I think what makes someone looks like a total fucking cretin is calling someone else a total fucking cretin out of nowhere. But, hey, everyone has their own morality, don't they.
My thoughts are exactly the same. This is just psychological torture porn.
Smile 1 all the way. Smile 1 is a good horror movie; Smile 2 is just psychological torture porn.
It's shameful and disrespectful to the viewer that you watch a whole sequence to a movie and you get out knowing about the story and its universe nothing more than when you watched the first one.
In anime, that's what we call a FILLER. This whole movie is a filler, a big money-grabber filler. Great production, talented actress, but a very poor movie, with almost no story. Basically just a series of hallucinations until the final scene.
Go watch pornhub and stop making cinema the focus of your wanking.
Not only a very rich celebrity, but an egocentric, spoiled and unlikable one. I couldn't feel for her too. In the first one, you hope so much for the protagonist to survive, but in this second movie I couldn't care less. Don't get me wrong, I think the actress was pretty good (considering what was given to her), but the writing of her character was atrocious.
Is this really Skye or the entity? You never know
I completely agree with you, OP. Some hallucinations and illusions are nice and help to keep things positively confusing to the viewer. But making the entire film about hallucination, making it seems that we just watch a bunch of hallucinations, meaning that NOTHING was real, it's incredibly lame and destroys any possibility of taking this movie seriously. If it was all a series of hallucinations, the writers can do anything they want without having to care about internal logic, likelihood and plausibility. Just through anything in a scene and when it ends and you start to question about consequences – JUST KIDDING, IT WAS ALL AN HALLUCINATION, IT DIDN'T HAPPEN, :)))))))))
Besides, like you already pointed out, if the entity can create a state of perfect and indefinite hallucination, how can anyone beat this monster? Just make people hallucinate perpetually and only wake them minutes before taking over their mind completely; no one will NEVER beat an entity capable of that. This movie show that the entity can take complete control of your body AND mind; that's powerful beyond anything watchable as a credible conflict. I can't talk for other people, but I certainly don't mind watch a movie when there's no hope at all since the beggining.
It appears that, at least Morris' last appearance its a hallucination, that it's not him there, but the entity. But you're saying you believe that, even in his first appearance, "he" was already the entity? That the whole meeting in the bar was an illusion? I'm not so sure about that. What do you think the entity would gain by pretending being Morris? What would it accomplish explaining to Skye about its own story and the way to kill him?
