Pretty Darn Good

Rating: 8/10 (7 March 2000)

While not being the best or most original movie, I really feel this movie has been unfairly lambasted by critics. There's a ton of cool effects, the characters are not one-dimensional as a whole, and there's some dark humor to keep things going. I think that as long as you buy into the horror formula of that when you think things can't get any worse, they do, and don't mind the fact that it's a little derivative of its predecessors, you're going to have a good time. Incidentally, without giving anything away, I think the movie does break one cardinal rule of the genre towards the end - I think you'll know what I mean when you see it.
