Critters 2 leans a bit more into the silliness of the series. Not to say that the original was a bleak take on gritty realism, but it did seem to take the danger a fraction more serious. It’s not something that works particularly for or against the sequel, it’s just a slight change, one that makes sense even. Establishes a real inter-connectivity in the franchise (that Critters would basically hold on to all the way up until that most recent one, which took some pretty wild liberties).Final rating:★★★ – I liked it. Would personally recommend you give it a go.
The first “Critters” movie was a low-budget little monsters sci-fi/horror film that, despite its limitations in money and tech, still managed to strike the right chord in balancing the sci-fi, horror, suspense, and comedy elements, even with a PG-13 rating (despite its theme, only two people actually die in the first movie). Unfortunately, despite the fact that you can see them trying really hard to recapture it, “Critters 2” falls short of the mark.A couple of issues lead to this conclusion. First, despite this film’s budget being double that of the first, it doesn’t really show. Most of it must have been blown on extra puppets, as this time there’s supposedly hundreds of Crites running around causing havoc. Which is weird because, honestly, the Crites feel like they barely have any actual screen time since the plot is also now divided between the attack of the Crites and the townspeople not believing the story of their previous attack and even blaming the attacks on the boy from the first film who has returned to town.
Which leads to the second problem. In the first film, there was an effort to give the Crites some semblance of character. While still voracious eating machines, they still have some minimal interaction with each other and the environment, which fleshes them out a little more. Here, even though we see them talk a couple times (in their own language), it’s little more than a one-liner here and there. There’s too many of them with no standouts or leaders to give them any character at all.
This all ends up making for a rather dull sequel to a surprisingly entertaining first film. Ultimately, it’s not a worthy follow-up.
Terrific sequel!
Two years after the first Krite attack on the Browns’s farm, everything was peaceful in Grover’s Bend but there are some remaining Krite Eggs still left and Brad Brown ( Scott Grimes) has traveled from Kansas City to visit his grandmother for Easter vacation. Soon the Eggs hatch as it makes trouble as the Krites has returned and the bounty hunters from space Ug ( Terrence Mann), Lee ( Roxanne Kernohan) and former town drunk turned bounty hunter Charlie ( Don Opper) head back to Earth, will they rescue the humans with the help of Brad or will everyone end up on the space monsters’s menu?Very entertaining and action packed sequel that is almost better than the original and THE only sequel in the series worth watching. What works here for this sequel is there’s more action, bigger special effects, off-the-wall humor, a more intense and dramatic score, Mick Garris’s directorial debut and of course there’s a memorable moment where Lee the faceless bounty hunter from space looks at a Playboy magazine and transforms into a beautiful nude blonde centerfold babe played by B-movie beauty Roxanne Kernohan. Look for Eddie Deezen ( best known for Mandark on “Dexter’s Lab” and Eugene from “Grease”) as a restaurant manager and there’s an amusing Freddy Krueger in-joke since the movie is from Freddy’s home known as New Line Cinema.
