Smile 2 – Siehst du es auch?

...horribly entertaining fright sequel.

...the movie works as a nasty portrait of the downside of music-biz fame, and it builds to an ending deserving of every crooked smile it earns.

Astoundingly, Smileseries creator Parker Finn takes the intriguing but somewhat prosaically expressed conceit of his 2022 surprise smash and makes Smile 2 bigger and scarier in all the right ways.

Parker Finn’s bigger, messier and superior sequel is a nlueprint for a very elastic horror franchise.

The pop world is the perfect setting for Smile 2, Parker Finn’s follow-up to his unexpected Ring-ish horror smash from 2022.

Naomi Scott demonstrates her talents with a raw, no-holds-barred performance in this largely successful horror sequel.
