Nice job, Tim!
This was a competent and clever sequel that lives up to it’s predecessor in almost every way. It helps having the majority of the original cast, as well as some welcome new faces. It’s also nice to have Tim Burton back in the director’s seat. He was able to keep the feel from the original and translate it just enough to keep the style without it feeling like a stale rehash.
Even if it takes a bit to get started, once it does, you’ll be hooked
My only negative for the film is that it takes quite a while before we get to all the Beetlejuice stuff. Granted, there’s a lot of story to cover between the original and now, but some of it could have been condensed into shorter segments. Overall, it’s a true to the original sequel with all the zany and quirky natured things the original has. If you weren’t a fan of the original, this one won’t change your mind.
4 Bobs out of
However, if you were a fan and you crave more story, you can’t go wrong with this albeit unnecessary, but welcomed, sequel.
