Takes too long to get going, and the action itself is fairly lackluster. It was decent at times, but the camerawork and editing-to-conceal-the-violence made it disorienting to watch.
Whilst they didn't go into the original concept as much (which I thoroughly enjoyed in the first movie) I think I enjoyed chapter 2 even more. Some cheap, fun scares and a lot of fun. Worth a watch.
One of those movies that upon watching I immediately felt the need to watch again. I'll admit that I didn't fully "get it", partly due to the time of night at which I watched it, unfortunately!
It felt vaguely like horror throughout, but mostly made me feel uncomfortable in a different way. Still, it was effective for what it was. A once in a lifetime watch for me, however.
I loved it. I've been hooked to the concept of lucid dreaming for a good while now, and I liked the philosophical questions that came up. Admittedly, I'm... kind of new to that way of thinking, or I mean that I haven't really thought about these kind of things seriously.
Only a couple of "discussions" didn't seem to fit, but apart from that it was fantastic. The visual style worked with the dream atmosphere, and the music was great too. Definitely see myself watching this many times over.
Funny at times if you can switch your brain off, but I think they could have done better with getting rid of some of the sex jokes. Too much of that and it wasn't any good (like the swingers stuff).
Note - you need to watch this with friends, or you probably won't laugh.
Adding a bit of positivity in here, I thought it was really fun. Great to see Jim back to his goofiness. All round good cast, bunch of laughs. Worth a watch.

Nice visuals, but it felt a bit shallow.Movie comment on Curse of Chucky

I thought it was great. Some scenes were shot really well and Chucky was in good form. Some nice nods to previous installments as well.Movie comment on Gothika

Good '80s horror. Slow build but horror fans should enjoy.Movie comment on Take Shelter

Different from what I was expecting, but a very good movie. Michael Shannon was excellent, and the supporting cast did a fine job as well.Movie comment on May

Better than the first. There are a couple of subpar segments, but no absolute duds like "Tuesday the 17th" from the first movie.Overall, entertaining.
