idk just wasnt that great
J’avais ÉNORMÉMENT d’attentes Je suis déçu mais j’ai quand même passé un bon moment. L’ambiance est toujours très angoissante et on déteste quand la protagoniste s’endort. Cependant, trop de gore, trop de paranormal et j’ai trouvé ça moins bien dosé que dans le 1. De plus, les répliques de Gwen sont vraiment ridicules et les références au catholicisme était à mon sens trop abusives.
It was just ok. It had some slightly memorable highs but plenty of lows. First off, this wasn’t a bad sequel. I liked the original better, but I like how the sister was the main focus and it delved more into dream stuff. In terms of like dreams and intense sequences, I really enjoyed it. That final scene, even though it felt kinda all over the place, I still enjoyed it. Visually this movie is beautiful. My favorite aspect of this movie is how they differentiate dreams in real life. Dreams were shot on film, while real life was shot digitally, which I really liked. However, every new character, aside from Finn, the sister, and the dad, I genuinely did not care about. Ernesto was boring, the Hispanic camp counselor had his moments but still not that memorable, and I don’t think Mustang did anything in this film. The dialogue was also super corny at times and lots of weird conversations that feel disjointed and off. Also, at the beginning of the movie, Finn didn’t believe his sister’s dreams??? Didn’t she save you using her dreams in the first movie???? I don’t know, lots of weird character flaws and dialogue issues. Overall, it was fine. I enjoyed the cool Dream film sequences and the Dream sequence at the end was fun to watch and root for Finn and his sister, but I am not watching this again. 6/10
This sequel was equally good if not better than the first movie which is easily a supernatural horror favorite of mine. This time much of the action takes place in the spirit realm with real impact in the physical realm. Loved it really.
good and creepy but i liked the first better
