sadly they had to reenact this dire storyline.

The basic outline of the story is good, but it’s way too long, has very few effective scares, and I found myself hoping it would end about 45 minutes in.
