Misterio a la vista

An attempt to recreate the charm of the first, but doesn't quite get there.

Murder Mystery 2 brings back the charm of Adam Sandler and Jennifer Anniston. Their chemistry is good.

However, the faster action pacing actually works against the comedy. It feels like a chronology of action sequences done purposefully ridiculously. So it seems like a lot of fun to shoot the movie for the cast... but it's a little messy and unfocused for the viewer.

There is even a little lack of creativity in the sequel... many elements from the first movie was recycled: stabbed victim, stealing a lambo, French lieutenant... I'm not even sure why some of the original cast needed to be in the sequel.

It was a quick fun, albeit forgettable movie. Perhaps if the plot and dialogue were a tad bit smarter, definitely the Sandler-Anniston pair can sell it!

The time I write this review the movie has a rating of 5.8 Stars and I don't understand why.

The movie is pretty damn funny. I think there wasn't a joke I don't laughed about and the reason for that are probably the actors. Adam Sandler and Jennifer Anniston just work so good together as well as their characters.

The action isn't as good as in John Wick 4 of course but for such a movie it's very good. I wasn't expecting that.

However the movie is a little short leading to a story that isn't as good as in Knives Out, but I mean you don't watch this movie to get a super intelligent 'murder mystery' story, which is kind of ironic.

In conclusion I would say this movie is definitely watchable so don't be afraid if you find the rating of the movie bad.

Like its predecessor, Murder Mystery 2 sets out to provide a breezy diversion and it largely succeeds. It isn't trying to be deep, or meaningful, or even riotously funny. But there's a good-natured charm to the proceedings thanks to the chemistry of the two leads, who manage to remain affable while quipping their way through the predictable plot. The supporting cast are one-note stereotypes (the vapid billionaire, the aggressive playboy, the coldly judgemental aristocrat, etc.) but they're utilized sparingly enough not to wear out their respective welcomes. It's an enjoyable way to turn your brain off for 90 minutes or so.

We really enjoyed this comedy. It was wonderfully wacky & absurd. We laughed hysterically at some points, usually for off-hand quips from the two protagonists. If you've enjoyed past Sandler and Aniston films, you'll like this one, too. It's a lot of fun, if you're in the mood for laughter.

It's a refreshing change of pace after watching too many thriller & action films. This film is knee-slapping funny. Who cares if both the characters and the plot are verging on the absurd & surreal? That's just part of the film's charm.

I was looking forward to this movie coming out, and I wasn't disappointed. Please keep us laughing, Adam!

Movie was a solid fun watch, but for me there was just some things I did not like. To start the movie is very similar to the first one, doesnt feel like they tried to change anything except locations. The pacing of the movie was also very fast, everything just happened so fast it feels like you hardly get anytime to process what just happened. My last complaint is that there is plot points that just did not need to be added at all, like the story would have been fine to not add them, I am not gonna spoil anything but you will probably notice. Some positives about the movie was that it was funny, had decent acting, and was a fun watch. Overall I would Recommend.
