Ready or Not 2: Here I Come

Ready or Not 2: Here I Come is a worthy sequel, repeating some of the same beats as its predecessor, but cleverly reinvented so that it’s still unpredictable and hilariously bizarre.

It helps a great deal to have a wickedly fun ensemble ready to play this murderous game, led once again by a physical, engaged, immediate performance from Samara Weaving.

Happily, the narrative moves ahead quickly, the better to demonstrate new, inventive methods of reducing murder-happy billionaires to sloppy carcasses in between beats where Weaving and Newton get to play off of one another.

It’s a fun, John Wick-esque expansion of this world that seems sure to satisfy fans of the first instalment, with curious casual viewers welcomed along for the ride.

Ready or Not 2: Here I Come is an agreeable, if unnecessary sequel which, through its larger scale, proves that less is often more.

Ready or Not 2: Here I Come delivers short-term thrills in an emotionally hollow gore fest.

It’s billed as another horror comedy, but when tidbits of humor manifest, it feels forced. There are few notable moments.

the burst kills were fun! the setup like epstine and ensemble of weird characters coupled with surprising end, it was a decent sequel.

While Ready or Not: The Widow successfully amps up the budget, body count, and practical gore, it sacrifices the genuine tension that made the original so effective. By turning Grace into a bulletproof killing machine, the script erases her vulnerability, completely killing the suspense. The attempt to expand the mythology with new rival families only bogs the narrative down in heavy exposition. Furthermore, the film struggles with a jarring tone, constantly ruining its horror elements with forced humor. A talented supporting cast, including Kathryn Newton and Elijah Wood, is completely wasted on shallow, disposable characters. Relying heavily on lazy conveniences, magically ignored injuries, and a highly predictable plot, the final act feels like a manufactured commercial hook for another sequel. However, if you just want a mindless, bloody weekend watch, it might still entertain you.

Sadly, it is a bit of step-down from the first film. It's got some pacing issues, it's a bit too long, the melodrama with the sister isn't that interesting and the 3rd act is not as strong. However, you still get funny moments with some enjoyable gore and violence. Samara is great and the supporting cast is enjoyable enough. Plus Samara Weaving in a black Wedding Dress just does something for me

I really did not enjoy Ready or Not 2: Here I Come. It only has glimpses of the first film. It gave up the genre, the horror, the look and the stakes of the original. It's supposed to feel grander, but it only feels unnecessary. Like most of the exposition. It's probably for the best that I'm not going to write a full review. The best part was Kathryn Newton's addition.

Totally a waste of time full 106 minutes of pure torture I started watching it because I already watched part one and I thought that would be as good as part one but now I’m really really disappointed. I would not recommend anyone to waste their time on this piece of crap.
