Review of Reel 2

First let me just say everyone on here giving 10 stars is obviously either the family, friends or cast and crew because this movie is really not special at all! I saw the first one and I remember feeling that was a bit mediocre but this one maybe worse! It's a shame because it starts out pretty promising. The way it's edited and the story it's sets up is kinda interesting at first, but then it starts going downhill quick and never recovers. First the movie is way too long. Then the next is unbelievable way they try to make this movie blend with reality ala Blair Witch. It just doesn't work. Also the cast are unlikable and annoying, especially the main baddies voice filter will have you cringing the whole movie. But easily the worse thing about this film by far is the choppy, seizure inducing editing that will drive you nuts when you reach the hour mark.

It's a shame because there generally feels Like there's a good movie buried in here somewhere. Some of the editing is quite well done even if it's too much. At times it does work though, it's just a shame it's over used to an annoying level. And there's some good shots thrown around throughout the film. At times there was some good tension. Especially at one scene near the end. But alas it's too long and annoying to really make this film out to be the classic other reviewers are falsely claiming it to be.

Watch it only if your a fan of the original. If not there's really no point in seeing this one.
