Nur noch ein kleiner Gefallen

Am I too boring or too "proper" or is it strange for anyone else who thinks it's "normal" to normalize incest and include pedophilia in a movie that is presented as a comedy?

And am I the only one who doesn't see any humor in it and doesn't find the movie funny? If it's an attempt at eccentric humor, it failed miserably. Such a shame.

Anna works very well with humor. She has a humor a la Tina Fey. I think Blake is average.

I didn't expect much but I didn't expect too little either. It just sounds like humor that tries too hard to be subtle and too clever and fails at everything it tries!

It's a little bit sad! KK.

"Another Simple Favor" tries to recapture the quirky charm and mystery of its predecessor, but ends up feeling like a forced, over-the-top sequel that forgot what made the original work. The plot is needlessly convoluted, filled with implausible twists that seem to exist just for shock value rather than story cohesion.

Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick reprise their roles, but their chemistry feels strained and less natural this time around. Instead of building tension or emotional depth, the film leans heavily into absurdity and camp, losing the balance between dark humor and thriller that made the first film engaging.

All in all, I find it disappointing.

"Another Simple Favor" attempts to recapture the quirky charm and twisted energy of its predecessor, but mostly falls flat. While it brings back the stylish aesthetic, witty banter, and familiar faces, it struggles to justify its own existence beyond nostalgia.

The plot tries to outdo the first movie with more twists and over-the-top antics, but ends up feeling forced and unnecessarily convoluted. Instead of building on what made "A Simple Favor" fun and darkly clever, this sequel leans into exaggerated absurdity, often sacrificing coherence for shock value.

Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick still have chemistry, but even their performances feel a bit weighed down by a script that doesn't give them as much to play with. The humor is hit or miss, and while there are entertaining moments sprinkled throughout, they're not enough to elevate the overall experience.

In the end, "Another Simple Favor" comes off as a flashy, mildly amusing follow-up that forgets what made the original work. It's not terrible-but it's far from memorable.

While the breathtaking scenes of Capri, Italy were undeniably stunning and provided a visual treat, the movie itself fell short of delivering a satisfying experience. Although the acting was commendable, with the cast bringing their characters to life with skill and charisma, the primary issue lay within the plot itself. The narrative felt disjointed and lacked the intrigue or depth needed to keep the viewer engaged. At times, the storyline seemed forced, as if it struggled to justify its own existence. Additionally, I was unaware that the film was a sequel to *A Simple Favor*, which likely contributed to a sense of confusion and disconnect. Without that context, certain elements of the story felt underdeveloped or meaningless, making it difficult to fully appreciate any intended continuity. Overall, apart from the picturesque cinematography, watching this movie felt like an unfortunate waste of time.

I loved the first movie and I didn't exactly have high expectations but, with a star-studded cast, I did expect more.

Tbh it was pretty bad in my opinion - extremely far-fetched, cheesy, and underwhelming. I fell asleep halfway through it because I found it difficult to pay attention and when I finished it later, it definitely got worse instead of better.

I won't post spoilers but I was super disappointed with the plot twists and the added backstory. The writers could have made this movie SO much better but, nope. Unfortunately it felt like I was watching a low budget, cheesy lifetime movie.
