Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Mike LeMar At the beginning, the two cops are driving off after giving Mick a ticket. I thought in two seconds: "Here comes a missile of a bullet from afar to the back of one of their heads, leaving the other to endure the car spinning out of control and off the road, leading him to be mangled, unable to move, but alive of course just so that Mick can come along to finish him off face to face as he helplessly begs Mick for his life." How he begs is telling him that he can make the charge against him go away. I thought, "Or he could just make YOU go away." Then Mick goes, "...Or...I can make YOU go away." As for unnecessary gore, I'm talking about chopping the guy's body all up into every little segment he possibly can once he kills the young couple. Gore, like this, for example, isn't scary. It's just gross. And also pointless, because we get it: he's dead; so move on.

Movie Goer In a long time I hadn't been as excited about seeing a horror movie as I was when starting to watch Wolf Creek 2. The movie starts in a peaceful pace with two hikers roaming around the Australian outback.I absolutely think that this film achieves the same suspense and terror as the first film (Wolf Creek - 2005), and in my opinion is just as good. Without spoiling anything, the very first scene of the movie grabs the viewer right in with it. The scene is also one of the best opening scenes I've seen in a horror movie, with the amazing performance of John Jarratt, who fits the role of his character better than I could've ever imagined.In conclusion, if you dig horror movies, you won't be disappointed after seeing this one. Definitely check it out.

Truth Speaker The first Wolf Creek was brutal and unforgiving. Nothing out-of-the ordinary in story terms except that (spoiler alert) it had some decent performances and an unhappy ending. Wolf Creek 2 (spoilers ahead) doesn't have enough ideas to create one coherent story, so it combines three and allows some segments to become long and drawn-out. With obvious nods to Alien and Duel in places, performances are again decent but the lack of variety in the final act becomes boring. The film regularly pushes you over the limit of horror into abandon — too much violence and gore becomes tasteless and somehow turns you off to the peril. If this dude is gonna get away with it all the time; if the victims are all gonna make such dumb mistakes, why should I care?The opening scene is interesting — giving you a touch of empathy for the bad guy — but the rest doesn't live up to it. There's a modicum of hope that good will triumph, but not much. It could've been something different and memorable, but it's just a slasher film in the outback, despite its increased budget. Obviously, the producers want to keep this franchise going rather than just make a good two-film saga.Oh, and the Fargo-style, "this is based on a true story," lie has been done-to-death. You can stop that now.

santiagocosme I know comparisons are always a bad thing, but being the follow-up to a movie, you cannot help but to compare Wolf Creek 2 with its predecessor. As a general note, I still remember how I enjoyed the first one. The fact they claimed it was based on true events created that extra bit of interest that got me hooked right away. Unfortunately, in this sequel, they re-use this claim, but it just doesn't work. The bad guy has now become even more evil, an out of this world good shot and a man with as many resources and tricks as Mcgyver. It makes it simply impossible to believe that anyone like this has ever existed. At least, from the protagonist point of view. As for the story, I found it a little boring that it turned out to be a chase between the bad guy and a young chap during the entire movie. I watched it all but I kinda of felt like stopping the movie several times. Honestly, if you do not see this movie, you will not miss much
