"Smile 2" is a good film that, without being a masterpiece, manages to tell a solid story of horror and suspense. Its predecessor "Smile" is an overrated film, but this sequel improves in many aspects of the script.
The makeup effects are realistic and gory
The cinematography is good, especially in those pop music atmosphere scenes. The performances are good, highlighting Naomi Scott and Kyle Gallner.
The soundtrack is gloomy and accentuates the suspense in several scenes
Director Parker Finn demonstrates maturity in his cinematic style, obviously surpassing himself. It is worth mentioning that the scene of Sky's apartment being invaded by characters with devilish smiles will become an iconic scene in horror movies.
