Leprechaun Returns

This movie was not bad at all. Obviously, don't watch it if your expecting to see an Oscar worthy film but if you are a fan of horror and cool ways to see people die, then give it a go! The director did a great job in taking this movie back to the original in the way of comedy. You won't get scared watching this film but you have a laugh or two. The return of Ozzy was really cool and they did a great job trying in the original film. I think what I enjoyed the most about this movie was the Leprechaun. Trying to fill the shoes of someone like Warwick Davis is pretty darn impossible but Pondo did an excellent job! He was hilarious and brutal just like the leprechaun should be.

This film is great for what it is: a comedic sequel to the original movie. A big strength lies in that it is very self-aware and never takes itself too seriously. The corny jokes are funny, as are the wee one's evil antics. The characters are mostly one-dimensional slasher archetypes, but for the most part they add to the comedy. The acting is not bad at all with comedic timing being generally pretty good and the lines delivered well. The deaths are absurd, and so far beyond the realm of physical possibility--even while suspending disbelief--you can't help but laugh. Again, it doesn't take itself seriously and doesn't expect the viewer to either. Given this, the writing and direction are pretty great. The leprechaun's makeup is on point, and the special effects are surprisingly good.

Genuinely funny, self-aware, and more or less Oscar-worthy compared to what I have seen of other Syfy Originals.

Not surprisingly at all, this movie is really, really cheesy. They pretty much all are. This film takes the Leprechaun franchise and introduces it to modern society with every cliche you'd imagine. Smartphones, drones, selfies, and Prius jokes are the only things that are really new here. Making a return are the dumb limericks, bad jokes, cheesy effects, over-the-top kills, and subpar acting.

Overall, if you want to turn your mind off and watch a senseless movie (and who doesn't every once in awhile) you could do much worse. But then again, you could also do much better. If you're a fan of the original movies, you'll probably find some value to it. If you were not a big fan of them, this one won't change your mind at all. Very mediocre and low budget. 5/10

This film takes place 25 years after the event of the first film n therefore this is the original sequel. It also explains the whereabouts of the gold n how the Leprechaun returns. Makes more sense than all the other sequels. A group of students decide to spend their summer vacation turning the house (into some eco friendly project) of Tory Reding (Jennifer Aniston), now dead. One of the student is Tory's daughter. The small boy, his elder brother n Tory's father ain't present in this sequel but we hav Ozzie (the guy who swallowed the coin in the original). The sequels never explained what happened to him n the missing coin.

This is no doubt a worthy sequel n much much better than the awful 2014's Leprechaun Origins. The guy who played the leprechaun in this film did a nice job but Warwick Davis will always be remembered.

The rhyming jokes r back, the kills r gory n once again the film is set in proper daylight, shaky stuff n darkly shot scenes r avoided. Ther is one frontal/coronal plane body slicing scene, two decapitations, one decapitation with head smashing, tap rod mouth blasting scene, etc.

I liked how this one was a direct sequel to the original. It was a blast and the deaths scenes were awesome!! The Syfy channel did an awesome job with this one and the guy who played the leprechaun was pretty good! I definitely had fun with it!
