They shot themselves in the foot with the first. In terms of getting a likable antihero… him being a murderer is one thing but once you add a Turkey baster he was too far gone. I actually liked Dont Breathe 2 but was so weirded out that they did a attempted turnaround on this character. Sorry buddy… I can’t see you as a fatherly dude after the first… you were still fun to watch though LOL.
My theory is that they take an unused (cheap) script, slap a known title on it, change it to fit the known characters and sit back to see the money roll in. At least that's how I feel about some of todays sequels.
Honestly, I think this movie was doomed from the get-go cause it was ridiculous that they were trying to get the audience to root for a perpetrator of SA.
I saw the first one, and what I found disturbing is that I was in fact rooting for the villain! It was a horror movie, and they were thieves who thought they were going to have an easy job robbing the old blind guy. If the movie succeeded with him killing all of them, including the girl, GREAT!
I haven't watched this movie yet but seems like it didn't lived upto the first movie and i kinda expected that but anyways i will watch it when it releases digitally. Again, thanks emma! You are like that friend to me who has really good taste in movies and always gives good recommendations
When I first heard a couple of years ago that they planning to make a sequel, I was mad, I was like: NOOOOO, don't ruin this movie, better do a sequel to Evil Dead with Jane Levi. But after I saw it today I'm actually not mad at it at all. It was very entertaining. And I really liked the twists. They definitely seem unrealistic and have a feel of telenovela shocking reveals but they quite surprised me and I love getting strong emotions from plot twists.
Emma - I appreciate your non-spoiler review! However, I hope you can come back to this film with spoilers because it feels like it needs to be discussed in further detail just HOW FAR off the rails this story goes! I was speechless when the third act arrived because I was just not prepared for how far the writers were willing to go. I was excited to sit through another chapter of the story to see where the writers would take it, but I just wasn’t prepared for what we got! (PS. the gore was an A+ at least, and the film was gorgeously shot)
Soooooo glad we are still on the same page. Exact same reactions here. Lucky me I did see it with a group of friends. Lol 😅👍 And thankfully Candy Man is coming!!!!!! 😁😉
I think I'm going to wait for this to come out on VOD - I really enjoyed the first one but I just don't feel the pull to make the journey to the cinema for round 2, especially when it kind of goes outside the simple effectiveness of the first! Really appreciate your review in helping me make up my mind with this one :) So excited for your Candyman review, it's one of my most anticipated films of the year!
Thanks for the review! I’ve watch 3 other YT reviews and was hoping that your review would be a bit more positive, but that’s ok. I haven’t seen it yet, but I plan on it. Have you watch The Girl Who Got Away yet? I thought I’d give you a movie to talk about on your channel. I thought I was going to be disappointed with it, the way it was going, but the end changed my mind. Love ❤️ your channel!
Hey my friend, been subscribed for a little bit but life causing me to miss some of the videos. I was curious, do you avoid trailers because you don’t want to know anything about movies you’re excited about? If that’s the case I love it because I do the same thing.
I'm using your two reviews of Night House and Don't Breathe 2 to decide which movie to see today. So it will be Night House, which will be my first movie attended in person since the pandemic. I found your channel because of the pandemic btw, so a little silver lining.
Night House is good and very different. It's layered. Don't Breathe 2 is pretty simple with some interesting twists but some gory stuff. Both are good but not quite the same.
Love these come with me’s! This is a better review than I’ve heard actually. All I care about if it’s not amazing, is that it’s fun. So I think you won me over on checking this out when it hits vod! Thanks Emma!
The original "Don't Breathe" is one of my favorite horror movies. The suspense, the tension was amazing. I kinda don't want to see the sequel. For me, the story ended naturally.
I'm with you and think it had potential for so much better. Detroit is definitely a different world though even in a drearier by the day America. There's a lot of ghost town neighborhoods worth googling for a spinal chill. Far fetched for sure but people do easily disappear in Detroit.
I haven't seen either one and I probably won't, not my kind of horror movie. I enjoy your reviews and how you don't spoil things, it's a skill for sure! I have to admit that the end of your videos (the music and visuals) always creep me out in a very good way, I can't even say why specifically. Don't change it!
😂😂 i will totally see this! Sounds like a hoot!.... 😂😂😅 oh god, I hope you're trying to tell us the dude is secretly an alien! Please tell me that's true!
