Critic Reviews
Jack Bender's direction, with the help of a driving score by Cory Lerios and John D'Andrea, manages to keep the level of suspense high even in the film's least convincing moments. [03 Sep 1991, p.5C]
Mancini's script, here as before, never rises above simple sadistic button-pushing. [30 Aug 1991, p.F13]
There's only so much a director can do to dress up a sequel as ill-conceived and impoverished as this one. [30 Aug 1991, p.24]
Though this sequel is not nearly as violent as Child's Play 2, it's every bit as vulgar and preposterous, funny despite itself and vicious, too. It is, in short, of interest only to those too young to see it. [31 Aug 1991, p.E4]
Screenwriter Don Mancini, who created Chucky, has decided to rely on the same formulae from the earlier pictures. It doesn't give Jack Bender -- who directed TV's wonderful The Dream of Oz last year -- much of a chance to prove himself with his first feature. [30 Aug 1991, p.F3]
Chuck rhymes with bucks - the only possible reason to revive this poor excuse for a horror villain in Child's Play 3. [03 Sep 1991, p.5D]
