By honing in on the deeply personal journey of its protagonist, Smile 2 invites audiences to form an intense, empathetic bond with the main character as she battles the harrowing force of the Smile possession. Naomi Scott’s remarkable performance breathes life into this struggle, drawing viewers into her world of terror and vulnerability with unparalleled skill. Her portrayal elevates Smile 2, making it one of the most compelling horror films of the past decade. This is a cinematic experience not to be missed—Smile 2 is best felt on the big screen, where every chilling moment resonates.

While watching Beetlejuice, I felt the pacing of the film was uneven. A significant portion of the movie was spent developing certain characters, particularly the villains, but their arc resolved too quickly and lacked depth. Despite the lengthy buildup, there wasn’t much tension or sense of high stakes. The resolution felt rushed, with the protagonists overcoming the challenges too easily, leaving little room for meaningful conflict or opposition. This diminished the overall impact of the film’s climax and made it feel less engaging than it could have been.

An overall thrilling experience. It's suspenseful and really keeps you glued to the screen during the action moments. There are some slow bits, but I guess they are necessary to build a relationship with the characters. Overall, it's a must-watch movie that will keep you entertained. Definitely a cinema-worthy experience.
