Child's Play 2 has a quicker pace and more style than the previous film and it barely gives you time to contemplate just how ludicrous this concept really is. It has equally strong performances as the original with Christine Elise and Alex Vincent bringing lots of life to their tormented foster kids on the run from Chucky, the murderous doll who wants to transfer his soul into a child's body.
It doesn't have a lot of time for character drama, but it makes an effort in trying to create interesting and believable characters who make rational choices instead of following every strange noise they hear in the middle of the night. Plus, there's an excellent sense of dark humor throughout that keeps things fun.

An unrealistic story of a serial killer possessing the doll of a young boy is grounded by a strong script, stellar direction by Tom Holland, and great performances from Catherine Hicks and Chris Sarandon.
Hicks plays a struggling single mother who finds a doll her son wants for his birthday for a good bargain. Unfortunately, the doll comes with a few side effects. Namely, it loves to kill ever since the soul of a serial killer was transferred into its body and, now, it's going around killing everyone and blaming Hicks' young son for it.
Sarandon is equally impressive as the cop on the case who has a hard time believing Hicks and her son at first.

Lonely Adele moves in with her agoraphobic aunt to take care of her and get some money for her family and meets a free-spirited peer who leads her down a dark path.
Those uninterested in slow paced character studies would be wise to swipe Sweet, Sweet Lonely Girl off their watch list immediately. Even those who enjoy such films might find parts of the journey interesting even when the destination isn't much to write home about. Performances are mostly decent to fairly good and the film is beautifully shot, evoking a 70's/early 80's mood right from the start. There are moments when the film could sit comfortably alongside the likes of Let's Scare Jessica To Death, The Nesting, or even the more recent House of the Devil. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to know how to end in a satisfying fashion and all that great mood and build up feels like it was all for naught.
