Nowhere near the accidental magic of the original, but the chaos and Wiseau weirdness make it a worthy, if baffling, follow-up.

Tries hard to be wild and witty but lands with a thud—loud, chaotic, and rarely as smart as it thinks it is.

Stretched thin and far too drawn out, it loses momentum early and never quite finds the road back.

Bold premise aside, it struggles to find the right tone and never quite lands.

Surreal to a fault, it buries any real impact beneath layers of forced quirk. Feels more like a sketch reel than a cohesive film.

Nostalgic chaos with heart and humor—captures the Y2K vibe with style, even if it doesn’t always stick the landing.

Amy Adams gives it her all, but the thin story leaves her howling into the void. Striking ideas, just not enough substance.

Impressively gnarly effects and thrilling set pieces make this a beast worth hunting down. Old-school monster mayhem done right.

Just not my thing. Despite its strengths, the fantasy elements kept me at arm’s length.

Absurd but entertaining, it rides its ridiculous premise with confidence and delivers some solid thrills along the way.

Delivers exactly what you’d expect—bloody bites, bad decisions, and guilty-pleasure fun from start to finish.

A warm, respectful look at a legend. It may not break new ground, but for fans, it hits all the right notes.

This sequel manages to deliver a serviceable follow-up to a classic, even though it can’t fully escape the original’s shadow. Unfortunately, Mescal’s lack of onscreen charisma makes it hard to believe he could rally anyone to his cause.

The story does a great job of drawing you in, holding your attention through most of the runtime. However, it abruptly ends just as things get truly fascinating, leaving me wanting more.
