Escape Room 2: Reto Mortal

If you loved the first one you should watch this, but don't let yourself be disappointed, it is not as good as the first. The writing/story is way more far fetched and unbelievable, the writers seem to be going off the deep end. The acting isn't as good and feels more forced and also cliche, but this again would be also due to poor writing. But also the movie doesn't look as good as the first one because they are using bad CGI that is low def. So I just wanted to let you know what kinds of things might be a let down for you if you really loved the first one like I did. But I still think its worth a watch and not a bad film.

This film is still intense, but has less rooms than the first film. It's adequately thrilling.

I highly recommend watching the extended cut as it is so much better than the theatrical version. A better twist and better plot story.

I enjoyed the first film, was fresh. They didn't really offer anything new here, definitely more budget but that's about all. The first "room" dragged on and overall the rooms were not as inventive as the first film. When the solving of the puzzles involves nonstop changes in direction it loses any interest as it's just from one thing to another. More of a rental than at the movies.

I have to admit, I enjoyed the first one more than perhaps I should have, maybe not the most original film, but well acted, well made, and not without thrills and spills, I can understand, commercially, why this second film was made.

It was good to see one or two of the cast from the first film assembled here, the trouble is, that the new characters are wafer thin, we know nothing about them, we learn next to nothing of them, and ultimately it's hard to care about the fate of any of them.

I thought the acting was decent, and the special effects were rather good, I liked how crazy some of the situations were, they tried hard to make the challenges bigger and bolder than in the first, personally, I preferred those fron the original.

I hope they don't make a third, this second wasn't needed. Don't get me wrong, it's not actually a bad film, but there's nothing memorable, there's just something a little cynical about the need to have got this one made, 5/10.
