V/H/S/2 Movie Review: | |
Found footage is all well and good, but if it's unwatchable, it might as well have stayed lost. Sara Stewart-New York Post Erratic perspectives and high-strung camera movements predominate, ricocheting from one gory tableau to another. Andy Webster-New York Times "V/H/S/2" may be hit-and-miss, but it's what midnight movies were made for. Joe Neumaier-New York Daily News None of the chapters use the unifying formal conceit to any real advantage; only one, directed by Timo Tjahjanto and The Raid: Redemption's Gareth Huw Evans, is worth a rental. Sam Adams-Time Out New York A diabolically psychotic, sub-mental and completely unwatchable disaster ... Rex Reed-New York Observer There isn't a scare to be found ... Nick Schager-Village Voice VHS 2 is an improvement on its predecessor in just about every way possible - though, it still suffers as an uneven mix of parts (with varying quality). Kofi Outlaw-ScreenRant Future entries would do well to follow the example set by this one. Rob Vaux-Mania.com The horror movie equivalent of a wimp who relies on steroids to lend him a fearsome appearance while his eyes still tell the truth. Steven Boone-RogerEbert.com V/H/S/2 is about as dull as watching someone else play a first-person shooter video game, only more gross. Jamie S. Rich-Oregonian Where V/H/S feels deliberately homemade, V/H/S/2 boasts a slickness that's distracting and counterproductive. Nathan Rabin-The Dissolve For 30 screaming-mad minutes, V/H/S/2 achieves a kind of fever pitch of nightmare hysteria. A.A. Dowd-AV Club Hardcore horror junkies will get their fix; non-addicts will enjoy a hit or two but lament not getting a sustained high. Steve Biodrowski-Cinefantastique Its work to course-correct the franchise rewards with a tighter, more adventuresome sequel, smartly using hindsight to build a consistent odyssey of voyeuristic brutality. Brian Orndorf-Blu-ray.com Its seven directors surpass the imagination and intensity of those in the original V/H/S, reiterating the format's importance as both a showcase for interstitial creativity between feature-length projects and a testing ground for future ones. Todd Gilchrist-ToddGilchrist.com Consistently surprising with stylistic ingenuity and storytelling elegance. Never afraid to journey into the blackest of hearts, the filmmakers involved in "V/H/S/2" have given the project their best shot, and it shows. Dustin Putman-DustinPutman.com If three of the stories had been decent, I probably could have let it slide, and indeed about halfway through the film, I was surprised to find myself enjoying it. Then the second half hits and the film slides into mediocrity. Jeff Beck-Examiner.com It's a 50/50 split as two of the shorts are great and two... well, not so much. Ethan Alter-Television Without Pity A fantastic sequel that will satisfy the appetites of horror fans who enjoyed the first outing. Felix Vasquez Jr.-Cinema Crazed Last year's anthology horror production "V/H/S" was a revelation mainly because it took the overly familiar found-footage genre and exploited it to the fullest extent. The sequel, "V/H/S 2," achieves a similar goal with more frightening extremes Eric Kohn-indieWIRE | |