Loved hearing your opinions! I reviewed this on my channel too and I actually quite enjoyed it to be fair, I agree it feels very different from the first one and in terms of the story from the first one they’re very disconnected but if I think of it as a separate movie I actually quite liked it!
I was at that screening! I was working up the courage to say hello after the movie but you bolted out of there, and fair enough because that movie kinda stunk and I would have come off as some creepy awkward dude anyway hahaha. Though you DID leave before the end credit scene but don’t worry you didn’t miss much. *SPOILER WARNING* At the end the dog jogs over to blind man’s body and sniffs it and it zooms in close on his fingers. You think they’ll twitch but they don’t. Still, possible set up for a sequel? Man they really love those dogs. In the Don’t Breathe Universe the hierarchy of horrific crimes, according to the writers, from most to least offensive goes: 1. Killing a dog 2. Organ stealing 3. Kidnapping and rape. It’s just INSANE to me the direction they took with this one! I think Fiona O’Shaughnessy was my favourite part, the only performance that seemed to match the kind of film it was, or was trying to be. Or it could be just that I love her from that ICONIC British series Utopia. But she did manage to get the only intentional laugh in the film.
Also I feel I should clarify, I was NOT a creepy dude in the bushes! I promise LOL. Though I have been pushed into that bush by the entrance once before.
@@spookyastronauts you were sitting the row behind us to the right, I recognised you when you came in during the trailers, which you then immediately left to avoid hahahaha. But the red hair and white jacket is kinda ICONIC!
I enjoyed it, but it certainly wasn't up to the first. I think your take is largely right Emma. Yet I found myself oddly moved at the very end as he was seeking redemption.
Interesting review (I always enjoy your reviews even when I don't agree). That said, I really liked this one a lot, although not quite as much as the original, which I'd give a 9/10 (I'd give this one an 8/10). One of the things I love about going to the cinema is the audience reaction. I saw this in NYC and no one laughed at anything. There were some gasps at the twists and gore, but certainly no laughter. (NB: I'm usually the one to laugh and that didn't happen either.)
I really enjoyed this film. Glad I saw it on the big screen. Wish the actors could win some kind of award for such physically demanding acting. It's exploitation trash but I love that kind of stuff.
Not going to theatres, but still looking forward to it. I kinda hope they didn't 'redeem' The blind man too much. Looked a bit like The Punisher meets Blind Fury. I'd still prefer him as a bad guy meeting bad guys. Will reserve judgement for when I see it though. I generally don't have too much of a problem with sequels putting it's main character in a different situation or genre swapping. Eg - going from horror to action and back like the Alien franchise, or Terminator. Or The difference between the first two Riddick movies. Sometimes it spices things up wonderfully. Other times...it doesn't. Other times you get Kate Beckinsale running around in latex shooting others for 4 movies and that's totally fine too. (although the one with Rhona Mitra was fun too) Just like John Wick. Or Rocky. Also...I don't want a prequel showing The Blind Man in wartime, as a good guy and how he got to be such a badass - going from a good hearted man to a vicious killer and returning disillusioned ending with 'that event' that made him what he is...
Don’t breath is one of my favorite movies!!! Can’t wait to see Dont Breathe 2 !! I remember when I heard the plot to this movie way back when and I couldn’t believe it!! And it didn’t dissapoint!!
I just went to see this one today and albeit I didn't rewatch the first one, I thought the ridiculousness felt similar to the first one, which I really liked. He's kinda a batty, off the rails character that finds himself in a crazy situation in the first one and I feel like in the second one, they apply a similar formula to the plot. And I TOTALLY think there will be a third - like that last scene where the kid introduces herself - she will totally be back as a college student, in a crazy situation where she has to fend off intruders 😂
I thought the first one was fun, although it doesn't hold up that well. It also has a lot of unbelievable scenarios and I think the opening kinda takes the tension out of a section of the movie because you know what will happen. It's odd. I look forward to seeing this one just for dumb fun.
I loved the first one too; I went to the theater to see it & I was the only one in my group who enjoyed it. Can’t wait to see the sequel 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 Love your content so much!!!
