Same ending as Casablanca down to the part where someone is scalded to death by goo in the toy factory with one employee.

Brad Dourif is a national treasure, but instead of being hidden within our nation's history, he's mostly hidden in horror movie history. Unfortunately, that's a much more tedious place to travel through. Not as violent though!

After revisiting the "Child's Play" series, I was surprised by exactly how much my memory combined the original and the sequel together. While no doubt because of the plot being a continuation following the character "Andy", in retrospect, the sequel was a surprisingly noticeable, but hard to pin-point, decline from the first. Although I've come to appreciate the attention to the story's continuity throughout the series from Don Mancini, sadly this sequel feels like a bigger, but weaker retread.

A well paced first two acts filled with late 80's horror goodness. Kyle is an icon. The last act is one of the most batshit crescendos in horror history. Gotta love it.

It really wouldn't be as bad of a film, if it did something new. It's got the same campy humor and style that was successful in the first one, but with a story and scares that just aren't as cool and satisfying. Not horrible, but a worse sequel for sure.

I love the father character who is constantly upset with a kid who experienced a horribly traumatic experience. C'mon, dad, give him a break! I can see why people enjoy this film more than the original -- the Chucky effects are not only better, but we get to see more of the foul-mouthed bad boy we have all come to love. There's also a lot of bright, fun setpieces. Me, though? I prefer the original ever-so-slightly. I liked its slow build.

The Spielberg and Stephen King vibes are gone. Bad acting, increased sadism. Way too many of what seems to be this series's money shots, extreme close-ups of Chucky's face. Chucky has more lines in this and his face never matches Dourif's voice well enough. The climactic factory setpiece goes on way too long, and then kills Chucky no less than three times, any one of which would have been enough to end the film on.

In horror movie franchises, the introductory "resurrection of the monster" of later installments, can often be somewhat contrived. But this one takes the fucking gold medal.

A complete retread of the original that really doesn't add anything new.

Ho-hum sequel that fails to capitalise on the strength of the original. It has none of the suspense, wit or visual invention of Holland's film and would essentially be a complete write off if it wasn't for the thrilling final sequence set in a toy factory. Dourif is amusing to hear as usual, and Chucky is always fun to watch, but he lacks adequate structural support. The film plays like a cheapie that was rushed into production.
