HAPPY DEATH DAY 2U

Watchable. I had as much fun as at part one, which you don't have to remember by the way, it's summarised and explained early on. The 1 hour 40 minutes are loaded with action, piling up new twists so you can't get bored. The plot is consistent with part 1. A few scenes were so touching I shed some tears. On the other hand some suicides were so drastic it was over the top. Light music, sometimes good, sometimes a bit worse. The finale features the Gibbs' brothers' "Stayin' Alive", performed by the Lizz. The mid-credit is a complete scene telling you what to expext in part 3.

NAPSZALLTA (SUNSET)

Walked out. Nothing much happens and even when you hear of some brutal events, it's toned down too much to evoke any emotions. Set in 1910 so maybe there is some historic background but I know nothing about history of Central Europe so it doesn't speak to me at all. Shot in grim dark brown.