Thanks for the review, Emma. I kind of didn't get a good vibe when I saw the trailer and your review seemed to confirm what I suspected. Nevertheless, I may see it one day on home rental.
That is what happens when they do sequels look at what happened with the exorcist the sequel was so terrible that a bunch of fans chased after the film executives of Warner bros studios at a theater 🙃
@@spookyastronauts true, but I guess I meant it in that the blind man was the villian in the first one and now he's more of a ain't hero kind of character.
Even though I agree with your opinion, I think I enjoyed the film more than you did. It kind of felt like they were upping the ante to avoid just remaking the first one and putting a 2 on it. I appreciate what it seemed like they were trying to do but I think it ended up hurting the film. I left the theater having been entertained and I’ll chalk that up as a win.
It's quite obvious that Fede and Rodo were trying to make Norman (The Blind Man) a somewhat sympathetic character, due the overall change in tone from the first movie to this one. While both Stephen Lang and Madelyn Grace are good in their roles, we don't get the character development with the thugs as we did in the first one, so, we don't care about them.
I liked the sequel. It's odd,but the young girl Phoenix is actually the protagonist here. The old man is still who he is and he owns it at the end. It's good,if you liked the first one,I guess. Surprisingly sad at the end. Some good kills.
Do you not find it a bit ridiculous that they tried to make the blind man the 'hero' in a way and also, knowing what he did in the first one, it's a bit hard to watch him be this sort of 'father' to the little girl. It's a bit silly.
@@BenWhigham Sort of. But he had that girl in the first movie impregnated and trapped in the basement. She died and you kind of wonder where did this one come from. He was no hero. He admits to being a monster in the end. He knows he did evil things. Saving the current girl was sort of a redemption arc,but it's all a matter of bad people and worse people. Even the girl wanted to leave from how he was raising her. The Hispanic girl seemed like a decent person,but she wasn't an option at the end. The guy is a shell shocked veteran and far from being a good guy.
I don't know if they could do a 3 rd one but I could see them doing a prequel. SPOILER!!! Favorite gore scene I had many, but the super glue to the mouth 👄 was pretty awesome And then when he caught the guy on fire 🔥 And when he lays down in the water 💧
I was never the biggest fan of the first. I just rewatched it to see if there was something that just didn't click, but aside from the sensory horror there isn't much there for me. I stayed away from the trailers for this sequel and boy am I glad I did because it gives away a lot of the goods. This premise didn't work for me and I found myself disinterested in the characters and the plot developments had me laughing in the theater. I do agree it's at least a fun watch with a crowd.
Well, there's easily room for one more, at least. She takes his place and uses what she's learned and influenced by. If they do a round 3 or more, I think they would be successful.
Yeah I was kinda waiting for vod. The first one was so good and we just rewatched it. But...I knew they wouldn't be able to do the same and the trailer makes it look like an action film and less dread.
I just watched movie for the first time in HBO, maybe she was influenced by moviegoers reactions because I think it was a good horror movie and left me wanting for more
The gore was top tier for me in this film💯💯 absolutely disgusting at some parts, but you just can’t look away😅 My fave gory scene has to be the daughter hacking at her moms arm which is handcuffed to both of them😂 so fun to see
I just rewatched the first one today and I’m still really looking forward to seeing the second one but might just wait to rent it, i love the old bad guy just the way he adjusted to being blind and his form of justice for his daughters death, the story was great in my opinion
I don't think it's that unrealistic, maybe a little less than the 1st but I think it could still happen. I also thought the kills we're awesome. I really enjoyed it.
Oh my god was that a poster for Antlers?!!? SO EXCITED. I'm also excited to see Candyman, I watched the three originals last week on my nightshifts. I'm probably still going to see this but it's disappointing that it's pretty much a whole separate movie that's not really tied to the first. I want to ask you two questions: can you please do a video recommending horror that could happen in real life? Think like The Strangers, Hush. No supernatural elements, but not completely convoluted. And, I'm going to undertake the massive task of watching all the Blumhouse horror movies. Should I do it in order of release, or should I watch the movies in each franchise one after the other and then the single movies? Thanks for reading this essay.
I really want to see this one but I cinema isn't showing it a good time it was on late at night reason I'm exciting a brilliant sequel this will be available soon enough anyway.
