Cruel Intentions 2

This one, like the teeny-bop remake of DANGEROUS LIAISONS, is populated by fragile, pasty teens whose sex scenes are vapid and unimpressive, unless you're an easily turned-on adolescent. Utterly cute in the worst sense of the word and, sadly, lacking any prurient interest.

Synopsis: A remake. That's all it is. Just a simple remake of the first one only with a different cast.

The Review: Pointless. It's a remake. The elements are all here. Sister wants to screw brother. Brother wants to screw someone else. Sister manipulates stereotype bimbo, who in a fit of originality, orgasms from riding a horse saddle, the only laugh and pretty much the only entertaining thing in this remake of the first "Cruel Intentions". Don't rent, if you've seen the first "Cruel Intentions", then you'll have already seen the second one.

This film demonstrates the woeful Hollywood obsession with pre/sequel production. It is rare that a follow up film equals or betters the original (Godfather Two and Aliens are notable exceptions).

The joy of Cruel Intentions was watching the interplay between the characters - how they came to be where they were was neither here nor there. Cruel 2 really is NOT required to explain how the protagonists became the shallow, bitching individuals they did.

Whereas as the original Cruel intentions was dark, savvy, razor edged and excellently presented by cast and crew.....this is not.

A few martinis too many at lunch (or maybe over a month or so) may have hatched this awkward, smutty and downright dull prequel, which shows none of the maturity of the first film.

Why did anyone bother? Avoid at all costs and treasure the original. There are far better things to do with your time.

This movie actually turned out to be pretty good. The characters were quite interesting as opposed to other teen characters that we normally see on Teen TV. Though this movie was more adult oriented. I thought the actors in this movie were much better than the first movie. This movie was funny and had lots of odd quirky humor that Krumble had thrown in. I enjoyed this movie and watched it along the lines as a soap with fun characters.

This prequel, sequel, whatever it is, to the first Cruel Intentions is absolutely rubbish and no where near as good as the first one. Some of the scenes from Cruel Intentions 2 are taken from Cruel Intentions and they're absolutely useless and sick. Their was a twist at the end of the film which was absolutely pathetic. And, the acting was VERY poor. I didn't enjoy this 'film' one bit. 1/10.
