Not horror at all. Terrible comedy.

After the first "act" I really thought this movie was going to be taking us down a rabbit hole of Rick and Morty style multiverse mindfuks, but then... nope. Just poor pacing, illogical script choices, and weird plot holes.

Should have stuck with the new main character instead of abandoning the promising plot with his double and just going back to Tree.

I can't believe they stole a joke from Clerks 2!

If you liked the first, you'll like the sequel. That's about as much as I can say about it.

As good as part one, neither more nor less. Exciting and innovative, unpredictable. Jessica Rothe makes a great acting job.

WARNING: WATCH THE FIRST ONE FIRST! If you are interested. This one spoils the first one very early on.

I really liked Happy Death Day, and while the sequel, Happy Death Day 2U, wasn't quite as focused, I liked it too. The first movie was a slasher flick with a Groundhog Day premise. The protagonist, Tree, relived the day of her murder until she solved and stopped it. Coming back to that day is a risky enterprise, but 2U puts the slasher element in the background and turns to science fiction to feed the second act. I don't want to say too much about the plot because a lot of the fun comes from the various surprises. I can say that Tree's character arc from the first film only seemed complete, but it's much harder to let go of the past than we were led to believe, and the emotional climax is so poignant, the plot's climax feels positively tacked on (but wait, after the animated part of the credits, there's an epilogue that either sets us up for a very different threequel, or else takes the piss - quite possible since it has fun mocking time travel tropes throughout). 2U switches gears a couple times like that, which keeps things interesting, if not completely cohesive.

I love both this and the first one, cool premise and both scary and hilarious.
Jessica Rothe is so fantastic in these, really amazing. so funny.
I do hope they make a third one!
