Mirrors 2

Mystery/metaphysical horror film. It is an independent story from the first and unfortunately does not give clear explanations regarding the ending of the first movie. The main element, however, remains the mirrors and in particular the mirrors from the old burnt mall of the first film. According to some beliefs, after a violent death the soul can be trapped in a mirror in search of redemption. This in part could explain the ending of the first movie. Unlike the element of possession that the first one had, the second film is limited only to reflections and deaths. Overall, it is interesting and has good acting and script, but it is much less intense than the first, and at a much slower pace and focuses more on mystery than terror. It also has some unnecessary gore/splatter and nudity elements that were absent from the first. It's significantly below the first one and since it's not a sequel, you can skip it. Still worth a watch, but only for once.

"Mirrors 2" is a Horror movie in which we watch a young man who experiences strange, horrifying occurrences after moving into a new apartment with a dark past.

Since I had already watched the first movie I knew what I was about to watch and I had some expectations. Unfortunately, it didn't have the same suspense and intensity as the first movie. In addition to this, the tension was inconsistent, with several scenes lacking the chilling atmosphere that made "Mirrors" effective. The interpretation of Nick Stahl who played as Max Matheson was good bu not that good to save this movie. The story suffered from predictability, relying too heavily on familiar horror tropes without offering much innovation. To sum up, I have to say that "Mirrors 2" is a serviceable horror sequel and nothing more so, I advise you if you have already watched the first movie to be prepared for this one because you might be disappointed.

I really dug this film. It is a film that is not for the squeamish Im telling you. The movie stars Nick Stahl who will probably best be remembered as the second John Conner in Terminator 3, or the "Yellow Bastard" Roark Jr. from Sin City. This is a intense little horror thriller. That feeds on suspense and the viewers ...empathy. With its situational awkwardness and bloody gory scenes. It is under the radar because its a straight to video release. I actually think it is a far superior movie then the first film. A better story and less money behind it. I truly believe this film is a hidden gem. Less can be more. Sometimes independent films are better then... mainstream releases because every dollar counts and that they need to be used wisely. What is more important to a mature audience story or mainstream actors and special effects.

"Mirrors 2" isn't exactly in the same league as its predecessor. Unlike the Kiefer Sutherland story, there's more or less no suspense. Not because its predictable (which it isn't), but simply because it's a sequel. Actually, this isn't a sequel. It's a rehash of the first one, except there's no mystery this time. I found this "sequel" fairly enjoyable, and I recommend to anyone not expecting too much out of it. Compared to the previous story, this one is a pale imitation, which is easy to see why it went straight to DVD. A worthy rental, but it's not worth spending 20 some dollars on.

**1/2 out of ****

I was disappointed with Mirrors (2008) , the trailer made it look a lot more creepy then it was, that movie did have one or two creepy scenes and the acting was great for that movie and they had one really good death in that movie, i gave that movie an 5 out of 10 and I am going to give the same to Mirrors 2.

This is a stand alone movie there is no connection to the first movie at all as they basically repeated the formula from the first movie but added different plot.

What l liked about this movie, is that it did have some really good creative kills in this movie , this movie is more Bloody/Gory then the first however it not as creepy as the first and its not scary at all.

The acting was not great at all but just Okay, they could done much,much,much better with the acting.

I will watch this movie again but i won't be buying the movie on DVD. it's worth a rental at least.
