Please maintain a childlike innocence and give full marks to this sequel.

I didn't want to comment at first, but seeing such a low score and some classmates who are talking about the truth, I couldn't help but say a few words.

The classics of the previous work will not be repeated. Since this is the second part, it must be related. So those who say that the first work is good, the second part of the fried rice, you may not understand the story of Stephen King at all.

The original author is a master of horror, but if it is just horror, it is not enough to be called a master. Just like the clown, this is actually a story about the useless children who break through the layers of difficulties and live out themselves in a terrifying guise!

Who has not had childhood? Who doesn't want a friend to help when they were bullied as a child? The reason why a master is a master is to write down the real life and desires.

On the other hand, in the second part, the children are adults, and those who have been baptized in a complex society are not as good as their childhood self. As said at the beginning of the film, most people just want to remember the good and forget the bad. So they have been struggling to avoid it, unwilling to face the past, and even sacrificing friends around them. All this, how much like us in life!

Aren't most of us, just like the protagonists in the movie, the older we get, the more we forget, the more indifferent and numb we are?

There is a sentence in the movie that says: We will be separated one day, just like your parents no longer meet their former friends.

How ordinary, but need life insights, ah! Ironic, helpless, and thought-provoking.

Yes, the second part, like the first part, is a journey of pursuit. But the first one is the courage to pursue friendship and life. The second part is about chasing after the old self, the innocent, happy, caring and loving self with buddies and friends.

If there are still people who don't understand this, I can only laugh. It can only be said that perhaps, you are still young and have not experienced and lost.

Finally, thank you to the director and actors for presenting such a warm scene when the cold wind blows.

    Disappointing, there is neither the amazing weirdness of the trailer, nor the aura of the children's version, the nearly three-hour plot is extremely lengthy! The plot of finding things separately is really convincing, the pace is slow and not good-looking, everyone has a lot of jump scare that is nothing new and extremely low-level, once or twice is enough, and it goes on for an hour, no point. Yan, you can see the numbness, okay? After collecting all the magical tools and talking about it for a while, you still rely on the slapstick to get the boss. Is it the most powerful way to exorcise ghosts in ancient and modern times?

    3.5, it's a little guilty to hit four stars. The foreshadowing is too long, the memories and demons of each character are trying to be presented in all aspects, and the rhythm control is not smooth (I doubt that this kind of redundant narrative and the "pull" in some settings that follow may be the novel itself existing problems). The visual effect of the horror paragraph is very good, and several "strange" style monsters are quite eye-catching. Unfortunately, these frights always end in "false alarms", and the repeated times make people feel weak. The emotional grasp of friendship and growth is still in place, but the innocence and fun of the first 80's youth group horror film is still less effective when it falls on adults. But even so, the film is enough to crush most of this year's popular horror films.
