Leprechaun Returns

I really wanted to like this movie. When I saw the trailer, I thought it wouldn't be that bad. It was, and wasn't. I admire that they at least put effort into the Leprechaun. Sure, he might not look like the original, but I think he looks damn good. I will say there was a lot of cringy scenes, but that has to go with the writing. If you have seen all the Leprechaun films then check this one out. Fans of the first will probably enjoy that this is a direct sequel, but it doesn't live up to the hype.

Well, first of all I must admit that the "Leprechaun" movie franchise haven't been all that much of a spectacular franchise to begin with. But having seen the 2018 addition, I must say that they should have let the franchise go to a blissful sleep many, many years ago and just let it sink into oblivion.

This movie wasn't even remotely scary, nor did it have anything in it that came close to being scary. It felt like a spoof on its own franchise in a way. Whether or not that was intended, I can only speculate, but I highly doubt it.

The leprechaun in this movie wasn't portrayed by Warwick Davis, whom solely is the leprechaun character through and through. He just have so much more mannerisms and a charming quirk to his way of portraying the leprechaun character. The leprechaun in this 2018 addition felt like as if the air was slowly deflating from the balloon, as he lacked luster, charm and wickedness.

"Leprechaun Returns" was driven by a horrible flaccid storyline, which was so predictable that you saw things happening a mile away. Which was a shame, because that aspect took away a fair amount of enjoyment from the movie.

As for the characters in "Leprechaun Returns", well they were one-dimensional cardboard cutouts that lacked personalties and interest. It was like watching a horribly ill-fated theater production where no one on set was working together.

The jokes in "Leprechaun Returns" were flaccid and it just lacked that quirky dark humor that was present in the first couple of movies.

I managed to stick with this movie to the bitter end, though it was an ordeal to do so. This movie will probably disappear into oblivion as quietly as it managed to appear.

This film takes place 25 years after the event of the first film n therefore this is the original sequel. It also explains the whereabouts of the gold n how the Leprechaun returns. Makes more sense than all the other sequels. A group of students decide to spend their summer vacation turning the house (into some eco friendly project) of Tory Reding (Jennifer Aniston), now dead. One of the student is Tory's daughter. The small boy, his elder brother n Tory's father ain't present in this sequel but we hav Ozzie (the guy who swallowed the coin in the original). The sequels never explained what happened to him n the missing coin.

This is no doubt a worthy sequel n much much better than the awful 2014's Leprechaun Origins. The guy who played the leprechaun in this film did a nice job but Warwick Davis will always be remembered.

The rhyming jokes r back, the kills r gory n once again the film is set in proper daylight, shaky stuff n darkly shot scenes r avoided. Ther is one frontal/coronal plane body slicing scene, two decapitations, one decapitation with head smashing, tap rod mouth blasting scene, etc.

I was going in to this movie just like every other reboot or sequel from the 90s horror era that they decided to make now....but for a syfy movie this movie is good and it's funny. The new guy who played the leprechaun did good....Ossie from the original is good in this movie it's worth the watch.....and it's better then tales from the hood 2 and jeepers creepers 3

This movie was not bad at all. Obviously, don't watch it if your expecting to see an Oscar worthy film but if you are a fan of horror and cool ways to see people die, then give it a go! The director did a great job in taking this movie back to the original in the way of comedy. You won't get scared watching this film but you have a laugh or two. The return of Ozzy was really cool and they did a great job trying in the original film. I think what I enjoyed the most about this movie was the Leprechaun. Trying to fill the shoes of someone like Warwick Davis is pretty darn impossible but Pondo did an excellent job! He was hilarious and brutal just like the leprechaun should be.
