I watched The Butterfly Effect 2


I watched first film many years ago and i like it. Now is time for mini-review of sequel:

+ cast
+ music
+ idea about photos as link to the past,
+ story
+ ending
+ Nick
+ some open cases in the plot,
+ mysterious

- too much sex scenes,
- scenes in bar
- some stupid actions,
- no many twists and turns,

TOTAL: 7/10

There is one huge mystery which is unsolved and open for interpretation. Film little hints that Jason Treborn (father of Evan from first film) can be Nick's father. Nick's mother told him that his father had ablities to travel to the past and it lead him to suicide but it can be a lie.
There is also a possiblity that film follows ending from BE1 director's cut where Evan killed himself and that Nick is another child of Evan parents.

The ending reveals that Nick's son also has back-to-the-past ablities and there is a little gate for another story. It is also open for interpretation. There is a possiblity that Nick reicarnated into his son.

It is good movie but BE1 is much better.

you can't evaluate any thing by counting beans, the movie is garbage, it doesn't matter there are some interesting stuff. the ending is totally stupid and meaningless. the movie had potential but didn't deliver. the crappy long sex scenes was to substitute lack of ideas for the story.

they should of just based it off the original and go from there, Nick could of been a different miracle baby
