Enjoyable

Rating: 7/10 (11 February 2005)

This is one sequel that ran the original very close in terms of quality and audience interest. I am a huge fan of Sam Raimi & this was the main reason I gave this flick a chance due to his superb Evil Dead trilogy. The effects are excellent which I thought they would be having viewed the original film. Lots of action coupled with good acting performances particularly by Toby Maguire who I think was average in the first but really gets into his role in this. Twas funny to see Bruce Campbell (Ash) & Dan Hicks (Jake) both from Evil Dead 2 in bit part roles in this. "Jake, you're holdin my hand too tight....!" "Baby, I ain't holdin your hand!"
Definitely gonna check out the 3rd installment in the series after this, lookin forward to it.
Check this film out.
Rating 7/10. Groovy.