I liked the first one a lot but didn’t like the twist, I honestly thought it was stupid, sorry. I thought Stephen Lang was brilliant in the roll as the blind man. I had more expectations for this sequel, shame really because this could have had a few sequels if they kept the film and scenes right with tension.
You had the strangest take on this movie I’ve seen so far. Not trying to knock your opinion though. I think you going in without seeing the trailer is a lot of why though. The rest of us knew a lot more going in so I think we were more able to accept it. I don’t know but great job like always
I can only do that with universal picture movies because I’m white listed. Otherwise my videos always get striked for copyright. That’s why i can’t always do it. I wish I could
My Score: Personal: 2/10 - Movie was trash - I was bored half way, the plot was so far fetched. Some stuff did not make any sense, it was hard to buy into the action and the reasons for what was happening when I was just thinking "this makes no sense". Originality: 2/10 - There are far more original takes on 'home invasion" - I appreciated a little that there was a twist at all (who the girl really is) but the movie was already too far gone even when that was revealed. And what they did AFTER that was ever dumber. Scare: 1/10 - I did not jump once, I was not ever really scared for the characters and because you were not 'rooting' for the invaders at all when they started to be killed I was like 'who cares!' I did appreciate how they kept that second dog alive, even to the end, that was the best part of the movie! :)
There's a problem when the characters are not redeeming. You have no one to root for and hope everyone kicks it! SPOILER: Hated It! ~~Aliens are indeed real! Where do people think we got are technology? After the Roswell crash they reversed engineered the technology! 🛸
I liked the movie fine, but yeah... They shouldn't have pushed so hard to make him an antihero. If they would have left the whole organ transfer thing out and just showed them to be marginally worse than him as far as homes go for a child, I would have bought him being a better choice for the girl... Despite what a monster he is. Then he would have still been seen as evil, but just a lesser evil. Instead they made her other choice so outlandish and wacky in attempt to make him the good guy.
To be honest I wasn’t sympathetic to him at all 😂. I see a lot of people are saying that. I felt for the poor girl everyone she ever knew was fucked up!
I liked it almost as much as the first, I thought the story they went with was unique I do feel like they shot themselves in the foot with the whole evil vs evil aspect of it, I think if they stuck with the first half and made it good vs the blind man then it would've been awesome. I do disagree with everyone saying how dare they make us "root for the rapist", It never felt like that was the case.
Really? I haven’t watched the film, but from what I seen online he was like a martyr in the end for the child. He was the lesser of two evils presented. You don’t make things like that tug on heartstrings without some kind of character “redemption” in mind. She decided to keep her name he gave her, choosing to accept his “paternal” role. I refuse to watch it because of this and I still think I’ll listen to those who advised against it, as your opinion seems more contrarian. You cannot make a character like him morally grey and I hate that they even tried to.
@@holliegriffin5361 I think he was morally wrong,but it wasn't so black and white. An evil person is capable of good things just as a good person can be fallible. The kid was the center of the film. She had 2 sides here. Neither one being ideal.
I just watched the movie. Now I have the Alvarez meter 1)Don’t breathe great gimmick solid filming. 2) Evil Dead dark but the characters run stale . 3) don’t breathe 2 a blown out version of don’t breathe where the movie spends more time reasoning to you why the first installments ending was passable and less time delving into the story. Additionally, if you have watched the Evil Dead remake ending its like Alvarez used that ending and reworked it here. Someone female loses something in order to make a change. Sunrises. Reds
You leave the room when they're playing trailers? Over here you're most likely already seated when the movie trailers start playing. They play after generic commercials (Coca Cola, Magnum, some beer brand...) and before the actual movie starts. Meanwhile the cinemas already darken the room, so it's a pain to find your seat otherwise.
I didn’t like the second one, it should have picked up where the first one left off. What happened to the girl in the first movie, and the possibility of her baby? It’s not part 2 it’s a different movie, I liked the first one, he was creepy and this one tried to make him a hero….NO !
Why do horror reviewers like you think Don’t Breathe 1&2 are horror movies?! They aren’t! More like a drama thriller type with bloody/brutal violence. Non horror movies can have gore, doesn’t make it one.

Don't be that dude.
