    The Bridge Curse 2

    This movie definitely gets way too much hate. Firstly, it's definitely better than its predecessor by leaps and bounds. The visual effects are not great and the plot is pretty unoriginal to say the very least, but the acting is solid, the message is deeper than I expected from a film if this caliber, and it's pretty easy to follow.

    If you're a fan of Taiwanese horror movies, you will definitely love this one for sure. Don't listen to the other reviews and check it out if you're on the fence. It's obviously nowhere near the best horror movies that's done out of Taiwan, but it's certainly a good one to be sure.

    Runnier by the special effects.

    After viewing the original I was shocked to see that this was touted as a remake and not a sequel and after enjoying the original I thought I would sit down and watch this remake.

    So last night I settled in and watched.

    Boy do I wish I didn't.

    Firstly it barely had anything to do with the bridge from the original one, so why the same title?

    The first 29 minutes were good and I was enjoying it but when they went to the library and did the four corners game, the film ruined itself. There were way to many special effects that ruined the tension of the movie.

    If they had kept to the bare minimum of effects and kept the tension up then this would have been a really good film but no they went with substance over style and ruined the whole thing.

    After that the film got worse and worse.

    Okay the ending was good and screamed out for a sequel, if they do I hope that they go the way if the original and not the remake.

    Overall very disappointing movie, stick to the original.

    A lot of filler

    I didn't realise that this was a sequel until I got to the end credits. I don't think I missed much in the first film and I don't think anyone will miss anything if you don't see this one. It really is a generic demon ghost zombie terrorising teeangers with an unimaginative story, unoriginal production design, forgettable music and sound design and worst of all a really unengaging cast. The acting is perfectly adequate but the characters are not interesting. The best bit about the film are the 'games' but there are only like 2 of these and a lot of filler. It's really not worth watching and not even good enough at being bad.

    DIRECTOR .....MUKHE NAO

    TIME WASTING...KHANKI MAGI MOVIE.... "Khankir Chele" (translating roughly to "The Whore's Son") is not a movie that tiptoes around sensitive issues. Directed by emerging filmmaker Shafiq Rahman, this intense social drama dives headfirst into the underbelly of society, exploring themes of identity, shame, stigma, and self-discovery. With a name as provocative as its premise, "Khankir Chele" sets out to disturb, engage, and ultimately challenge viewers to rethink the way we judge and marginalize others.

    The story follows Rakib, a young man growing up in the slums of Dhaka, known mostly as "Khankir Chele" due to his mother's occupation as a sex worker. From his earliest days, Rakib is ridiculed, beaten, and ostracized, not for anything he has done, but simply because of who his mother is. Society stamps him as dirty, criminal, and unwanted before he ever gets a chance to speak for himself.

    WHAT A BAD DIRECTOR AND MOVIE SCRIPT

    From the very beginning, it becomes painfully clear that this film is an exercise in frustration. The plot-or what passes for one-attempts to be complex and engaging but instead spirals into an incoherent mess that leaves the audience confused and irritated. It's like being strapped into a rollercoaster that never stops spinning, a ride you can't escape from no matter how much you want to. Every time you think the film might be on the verge of redeeming itself, it takes another wild turn into absurdity, leaving you more baffled than before.

    One of the biggest problems with this film is its sheer lack of direction. The narrative is so disjointed that it's impossible to follow any semblance of a coherent storyline. Characters are introduced and discarded with little to no explanation, subplots are started and then abandoned without resolution, and the pacing is so erratic that you're never quite sure what's happening or why you should care. It's as if the filmmakers threw every idea they had into a blender, hit "puree," and served the resulting mess to the audience without any consideration for logic or structure.

    The film also suffers from an identity crisis. It seems to be unsure of what it wants to be-a thriller? A drama? A psychological horror? It tries to be all these things at once but fails spectacularly in each attempt. The tonal shifts are jarring and poorly executed, making it impossible to invest in the story or the characters. One minute, the film is trying to be dark and edgy, and the next, it's attempting (and failing) to inject humor into the proceedings. The result is a muddled, confused mess that doesn't know what it's trying to say or why.

    The characters are another major issue. They're poorly written, flat, and unlikable. Not one of them is relatable or worth rooting for, and their motivations are either unclear or nonsensical. Watching them stumble through the plot is like watching puppets with their strings tangled-it's a frustrating, cringe-worthy experience. The actors do their best with what they're given, but even the most talented performers would struggle to bring life to these one-dimensional characters.

    Visually, the film is a nightmare. The cinematography is bland and uninspired, with scenes that are either too dark to see what's happening or so overexposed that they hurt your eyes. The special effects, if you can call them that, are laughably bad-more suited to a low-budget student film than a professional production. The editing is choppy and inconsistent, adding to the overall sense of disorientation and confusion. It's as if every aspect of the film was designed to be as unpleasant and disorienting as possible.
