yes its a bad movie but not As Bad as the critics make it seem... its just uninventive and dull. but i didnt walk out and was fairly entertained for most of it. I enjoyed seeing Kaitie Holmes. And the ending is just hilariously bad. 4/10 still better than Cats  |

Huh, another one of those horror movies I didn’t even know was a thing. Sounds like I’m not missing anything.

4/5 seems pretty high for an uninventive and dull film with a hilariously bad ending.

I never even saw the first. Was it deserving of a sequel?

I thought the first one had potential. I liked the design of the house and Brahms was an interesting creation. It lacked real scares though and that ending was just terrible. But apparently it was profitable enough to warrant a sequel.

4/5 seems pretty high for an uninventive and dull film with a hilariously bad ending. I agree but it looked good visually, the acting was good, I liked seeing Katie Holmes a lot, and I didnt find it so bad I would want to walk out. Its ok to sit through and has a HILARIOUS ending. Its almost worth seeing Just for the ending. |

BRAHMS: THE BOY PART II (why would you use the RAMBO franchise as a precedent on how to name your sequels?!) is mostly boring, although the pacing a little better compared to THE BOY PART I thanks to the shorter running time. Katie Holmes, Christopher Convery and Ralph Ineson's performances are decent. The long takes don't really add anything to their respective scenes (some of them are even sloppy), but I still appreciate how director William Brent Bell tried to inject life into this product. Ironically, he ruins that by constantly resorting to predictable jump scares. Its predecessor was yet another "evil plaything" entry that tried to re-invent the sub-genre by revealing at the end that there was nothing supernatural going on. Why would you make a follow-up and try to pretend like the doll is possessed when the audience already knows the truth? The title character is found by a boy whose name is... Hmmm... I think Jude. I'm not sure, because his parents only say his name 10,000 times. Around the 30-minute mark, we get direct confirmation that Brahms is sentient. It's not the first time that a sequel has retconned the original, but this is such an unusual case, because both installments were written and directed by the same people. There's a scene where a boy named Will starts messing with Jude and a girl named Sophie. My initial reaction was "What a little shit-head!", but Will calls them boyfriend and girlfriend whenever they defend each other. My reaction to that was "Dude, that's your sister and your cousin! I know bullies gotta bully, but what the fuck?!" 3/10 ------------------------------------- You can read comments of other movies in my blog. |