They shot themselves in the foot with the first. In terms of getting a likable antihero… him being a murderer is one thing but once you add a Turkey baster he was too far gone. I actually liked Dont Breathe 2 but was so weirded out that they did a attempted turnaround on this character. Sorry buddy… I can’t see you as a fatherly dude after the first… you were still fun to watch though LOL.
I was just gonna write this. The guy turned out to be the lowest of the low with that Turkey baster, can’t see me ever rooting for a guy like that.
TOTALLY. my boyfriend hasn’t seen the first movie, he just saw the second so he was down for it but when he sees the first he’ll be surprised haha
That scene turned him from a menace into a moustache-twirling cartoon villain
I wish so badly they made a prequel instead. Would have been so interesting!
My theory is that they take an unused (cheap) script, slap a known title on it, change it to fit the known characters and sit back to see the money roll in. At least that's how I feel about some of todays sequels.
Yeah that would make sense!
Absolut!
Honestly, I think this movie was doomed from the get-go cause it was ridiculous that they were trying to get the audience to root for a perpetrator of SA.
Yeah I wasn’t falling for that. He’s a creep!
I saw the first one, and what I found disturbing is that I was in fact rooting for the villain! It was a horror movie, and they were thieves who thought they were going to have an easy job robbing the old blind guy. If the movie succeeded with him killing all of them, including the girl, GREAT!

@@spookyastronauts true, but I guess I meant it in that the blind man was the villian in the first one and now he's more of a ain't hero kind of character.
Even though I agree with your opinion, I think I enjoyed the film more than you did. It kind of felt like they were upping the ante to avoid just remaking the first one and putting a 2 on it. I appreciate what it seemed like they were trying to do but I think it ended up hurting the film. I left the theater having been entertained and I’ll chalk that up as a win.
Love ❤️ your come with me vlogs
Sounds to me like it’s garbage nonsense but I will definitely be watching it regardless. Thank you for the spoiler-free review Emma!
Thanks for the video , enjoyed the first one ( don’t like the spoiler ) , might watch it on vod , not excited by sequels apart from Candyman .
And also the Blind Man was still a bad ass and I liked the little girl. Still my favorite line, " He's gonna kill you all."
It's quite obvious that Fede and Rodo were trying to make Norman (The Blind Man) a somewhat sympathetic character, due the overall change in tone from the first movie to this one. While both Stephen Lang and Madelyn Grace are good in their roles, we don't get the character development with the thugs as we did in the first one, so, we don't care about them.
Spoiler:
They killed that Latina girl from the get go. They were not going to be good guys or even doing the break in for any remotely good reason.
Yeah I felt most people were unlikeable the whole film. Only cared about the dogs and the girl
Can you review the howling 4 please please
yeah I think I will give this one a miss. Loved the first one
Hey, Lady... move your feet (4:47)! ☺
I liked the movie a lot and there was actually a little post credit scene at the very very end of the credits.
I liked the sequel. It's odd,but the young girl Phoenix is actually the protagonist here. The old man is still who he is and he owns it at the end. It's good,if you liked the first one,I guess. Surprisingly sad at the end. Some good kills.
Do you not find it a bit ridiculous that they tried to make the blind man the 'hero' in a way and also, knowing what he did in the first one, it's a bit hard to watch him be this sort of 'father' to the little girl. It's a bit silly.
@@BenWhigham Sort of. But he had that girl in the first movie impregnated and trapped in the basement. She died and you kind of wonder where did this one come from. He was no hero. He admits to being a monster in the end. He knows he did evil things. Saving the current girl was sort of a redemption arc,but it's all a matter of bad people and worse people. Even the girl wanted to leave from how he was raising her. The Hispanic girl seemed like a decent person,but she wasn't an option at the end. The guy is a shell shocked veteran and far from being a good guy.
I don't know if they could do a 3 rd one but I could see them doing a prequel.
SPOILER!!!
Favorite gore scene
I had many, but the super glue to the mouth 👄 was pretty awesome
And then when he caught the guy on fire 🔥
And when he lays down in the water 💧
I was never the biggest fan of the first. I just rewatched it to see if there was something that just didn't click, but aside from the sensory horror there isn't much there for me.
I stayed away from the trailers for this sequel and boy am I glad I did because it gives away a lot of the goods. This premise didn't work for me and I found myself disinterested in the characters and the plot developments had me laughing in the theater. I do agree it's at least a fun watch with a crowd.
