Los tipos malos 2

"The Bad Guys 2" continues the unique visual style of its predecessor, but this time the visuals and color palette are even bolder. In some scenes, the film even incorporates 2D hand-drawn animation to add expressive flair and emotional tension, making the viewing experience feel like reading a moving picture book. On top of that, the action sequences are smooth and dynamic, keeping the audience fully engaged.

But, what really surprised me is that, despite being a family movie, the storyline is far from simple. Compared to the first movie, the heist elements in the sequel are more intricate, full of twists, turns, and hidden schemes. The writers, in the movie, constantly put the Bad Guys in morally challenging situations, and their decisions in the face of these dilemmas help to deepen and develop their characters.

Overall, "The Bad Guys 2" is a sequel that surpasses the original. With its distinctive art direction and a plot full of surprises, the film strikes a perfect balance between action and humor. It delivers thrilling moments alongside genuinely funny ones, making it an entertaining and heartwarming movie for audiences of all ages.

After getting released from prison, the Bad Guys are trying to be Good. It's not easy. It doesn't help that new criminal Phantom Bandit is stealing artifacts and leaving clues which point back to the Bad Guys. They decide to prove their innocence by solving the case for Commissioner Luggins. Governor Diane "Crimson Paw" Foxington agrees to help.

I continue to like this gang of characters. In the same breath, I continue to want more out of this franchise. These guys need to have something important to say or have stakes that are bigger than the fun of stealing a fast car. I like to see them grow. I would have liked for some more growth in their second movie. It does suggest another change for the third movie and we'll have to see.

Now, I'll admit. The trailers, were not 100% doing it for me. I found it weird that they were doing a sequel about the bad guys, who are no longer bad? And the way the trailer showed us the bad girls, seems extremely forced in there. But I'm pleased to say, that the trailers kind of miss marketed the movie. First off, it's more bad guys. If you like, what the first movie did. If you like these characters. The sequel delivers exactly what that first movie delivered on. The heist, the great character moments, the spy elements. Everything that makes that first movie as good as it is, is all in the sequel. And like I mentioned before, I was worried about the bad guys now being good, I thought making a sequel with them good, would make it feel like a forced sequel. But that is not the case at all, the movie goes down a certain direction that makes the plot work. But I'm glad that we got a sequel now making them good people, because this movie would not have been the same thing without that plot line in there. That I am now excited and want more sequels based on these characters. I want to see a whole franchise built with them! This needs to be DreamWorks next big franchise they have because they can now do so many storylines with them. And since there's books on them, I expect that we will be getting that. Now, let's talk about the bad girls. The main part of this movie. And I gotta say, I love what they did with them. Throughout the entire movie I was just thinking about how great of villains they are, I haven't broke this fully down so I don't know 100% on how I would feel about it, but there's a chance that these villains are a top 10 DreamWorks villain. Take everything great about the bad guys but this time as a villain switching that perspective up. That's why they're such great villains. And I gotta say, I think this movie is better than the original. It's not by much, if you check my ranking is only a spot higher. It really only depends on my mood, but right now I'm feeling the second one is better. I think the villains are 10 times stronger, I think a lot of the character moments and stakes are 10 times stronger, and it's still captures all the magic from the original film. This is a great sequel to the original film. But it's not without its problems. For starters, yes, this movie is fun, it still gives us everything great about the original film. But when leaving the theater, all I thought was, yeah that was fun/cool. And sitting down writing this review, it just seems like a distant memory that happened. It didn't seem like I watched the movie today. So it's a movie you can watch. Enjoy your time with it and continue on with your day. Not really something that sticks in your mind for a long time. And although I do love the villain, I do question the plan in the long run. Although all the set up is great, I was very confused on what the villain wanted to do once they won. But, this is a great sequel to the original film that carries out everything you love about the original film, and in my opinion is slightly better than it. It's as funny, but with higher stakes, better villains, and I can't wait to see what future installments have to bring.

I feel mostly the same about this one as I did the first. Very stylized, funny, active, and constantly engaging with gorgeous animation, constant movement in the cinematography, sleek production design, and absolutely hilarious gags, jokes, and nods to the crime genre. Really consistent entertainment and very fun for the whole family, with jokes balancing between all- appealing and more kid-centered. Rapid-fire wit and pacing help a story with a marvelous central theme and memorable characters backed by an excellent voice cast who you can tell have so much fun in these roles. It's definitely obvious and predictable, not every joke lands, and some sequences stand out more than others, but I'm surprised at the clever storytelling from both this one and its predecessor. I would happily watch more in the future.

The Bad Guys 2 is a highly entertaining sequel that successfully builds on the fun and charm of the first film. It brings back the same group of lovable misfit characters, each with their own unique personality, and adds some fresh twists to keep the story engaging. The movie is full of fast-paced action, clever humor, and heartwarming moments that remind us why we loved these characters in the first place.

One of the film's strongest points is its animation style-vibrant, stylish, and full of energy. The visuals feel like a mix of comic book flair and classic heist-movie cool, which makes it stand out from other animated films. The pacing is snappy, the action scenes are creative without being overwhelming, and the soundtrack adds a lot of flair.

What really makes the movie work, though, is the chemistry between the characters. Their teamwork, banter, and development feel genuine and fun to watch. There's also a nice balance between comedy and deeper themes like trust, redemption, and finding your place in the world. These moments give the film emotional depth without slowing it down.

It's not a perfect film-it doesn't take many risks, and some parts feel a bit familiar if you've seen the first one. But for a sequel, it holds up impressively well and keeps the spirit of the original alive while offering enough new content to feel fresh.

Overall, The Bad Guys 2 is a fun, smart, and well-animated adventure that works for all ages. I'd give it a strong 8 out of 10. It may not break new ground, but it delivers exactly what it promises-and does it with style and heart.
