I honestly don’t understand why this film is getting so much hatred, it was very good and especially tense at times. Of course it’s not going to be *quite* as brilliant as the first strangers movie, but hey that’s what comes with most follow up films. Its obviously gonna be hard to compete with the original and that’s just how it is.
Don’t get me wrong though. I have watched lots of horror films especially of the slasher genre, and this one genuinely had me captivated from start to finish. Overall it’s both a fun and suspenseful horror film to watch. The acting may not be perfect at times and the characters may seem dumb. I mean after all the 2 main protagonists ARE teenagers, so the way they react to or deal with scary/difficult situations seems fairly accurate, which I would know...being a teen myself as of typing this.
I’d suggest that you at least watch this movie yourself to form a personal opinion and not to pay too much attention to what negative things other people have to say about it. It definitely doesn’t deserve the amount of criticism that it’s receiving and it’s a fairly good slasher movie, especially to have came out in 2018. Despite some of the dumb decisions that the characters make, it’s an entertaining movie. I’d give it a 7/10 :)
