Child's Play 2 Review

Chilld's Play 2 picks up right where the first one left off. Chucky is back, and he still needs to get his soul inside of Andy (the main kid from the first one). So is this as good as the first one? Not at all. My main problem is that this movie is basically the same as the last one, as it follows the same plot lines. For example: When Chucky starts tormenting Andy no one believes him, and everything that happens is blamed on him. This is just one example of the many things this movie copies off from the first one.

Another problem is that the kills aren´t reall that cool (with the exception of one), and thhere aren't many either. The film also has a serious tone to it, but there are a lot of moments that were completely ridiculous and actually made me laugh when I wasn´t supposed to. The film is kind of entertaining, but you have seen all of the events that happen here before and it is very predictable from start to finish. Chucky is still a cool character though, and he is the best part of the movie for sure, it would have been better if he killed people in more creative ways.

Child's Play 2 tries to replicate the first one but fails at doing so. There is some fun to be had, but it really isn't as cool as the first one. The energy from the first one isn't here, and the whole film feels forced. Even the way that Chucky comes back is weird and really never exlplained properly. I'm giving Child's Play 2 a 2.5/5
