Tales from the Hood 2

Tales from the Hood the original will always be one of my favorite movies....but what I just watched doesn't even deserve the same title. I didn't even know a part 2 was made. I just happened to catch a preview on Netflix and couldn't wait to watch it. Why would you make us wait all these years for a part 2 and this is what you give us??? It almost seemed like a comedy... where part 1 was full of excitement and horror. I struggled to watch it. My fiancé who didn't see the first one gave up on it before it ended. Come on man!!!

Why, just why. They should have left well enough alone. I personally enjoyed the original one. This. I have no words.

If you've ever seen the first Tales from the Hood, then you know this movie is a disgrace. Like come on!! Half of the movie was filled with "Nigger" being said. The stories didn't even make sense. I don't know who gave the green light on this production, but they really need to re-evaluate their job. There was one cameo, pity, even he seemed to not really care for the role. I'm completely and utterly disappointed in this movie. Oh, and the "Hood" aspect of the movie is more so...... I can't even think of a word to say for that. That's how HORRIBLE it is. Like, talk about gentrification. That's the word. That's the "HOOD" aspect of it. Gentrification. Another good movie ruined by being touched by the wrong hands.

It's hard to imagine this is made by the same people who brought us the original, because it feels like this a poor cash in made by people who didn't understand the original at all. Attempts at humor only comes across as sad and cheesy. They're still tackling important social issues like the original did, but it's nowhere near as thoughtful and smart.

I watched the trailer and that should have been enough for me to to say don't bother with the film but then I thought, no, you must give it a go. Really should have gone with my first instinct.

Weak and in some parts over-acted. Keith David narrating the stories is a little over the top with his acting and the fake laugh? The stories could have been put together a little better though I must admit "The Seance" was good and by far the best.

I really don't know what's happening with films lately. So much rubbish is coming out and the ideas are not there. Predictability, cheap thrills etc.

No wonder I keep going back to foreign films.
