2024 horror sequel movies smile 2 From a smile to a scream. It collects steam in the first reel and continues to increase the volume of the entire reel. It’s impressive and terrifying, but it can never top the sister scene from the first Smile movie:
This was the only scene that made me jump out of my seat. If I were in a movie theater, the popcorn would fly into the air along with its container. No other scene in the first movie grabbed me as much as this one.
Sadly, smile 2 There was no real matching moment. There are moments that will shock and scare you, and will definitely make you look back, but not jump. At least not for me.
story
We are still in the “Smile Verses”. The film opens with a young man trying to pass on his smile to a “worthy” candidate. This doesn’t go according to plan. After the catastrophic climax, smile 2 Continue to Isle of Skye.
Skye Riley is a singer who has been through her own hell. She made a comeback with the help of her domineering mother. Back pain makes it difficult for her to perform daily activities. Because of her medication issues, she couldn’t get painkillers stronger than “Extra Strength Tylenol.”
Skye stepped out of the medical world and into a weird world of different kinds of pain. A friendly smile.
We already know this won’t end well.

behind the camera
Parker Finn (director of the first film, Smile.) wrote and directed this one again. smile 2 The smell of blood is suitably enhanced, and the burgundy (blood) color is impressively increased as well.
Charlie Sarov (the cinematographer on “Smile 1”) returns and makes every frame mesmerizing. Although there is no “sister” moment smile 2there are moments that will stick with you long after the final volume ends.

everything is fine
smile 2 Most likely a repeat of the first movie but on steroids, but it looks fantastic. It’s upscale. First, it has a bigger budget. *28 million vs 17 million when smiling.
It shows.
Every scene in the film shows that a lot of money was spent here. But as far as “blockbusters” go, it’s not a huge budget. But the film benefits from its upgrades.
It’s scary in all the right places, and the scene with Lewis’ weight is disturbing to the extreme.
judgment
smile 2 Despite not having a “sister in front of the car window,” it still received a solid 5 stars. The hallway scene is close, but there are no cigars, guys and dolls. Still, this is a horror movie with a capital-level, and a lot of fun. The movie is streaming on MGM plus and Paramount plus.
