Watch Hotel Transylvania 2 For Free

The Worst Film Ever

Such a frustrating disappointment

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Yes, I liked this film more than the critics.In this sequel our mixed human-monster couple get married and Marvis (Selena Gomez) is pregnant in about 2 minutes. Marvis wants the raise the human child in California, which she loves, while Jonathan (Andy Samberg) who is bored with California wants him to stay in Transylvania. The film has humor for adults such as the Picasso painting. Was that ice scream cake or sour scream icing?The film pokes fun at our nanny culture and how we coddle our children with vampire summer camp.

Watched it directly after watching hotel transylvania 1 loved it amazing movie

I watched this movie in 3D, which should be an immersive experience.The animations are done very well, the direction or writing is *very* bad. The movie doesn't flow and feels like it pulled apart another animation movie, made their observations into "rules and laws" and recomposed it in fragments. So it turns out to be a mozaïque of something else trying to be something new. It didn't work.The entire movie felt as if they have made a storyboard and had sent these boards slide by slide to the animation department to render the scenes without any transition. And then over-manage the scenes while there isn't any transition. Like a slideshow.Added to this, when two characters interact, the atmosphere is gone. It's usually an empty room, slightly faded in the background. The only moment there is much going on is on the party, but then there is too much chaos to take it all in. While other scene's were rushed in and felt empty. While music felt artificially placed instead of blending away.For example, you have a dialogue character one says something. Expression. second character does a motion and expression in a different scene it seems. Zip back to the first character, says another thing. Slight pauze. Then the other character frowns, in another setting it seems. Back closeup to the first character. It's too, fragmented. And doesn't flow. This movie doesn't flow at all. It's like sitting in an amusementpark ride, and a sensor trips to display a scene of animatronics. The door closes, the animatronics die out. Another opens. Another animatronic.Not even to mention the attempt to put in some stereotypes through voicing. The voicing is so without emotion and so dry. Say line. Stop. Say next line. Stop. The animators on this movie were very wonderful, the others not so much. It was a waste of my time and probably you too.

This sequel was really without the humour of part 1. Where in the original the atmosphere was breathtaking, this was just hey, look at how funny us monsters can be like. Lots of jokes for adults only to understand or appreciated. So short slapstick kind of takes but no real story let alone character developing. The kids a was watching this movie with were quiet almost throughout the whole movie except for the end were finally some plot came about. We really loved the characters from the original movie so it was fun to see them again but it was sometimes painful to see all the short jokes I understood went blank on the kids. A solid 6 stars though. Not too shabby for a Friday night.
