 Man, so the first film came out surprised the hell out of me and now we have part 2. How was it? Let's find out. My name is Brandon Keith-Avery and this is just my opinion. Hey, what's going on guys? Thank you so much for tuning in to my opinion slash review. For a happy death day to you, I really do appreciate it. So I was really looking forward to this film as well. This is in my top 25, top whatever of 2019 really anticipating this film. First one came out like October 2017 and now we have a sequel. I did not expect for them to make a sequel. I didn't really know where they could go with this, but the first one made so much money that you know you have to make a sequel. I mean, I really do have a high respect for Jason Blum. He is the producer of this film, his film studio, you know, he's a part of this. They make movies for $1, $2, $5 and they are always able to turn over a healthy profit and I can't get mad at that. But at the same time, when it comes to, you know, these type of films like that, you know, they're making money and things, you know, one would think like, okay, man, you know, they made the first one, oh, they're making a sequel now. You know, the first one was a budget of 4.8 million dollars. They're making a sequel. It's just some money grab, you know, that's all the story is going to suck. It's not going to be as good. No, I am not going to say that about happy death day to you. This is not just some money grab. This is not just some cheap watered down sequel. The director of these films, happy death day and happy death day to you. Writing director is Christopher Landon and especially with this sequel right here. It is very early on, you can tell that he really sat down as like, I don't want to just make another cheap rehash, no pun intended. I want to make something that will stand out, that ties into the first film and also stands alone on its own and you could and, you know, he did that and I want to give him credit because I don't even think the first film is even necessary for you to see, for you to understand this film. I think you will still walk away and appreciate something and that just shows that just goes to show how good it is. Now, of course, it would help if you saw the first film and I've only seen the first film one time and I really don't remember all the details and what this second film does is in a very clever, unique way is give you a recap of all of what happened in the first film without actually shoving it down your face. It actually fits within the plot, within the story and this is all cohesive, which makes it a much, much better film. And the thing about it is, while you're getting more of the sameness in the first one, what's great about it, you're getting something different. This film starts completely different and you, besides some of the characters that you may know from the first, you're just like, okay, is this the same movie? Like, are we going to focus on this group of people? These group of people, and it's just really creative with what they're doing, with time, with time travel and looping and things like that. And I don't want to say any more because I don't want to spoil it for you. But I was just sitting there watching it and joining myself like, wow, they really did think this through. This is amazing. I cannot believe that such a cheaply made, well-produced film is able to do this. I mean, they really have a Groundhog's Day franchise now, you know, in modern-day time, with horror, suspense, thriller elements. And it's great. The film is funny. It's suspenseful. There are a lot of edgier-seat moments that, you know, do not get tired or boring. Literally, I say this often, but I had no idea how this film would end. Now, the ending of this film was a little bit abrupt. And towards the end of it, I was kind of saying to myself, okay, can we get to the end now? I think y'all are stretching it out just a little bit too much. But it isn't, it's not enough to ruin the whole film or ruin the experience. I mean, I had a great time. Everybody in the theater had a great time. You know, it's a great film. It's funny. It's clever. It's scientific. You can learn a lot. You even aspire to do some Google searches on Google or YouTube just to kind of find out about more of the elements that they had in this film. Jessica Roth is playing the main character as Tree. And then she was great in the first film. She was great in this. And I mean, there's like 77,000 twists in this movie. You're just not going to predict it. It is impossible. Unless you are a part of making this film, you will have no idea how it would end. This is a great sequel, guys. I really do recommend it. I don't want to necessarily say it is as great as the first one because towards the end, there was a good five to 10 minutes that I felt it was just completely unnecessary. Okay, I was like, okay, y'all could have cut this out. Y'all are just stretching it too far and it was complete. It didn't take the film anywhere. So if I were to rate Happy a Death Day to you out of a one out of 10, I'm gonna give it an eight out of 10. Okay, I'm gonna give it an eight out of 10. It deserves it. It's a great film. And if you like the first one, you will like this one too. But guys, that is just my opinion. Have you seen Happy a Death Day to you or do you want to see it? How about I turn you on?
