Under Wraps 2

As a horror film enthusiast, I must admit, I fancy a well-executed spooky comedy. If you are anything like me, Under Wraps 2 is a film to watch. This film really gives viewers just the right balance of Halloween fright, mummy madness, gut-busting humor, and friendship feels. If eerie films, impromptu dance scenes and happy endings are your thing, don't deprive yourself of watching this scary, family-friendly fun film.

Chaperoned by a kooky and delightful friend, Buzzy (Melanie Brook), best friends Marshall (Malachi Barton), Gilbert (Christian J. Simon) and Amy (Sophia Hammons) prepare to attend the Halloween-inspired wedding of Amy's father (Carl Knowlton) and his adoring fiance (Anotion Cayonne). Marshall, Gilbert and Amy are soon met with unexpected chaos when they crack a mystery museum burglary. The mystery reveals that their best mummy friend, Harold (Phil Wright) and his doting mummy bride Rose (Rryla McIntosh) are in grave danger. A spine-chilling, evil mummy named Sobek (T. J. Storm) has been accidentally resurrected, by a naive museum guard, Larry (Jordan Conley). Sobek wants nothing more than to destroy Harold and run away with Rose and, with the help of a hypnotized Larry, he might just get away with it.

The director's creative genius can be witnessed from the beginning of this spooktacular production all the way through to the end. Director Alex Zamm really knows how to hook viewers in; his comedic timing with characters such as Larry and Beuller, the jeweler (Adam Wiley), give the film a light-hearted element. There are several times throughout the film that Zamm adds unanticipated twists which fit perfectly. For example, there is a scene when Harold and Rose order an astronomical amount of room service and then, end up in a synchronized dance battle at the town's Halloween fair. I will forever be a fan of Alex Zamm's ability to make scary films fun to watch. My favorite scene in Under Wraps 2 is the mummy dance scene. As a close second, there is a scene where a party of people experience a messy chocolate fountain mishap -- that is hilarious.

Subtly, diversity and inclusion are cleverly wrapped in the fiber of this film, which is overflowing with empowering messages. Under Wraps 2 reminds us of the power of friendship as these besties show us how real friends will go to any length to help one another, even when it means facing your deepest fears. It also reminds us that "love is love" and to never judge others, simply because they are different. You should be aware that there is an LGBTQ+ marriage and same-sex kissing scene.

Under Wraps 2 gets 5 out of 5 stars from me and I recommend it for ages 5 to 16, plus adults. This is a family fun movie that everyone can enjoy. Under Wraps 2 released on Disney Channel September 25 and will be released on Disney+ September 30, 2002.

It's one year later. Marshall (Malachi Barton), Gilbert (Christian J. Simon), and Amy (Sophia Hammons) are still best friends. Gilbert has been confronting his fears. Gilbert and Amy gave Harold's girlfriend the name Rose. A runaway meatball awakens an evil mummy. Buzzy drive the kids to Amy's fathers' wedding.

There is a bit of low-grade amateurish charm to the first movie. I'm not saying that it's all gone. The charm of discovering Harold is gone, but the kids are still the kids. The marginal case for the first one is downgraded for this one. It might still be fine for little kids which is important.

The 2021 family movie "Under Wraps" was a good family movie, and thus when I had the opportunity to sit down and watch the 2022 sequel "Under Wraps 2", I did so with my family.

And writer Josh A. Cagan definitely delivered a script and storyline that was a worthy successor to the 2021 movie. So if you enjoyed the first movie, then you most certainly will also enjoy this sequel. It was a story that had something for just about everyone in the audience; adventure, fantasy, action, light horror (it is a Halloween movie after all), and so forth.

The acting performances in "Under Wraps 2" was good, and they had a good cast ensemble put together for the movie. The actors and actresses put on good performances to bring their characters and roles to life on the screen.

Visually then "Under Wraps 2" is good. Take into consideration that it is a Disney family movie, but even so, then I will say that the special effects in the movie are good. It adds to the atmosphere of the movie and it looks good on the screen.

If you enjoyed the first "Under Wraps" movie from 2021, then you have to sit down and watch director Alex Zamm's 2022 movie "Under Wraps 2".

My rating of "Under Wraps 2" lands on a six out of ten stars.

This movie is amazing and I don't understand why people is giving bad reviews for this movie!

One of my favorite actors is in this movie and he is the best actor ever compared to other's actors and I would highly recommend watching this movie on iTunes Store.

I hope there will be third movie with a tv series that's will be available on iTunes Store. Also this is way better than Disney zombies!

Huge Thank you for creating this movie (Under Wrap 2 and the Under Wrap movie).

This movie is great for anyone who wants to celebrate Halloween and who really likes Halloween with trick and treat depending if.

This movie is the raw manifestation of what happens when you make film makers fulfill a certain set of criteria to get a budget. There isn't a single piece of appeasing artistic flare (maybe the make up work, to be fair). The clean, bright, pre-school-classroom colour pallette of this movie is Disney all over. Every camera angle and edit appears as though A. I churned it out with a few prompts...that goes for the script too. It's the most generic, simple and unimaginative piece of something I've ever seen. The music is forgetful, the acting is mediocre and overall 10 out of 10 for cringe. Please, keep Harold in his casket, for his sake and ours.