That’s the cinema I go to! :)
Well, there's easily room for one more, at least. She takes his place and uses what she's learned and influenced by. If they do a round 3 or more, I think they would be successful.
But the series's whole shtick is that he's blind. Which would be lost at that point.
@@tevenpowell8023 Nice point. Guess they'd have to do a spinoff, like The Conjuring family of movies did.
Very good i enjoyed it tbh
❤️
We call it candy floss in England
I enjoy the first one don't breathe movie but don't breathe 2 movie it did not left up to high expectation and I give it 5/10
i loved it ... its a different film and it did shock me
Yeah I was kinda waiting for vod. The first one was so good and we just rewatched it. But...I knew they wouldn't be able to do the same and the trailer makes it look like an action film and less dread.
Loved the first. Girl that's way too big of drink. Nothing worse then having to get up too pee at the cinema.
Didn’t have to go..
I just watched movie for the first time in HBO, maybe she was influenced by moviegoers reactions because I think it was a good horror movie and left me wanting for more
I don’t look at others reactions before filming these, I don’t even look at the trailer.
The gore was top tier for me in this film💯💯 absolutely disgusting at some parts, but you just can’t look away😅
My fave gory scene has to be the daughter hacking at her moms arm which is handcuffed to both of them😂 so fun to see
I just rewatched the first one today and I’m still really looking forward to seeing the second one but might just wait to rent it, i love the old bad guy just the way he adjusted to being blind and his form of justice for his daughters death, the story was great in my opinion
Sooooo did anyone see the post credit scene? I think they are setting it up for a sequel to Don't Breathe 2.
I think they wanted you to support him the way you support Michael or Freddy. Wasn't happening.
Looks cool, I'll watch once it's available at home, physical release etc
🖤
I don't think it's that unrealistic, maybe a little less than the 1st but I think it could still happen. I also thought the kills we're awesome. I really enjoyed it.
Oh my god was that a poster for Antlers?!!? SO EXCITED. I'm also excited to see Candyman, I watched the three originals last week on my nightshifts.
I'm probably still going to see this but it's disappointing that it's pretty much a whole separate movie that's not really tied to the first.
I want to ask you two questions: can you please do a video recommending horror that could happen in real life? Think like The Strangers, Hush. No supernatural elements, but not completely convoluted. And, I'm going to undertake the massive task of watching all the Blumhouse horror movies. Should I do it in order of release, or should I watch the movies in each franchise one after the other and then the single movies? Thanks for reading this essay.
Going to candyman on Thursday
I really enjoyed the 2nd one but thought the 1st one was better.
🤗great review
I really want to see this one but I cinema isn't showing it a good time it was on late at night reason I'm exciting a brilliant sequel this will be available soon enough anyway.
Lol it's ridiculous how unsatisfied and miserable some audiences will always be no matter how good the movie is.
I liked it.
I liked the first one a lot but didn’t like the twist, I honestly thought it was stupid, sorry.
I thought Stephen Lang was brilliant in the roll as the blind man.
I had more expectations for this sequel, shame really because this could have had a few sequels if they kept the film and scenes right with tension.
You had the strangest take on this movie I’ve seen so far. Not trying to knock your opinion though. I think you going in without seeing the trailer is a lot of why though. The rest of us knew a lot more going in so I think we were more able to accept it. I don’t know but great job like always
Yeah that’s why it’s good to go in blind. Not sure what’s strange though?
@@spookyastronauts I just meant different, not really strange. My bad
you should continue where u react to the trailer after ur review like in OLD review
Agreed, I liked watching her reaction to the trailers after to see what she says after watching the movie
I can only do that with universal picture movies because I’m white listed. Otherwise my videos always get striked for copyright. That’s why i can’t always do it. I wish I could
Right on. Based on the character from the first one, I have no interest in following one minute about this guy. Thanks for the ride along though!
My Score:
Personal: 2/10 - Movie was trash - I was bored half way, the plot was so far fetched. Some stuff did not make any sense, it was hard to buy into the action and the reasons for what was happening when I was just thinking "this makes no sense".
