Movie Reviews

The New York Times - 7/10 by Janet MaslinAs stomach-turning as might be expected, but it has a lot going for it: clever special effects, a good leading performance and a villain so chatty he practically makes this a human-interest story.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - 3/10 by Jay ScottThis hastily-produced sequel ignores the dreamstalking premise that had made A Nightmare on Elm Street successful and reverts to the overfamiliar possession story.
User Review - 8/10 by robertoiglesiasA Nightmare on Elm Street 2 might be strange, but it can be interesting and scary.
User Review - 8/10 by Rcavey92212Growing up I was all about the final girls. So this chapter in my favorite franchise wasn't at the top of my list. But as I grew up, realized I was gay and started to hear about the films in your face subtext. This became one of my favorite entries. Centering around Jesse played by a cute, likable Mark Patton who moves into Nancy's house. Before he knows it our favorite charasmatic villain starts haunting him in hopes of possessing him so he can be reborn into the real world. The film is flooded with the queer goods but in addition to all that it's actually a really unique genre film. Robert Englund is truly fantastic as Freddy he's darker, sexual, perverted and disturbing. The performances are pretty solid all around. Also impressive is Kim Myers as Tina our final girl next to our final boy. She's vulnerable, relatable and strong. Although the director still denies his homoerotic intentions. I mean the guy has a scene in a gay s&m bar and let's not even talk about when the coach is killed. Really it's quite obvious but the film is really creepy, fun and entertaining and has aged really well. It's more complex and relevant now than ever. Budget: $3m Domestic Box Office: $30m Worldwide Box Office: $30m 4.
User Review - 6/10 by Gamzguy17Ignoring the lore of its own series, "Part 2" tries to be its own beast underneath the surface. Like many a-solid Horror film, it has fun with itself and unashamedly so. For movie goers/pop culture analysts, it is a sweet little treat. General audiences will likely not care too much.
User Review - 6/10 by JLauFreddy possesses a kid who moves into the house from the first film, making him kill others, mostly at a pool party, but his girlfriend stands by him throughout and helps him make it to the end.
User Review - 5/10 by Sosmooth1982My least favorite out of the series. Didn't like this one because Freddy wasn't really killing any one until the end. He used a live human to kill for him. So it was kind of dumb.
User Review - 5/10 by royalguy07I was bored until somebody got towel spanked multiple times before dying. Possession angle was pretty dull all things considered especially with losing the nightmare angle. 1 death over an hour in is not what anyone signed up for. Jesse would 100% be serving multiple life sentences.
User Review - 5/10 by kyle20ellisThe original 'A Nightmare on Elm Street' is still to me one of the scariest and best horror films there is, as well as a truly great film in its own right and introduced us to one of the genre's most iconic villains in Freddy Krueger. It is always difficult to do a sequel that lives up to a film as good as 'A Nightmare on Elm Street' let alone one to be on the same level. 'A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge' is not to me the dreadful film as reputed, but, while its attempts to do something different is admirable, it should have been much better than it turned out to be. It is very difficult to not feel disappointed when you inevitably compare 'A Nightmare on Elm Street' to its first sequel and find that the drop in quality is so significant and hard to ignore. Whether 'Freddy's Revenge' is the worst of the series is debatable, to me and many others it is one of the weaker ones. 'Freddy's Revenge' is not a complete waste of time. It starts off very promisingly, with the bus scene is thrillingly unsettling. Easily the film's scariest moment and the scene one remembers the most. Robert Englund is still very freaky and shows why Freddy is so iconic as a villain, he may not be quite as terrifying but the material isn't as strong here and he is still highly effective. It's not a bad-looking film, there is a slickness to it and there are some nightmarish effects. There are some eerie moments, though none of the rest of the film lives up to the bus scene, and some amusing dark humour. The music is suitably haunting. However, there are also a fair share of problems. The scares don't come enough, and while there are effective ones there are also just as many that are perfunctory and pretty tame by 'A Nightmare on Elm Street' series standards. Credit is due for trying to do something different and there are parts that do intrigue. A tighter pace and less pedestrian direction would have made the execution better, as well as trying to do less and focus more on the quality of the scares and how the story is told. Jesse is such a dull damp squib of a character who lacks a quick-thinking or logical brain let alone any kind of presence. The one-note expressionless acting of Mark Patton accentuates this. The rest of the cast are nowhere near as bad, but when it comes to the acting the only one to properly rise above the material is Englund. Lastly, the ending is a slap in the face and really undoes Freddy's character, he would never do what he does at the end and it doesn't make sense for him to do it. Overall, not that bad but could have been much better.
User Review - 5/10 by akshatmahajanA Nightmare on Elm Street Part 2: Freddy's Revenge was average movie. This movie didn't have charm, originality and grasping power like the original. The concept was same as original with some bad changes. The problem was that the execution of the idea was not good. Also, the acting wasn't good. Film contains some creepy moments, but not that much hyped moments. Overall, this is an average movie but the bad direction and poor acting drag down this particular movie.
