Monster High 2

This movie is phenomenal! It has such great storytelling and it was easy to digest aswell. Monster high means a lot to me and this movie did the entire brand justice. Especially after all the negative comments and reviews about generation 3. I loved watching it with my friend. The new songs is amazing and the visuals and acting has improved SO much in this movie! I won't spoil much but I was crying so hard halfway through the movie. This one is better than the first in so many ways. If you're having doubts after the first movie I really do suggest watching the second! It truly steps up from the first!

Monster High 2 is an impressive film that takes audiences into an immersive experience within this world of monsters. It has fantastic special effects and characters that left me on the edge of my seat.

Monster High 2 is the sequel to Monster High in which Clawdeen Wolf (Miia Harris) is a half werewolf, half human that is running for prefect of Monster High against the new student Toralei (Salena Qureshi). Toralei ends up getting magic banded at Monster high so Draculaura (Nayah Damasen) runs off with a boy who promises that he can reunite vampires and humans as fellow witches. From there the chaos of this movie continues to unfold.

One of my all-time favorite parts of this film is the choreography. It's all very fun to watch and also believable and makes sense within the context of the storyline. The vocals, combined with the choreography, make it even better. Two of my favorite songs from the film, for both vocals and choreography, are "Reason We've Got Magic" and "You Don't Know." They both add so much to the story and are very engaging to watch. Definitely keep a look out for those in the movie. Something else I love is the costumes and sets. The whole show is set at the mythical school of Monster High and thus, they must have very elaborate costumes and sets in order to bring this school to life - the movie really pulls that through. Toralei and Draculaura have some of the coolest costumes in the film. Finally, the characters are terrific; each character is so well fleshed out and their personalities add so much to the film.

The message of this film is you don't have to change who you are for anyone else. Stay true to yourself always.

I give Monster High 3.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 12 to 18, plus adults. You can watch this film now on DVD and Paramount+. By Avalon N., KIDS FIRST!

It was right at 12 months ago that I watched 'Monster High", where Clawdeen, half human and half monster, longed to get into the school where humans were not allowed. With some help she was able to get in and prove herself worthy.

This one, "2", is a year later and was filmed about a year later, so all the returning cast members are of course a year older. The story begins as the new school year is starting.

A main theme is the choosing of a new student prefect and in competition are Clawdeen and a new student. They don't get along well at all and the friends of Clawdeen have to be inventive to keep her in the race.

There are a couple of sub-plots and the movie is nothing but a fluff of a movie to kill time. As with the first one there is a message of learning to accept those with differences.

This is a musical and for me, a musician, the most enjoyable parts of the movie. None of the singers are outstanding but all are passable. It sounded to my ears that some of the singing was autotuned. But they are high energy and fun.

By all measures a quickly forgettable movie but still entertaining if you are in the mood.

At home on DVD from my public library.

I really like the first live action movie of Monster High the movie last year I enjoyed it so much until monster high 2 came out so good until toralei stripe came in the movie i mean like look at her she is so DEAD gorgeous!! Monster High series of 2022 is fun it wasn't bad either I really enjoyed it!! Nickelodeon of Monster High 2 is so good I hope I will see monster high 3 next year!! They was making songs like; "My heart goes boom boom boom", and, "You don't know". This director makes great movies!! Great acting and singing!! I really like when torelai looks like that with the makeup and stuff!! Bye ghouls!!

IN A NUTSHELL: Hi, ghouls! This a family-friendly movie for the kids to get in the "safe" spirit of Halloween. Our favorite monsters from the first Monster High are back, entering their Sophomore year in school with colorful costumes, monster puns, musical numbers, and a new villain and threat to the world.

The film was directed by Todd Holland, who also co-wrote it with Matt Eddy and Billy Eddy.

THINGS I LIKED: If you haven't seen the first movie, you'll be caught up to speed within the first few minutes.

I love that it's a musical. The songs are catchy, performed by talented teens.

The monster costumes and characters are well defined and entertaining.

The choreography is cute.

There's a twist. Ooooooh!

The talented cast includes Miia Harris, Nayah Damasen, Ceci Balagot, Salena Qureshi, Case Walker, Marci T. House, Jy Prishkulnik, and more!

Rather than just being singing monsters, it was fun to see many of them use their special powers.

Keep watching during the final rolling credits to see some behind-the-scenes footage.

If you enjoy this cute franchise, you'll be happy to know the film ends with a cliffhanger, alluding to ANOTHER sequel.

THINGS I DIDN'T LIKE: If you don't like puns, beware.

It's very goofy.

Because more time was spent on character development in the first movie, we don't learn much about the various monsters in this one.

TIPS FOR PARENTS: Lots of farting and belching Some violence One of the characters is played by a Trans/non-binary actor.

Some French is spoken without subtitles.

Parents will approve of all the lessons taught.
