Watch The Dentist 2 For Free

Sorry, this movie sucks

Best movie of this year hands down!

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

In 1996 we were introduced to our psychotic dentist played by Corbin Bernsen, a man drove insane by the stresses of his job and catching his wife blowing the pool boy.Two years later he breaks free from the asylum, switches state, changes his name and starts all over again.But before you know it his inner darkside is unleashed and he torments his victims in the way that only he can.This is a slight improvement on the first but still not exactly impressive stuff. The one standout thing that it does have is just how grisly and hard to watch the death scenes are. I mean seriously, it's pretty bad.Harmless enough watch for fans of the original but as a franchise its hardly worth the effort especially as part 3 was cancelled.The Good: Direct sequel The Bad: Not the easiest of viewing Things I Learnt From This Movie: I may never go to the dentist again

"You know the drill" may be a good tagline for the sequel, but whoever said that this was better than the first is wrong. Basically Dr. Alan Feinstone (Corbin Bernsen), the dentist gone over the edge from the previous film, has escaped from the mental hospital, and under the name Dr. Lawrence Caine he has gone to the quiet Midwestern town, Paradise, Missouri. He is hoping to resume a normal life, and after killing the town's only dentist he has no choice but to take over. He soon settles back in without finding the urge to kill, that is until he sees the woman he has a thing for bonking another bloke. Obviously this sets him off again, orally torturing his patients, if only you saw it happen more than once! Meanwhile, a private eye hired by Feinstone's toothless and tongueless ex-wife Brooke Sullivan (Linda Hoffman) and a couple of other nosey parkers are on the lookout for him. Also starring Jillian McWhirter as Jamie Devers, Susanne Wright as Bev Trotter, Wendy Robie as Bernice and Clint Howard (Ron's brother) as Mr. Toothache. The dialogue is even cheesier than the first film, and there is nowhere near enough horrific and slightly funny torture sequences, and not even Bernsen can save it from being nearly completely boring. Adequate!

Now seriously, I'm not the type of guy who complains every time a villain doesn't make it through a movie with his life. There have been plenty of great movies with excellent antagonists who I am am glad survived their roles. Dr. Alan Feinstone is definitely not among them. As anal and irritating a character as he was in the first movie, (though I don't blame Corben Bernsen for that. He did the best he could with the script he was given.) the mad dentist goes about pretty much the exact same path of seemingly pointless destruction as he did in the first, and for pretty much the same reason. This banal rehash of the original film brings pretty much nothing new to the equation, and the lack of bitter, demanding, dentist cadaver at the end of the blood bath just makes the entire piece a complete wash. Afterall, the least they could do for making us sit through the same mind numbing gratuitous dental shock fest twice is give us a mutilated maimed and dismembered title character at the end and deliver the sanctity of knowing for certain that there will never be another. Overall, it was awful, and even if the last fifteen minutes were a brutal ongoing death scene for Dr. Feinstone (which would have made the piece at least palatable, I'll admit.) this movie still couldn't hope to get more than a three and a half.

I actually didn't mind this movie, shot in a straight to video way, as was the original. Please don't watch this movie thinking that it is a scary movie, just get ready to cringe at the horrible torture scenes. The acting is poor, apart from Bernsen's performance which was great, this has been made not as a serious film but as a bit of a craic. Sick, sadistic and very cheesy in places, it is impossible not to wince at some of the scenes, but I thought it was OK, nowhere near as good as the original, but good fun all the same.The position of the ex wife is a bit weird, the only reasons for her being in the film was for the ending, a lot of rip offs from other movies, but some of the deaths are quite interesting. The ending was tacked on just in case the makers wanted to make a sequel, which I don't think that should be made, or in fact will be. Feinstone shouldn't turn into Freddy, Jason, Mike Myers (not Shrek!!) et al.6.5 out of 10
