    SEEMS LEGIT

    Just watch the trailer on this page if you want to see the level of quality you can expect with this movie.

    Every single one of these 9-10 reviews are shill accounts that made them all in the same week of May, 2021. And EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM has done nothing (or almost nothing) but reviews for the exact same handful of movies for this same trashy knockoff bootleg movie company.

    Don't be a sucker, people.

    The sequel we never had.

    This is sequel very well done, with lots of pratical effects trough, most people don´t realize that this is a fan film, because of all the people and budget putted into this, i saw an interview with the director on a you tube channel, were he explains, the love he has for the franchise.

    For me it was a pleasant surprise what i´ve got here, the rating of this movie, should be around 7, not 6.0.

    Good sequel, to an incredible movie...

    This movie is scary, well directed, well acted and a very worthy sequel to the 1982 sci-fi horror classic.

    This movie is such a relief to see as anything with The Thing tag on it.

    It keeps the same tone and fear of the first film and makes up for the loss of what the first film left out, the mystery of the alien ship.

    The CGI, on the other hand, could have been better, but i don´t know if they had the money to do it.

    A good movie.

    I was not expecting to like this film at all. And actually I quite enjoyed it. As I say, it's not really my type of thing, as I'm not a horror fan, but i remember watching the original on tv, and liked it, so I was looking forward to see this one.

    The story you could say that it's a bit typical with few twists or complicated plots and it was easy to see what would happen, you know who isn't going to die and so on.

    The visual effects are amazing and quite frightening, actually.

    I´d rate it a 7.

    A good time with the thing.

    Sequels are usually a disappointment as they try to raise the bar and fail. This movie doesn't attempt that. It didn't fall into the trap of adding boring clichés or breaking the suspense with cheap laughs. It didn't try to change the formula too much and that's a good thing. Why re-invent the wheel. Just make another interesting one.

    I definitely enjoyed it and I would suggest my friends to go watch it. That's just my sincerest opinion about this movie.