Originality: 2/10 - There are far more original takes on 'home invasion" - I appreciated a little that there was a twist at all (who the girl really is) but the movie was already too far gone even when that was revealed. And what they did AFTER that was ever dumber.
Scare: 1/10 - I did not jump once, I was not ever really scared for the characters and because you were not 'rooting' for the invaders at all when they started to be killed I was like 'who cares!'
I did appreciate how they kept that second dog alive, even to the end, that was the best part of the movie! :)
To make a long story short.... IT PALES IN COMPARISON WITH THE FIRST...
I really liked the sequel, but it doesn’t compare to the first obviously 😂
I disagree I really liked it, as it was so different. and the Blind man was awesome.
I’m so jealous cause theater and cinemas are still closed here from where I’m from :(
I’m sorry! :(
There's a problem when the characters are not redeeming. You have no one to root for and hope everyone kicks it! SPOILER: Hated It! ~~Aliens are indeed real! Where do people think we got are technology? After the Roswell crash they reversed engineered the technology! 🛸
I liked the movie fine, but yeah... They shouldn't have pushed so hard to make him an antihero.
If they would have left the whole organ transfer thing out and just showed them to be marginally worse than him as far as homes go for a child, I would have bought him being a better choice for the girl... Despite what a monster he is. Then he would have still been seen as evil, but just a lesser evil.
Instead they made her other choice so outlandish and wacky in attempt to make him the good guy.
Hey!!!
Did you get any cringe feelings from the intended vibe that Norman as a sympathetic character? Considering his awful deeds in the first one.
To be honest I wasn’t sympathetic to him at all 😂. I see a lot of people are saying that. I felt for the poor girl everyone she ever knew was fucked up!
I need your take on Demonic...
I’ll talk about it in my monthly wrap up
I liked it almost as much as the first, I thought the story they went with was unique I do feel like they shot themselves in the foot with the whole evil vs evil aspect of it, I think if they stuck with the first half and made it good vs the blind man then it would've been awesome. I do disagree with everyone saying how dare they make us "root for the rapist", It never felt like that was the case.
Really? I haven’t watched the film, but from what I seen online he was like a martyr in the end for the child. He was the lesser of two evils presented. You don’t make things like that tug on heartstrings without some kind of character “redemption” in mind. She decided to keep her name he gave her, choosing to accept his “paternal” role. I refuse to watch it because of this and I still think I’ll listen to those who advised against it, as your opinion seems more contrarian. You cannot make a character like him morally grey and I hate that they even tried to.
@@holliegriffin5361 I think he was morally wrong,but it wasn't so black and white. An evil person is capable of good things just as a good person can be fallible. The kid was the center of the film. She had 2 sides here. Neither one being ideal.
I just watched the movie. Now I have the Alvarez meter
1)Don’t breathe great gimmick solid filming.
2) Evil Dead dark but the characters run stale .
3) don’t breathe 2 a blown out version of don’t breathe where the movie spends more time reasoning to you why the first installments ending was passable and less time delving into the story. Additionally, if you have watched the Evil Dead remake ending its like Alvarez used that ending and reworked it here.
Someone female loses something in order to make a change.
Sunrises.
Reds
It’s like 2 stars. I taught me what not to do with a series as a whole a couple of good scenes
But, that’s that, queen 👑
Let's be honest. Dont breathe premise is utterly stupid but it is also fun.
You leave the room when they're playing trailers? Over here you're most likely already seated when the movie trailers start playing. They play after generic commercials (Coca Cola, Magnum, some beer brand...) and before the actual movie starts. Meanwhile the cinemas already darken the room, so it's a pain to find your seat otherwise.
Yeah they play the same way everywhere, I walked in a little late and they were already playing so I went outside. I don’t do it every time.
I didn’t like the second one, it should have picked up where the first one left off. What happened to the girl in the first movie, and the possibility of her baby? It’s not part 2 it’s a different movie, I liked the first one, he was creepy and this one tried to make him a hero….NO !
Why do horror reviewers like you think Don’t Breathe 1&2 are horror movies?! They aren’t! More like a drama thriller type with bloody/brutal violence. Non horror movies can have gore, doesn’t make it one.
I guess because the director (Fede) and production company calls it a horror film?
I’m sad don’t breath 1 was good 2 wasn’t and a quiet place 1 was good but 2 wasn’t
