Review of [Rec]²

[Rec]² (2009)
6/10
The continuation of the tragedy
12 March 2024
"REC 2" continues the story shortly after where they left off in the first installment. It maintains the same intensity, more action, more terror, but it forgets something very important: innovation. It can't be that a movie is set in the same building all the time because it becomes too overwhelming.

The characters are still wonderful, and the atmosphere remains the same, which might be the problem. There's a need to explore new connections and spaces to make it dynamic. Otherwise, it becomes monotonous, which is what has happened here. People go in with high expectations from the first installment, and now the level drops due to this key aspect.

In conclusion, it's a good movie but a poor continuation because it lacks a spark of innovation.
