A marginal improvement over the first, but still not saying much. The characters are slightly less annoying than the ones in the first film, and they give you more insight this time around with the group that is behind the killings. Some ofA marginal improvement over the first, but still not saying much. The characters are slightly less annoying than the ones in the first film, and they give you more insight this time around with the group that is behind the killings. Some of the scenes of violence with torture felt less disturbing than the first one. They certainly toned down the goriness, sometimes opting to do the violence off camera. They also toned down the sex and nudity. There was very little suspense or buildup. The ending involved some instant character transformations that made zero sense, and I thought some scenes had been cut from the movie. Very jarring, and confusing. It felt like they were trying too hard to have a Saw like twist at the end, but it was just poorly done. Seemed very rushed. Very little to no character development, and a pretty forgettable gore flick.… Expand

Hostel II is a horror movie that bases itself on blood, gore and nudity and it fails on every level. It's a depressing mess and this film is a torture to watch and a horrible viewing experience.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If I had to describe this movie in one word, it would be "trashy". Part 2 is almost exactly the same as the first movie, except the three guys are replaced with three women (one is hot off the set of the Princess Diaries), and the gore is so much more gratuitous. There is absolutely no tension or suspense in the movie, mostly because we've seen it all before in the first one. I guess what we're supposed to be scared of is a woman taking a bath in blood and a man getting his penis ripped off. The "protagonists" are so boring that I seriously thought that there were only two girls and not four, and the acting is absolutely horrendous. Where the first one had legitimate suspense and a sort of Wes Craven type vibe to it, this one is just... trashy. "Hostel: Part II" is possibly one of the worst movies I have ever seen.… Expand

In short, a repetition of the first film. All I can say is, those who enjoyed the first film, or those who are hardcore horror fans, will probably find the film alright. I, on the other hand, did not.

A worthless and totally uninteresting sequel to a film that shouldn't exist in the first place. Lumbering, tension-free, insomnia-curing monkey poop from start to end. Eli Roth is completely without a shred of talent, skill or decency.

Another disapointing horror film sequel and I expected a lot better then this trash from Eli Roth. The acting was below average at best and the effects ,will good, were no where near as graphic as the first film.

I conclude that indeed Hostel is a failure in terms of history, after the failure of the first in the explanations he hoped that in the second were given some explanations about how things work / happen. But however and much to the dismay of all who saw the first explanations were not given any more. At the end of the two there is only a supposed sequel to a third movie, which leaves us waiting for more, but unfortunately I know in advance that there won't be a third movie, which makes both Hostel and Hostel 2 a big flop film.… Expand

So bad, I can't even bothered wasting my time to slag this movie off. Metacrtic really needs to introduce minus scoring to accommodate nonsense like this.

Its story is almost irrelevant, its caracters are empty and repelling and its attempt to live up to the original is an utter failure

Beyond terrible. Tarantino and Roth can go to Hades. If you gave this film more than a 2, then you should not reproduce or interact in society in anyway.

"Hostel: Part II" is truly a horror film; that Eli Roth could manage to make filthier garbage than the first "Hostel" is genuinely frightening. Where the first film adhered to at least a few (not many) concepts of logic and structure, the "Hostel: Part II" is truly a horror film; that Eli Roth could manage to make filthier garbage than the first "Hostel" is genuinely frightening. Where the first film adhered to at least a few (not many) concepts of logic and structure, the sequel devolves into a putrid frenzy of child murder, flesh-eating animals, and endless dismemberment. Adding to the ludicrous nonsense is the fact that the film depicts children as monstrous maniacs who apparently enjoy murder and severed heads. "Hostel: Part II" is easily one of the worst films ever created.… Expand

I only went in to see this movie because I had to kill some time while my car was getting worked on. The only other movies were kids movies. I sat there thinking "first of all, what type of person actually WANTS to see nude women tortured I only went in to see this movie because I had to kill some time while my car was getting worked on. The only other movies were kids movies. I sat there thinking "first of all, what type of person actually WANTS to see nude women tortured and murdered, and then, what type of sick twist WANTS to actually MAKE a movie where nude women get tortured and murdered?". Worst of all, Eli Roth the "director" actually creates a scene where a man shoots a small boy in the head. NOT because ihe makes us want to hate the killer, [Roth seems to admire him] but because he simply wants the movie goer to watch a small boy get shot in the head. Roth is Pathetic and a hack of a director.… Expand

I enjoyed the first movie but this movie was miserable. It was hyped up as being more sadistic, violent, and gory than the previous film and I don't think it was. I'm not sure if it was the hype that killed this movie or what. But I enjoyed the first movie but this movie was miserable. It was hyped up as being more sadistic, violent, and gory than the previous film and I don't think it was. I'm not sure if it was the hype that killed this movie or what. But it seemed like they threw a batch of new characters on the screen and let them just float through a movie which was horribly acted, un-suspenseful or scary. It was mostly laughable and the effect/make-up once again were not anything special. As for "the greatest ending ever" I felt like it was a thrown together ending because Roth couldn't figure out any one other way to get himself out of the mess he was in and he thought it'd be funny, which it wasn't. But I will say the ending was very Eli Roth.… Expand

The problem is that we have seen all of this before, not only in the first hostel film, but in many many films before this. Eli is so unoriginal and his characters are so poorly developed that you dont care for a split second when they are murdered. Is this going to go on and on and on? Hollywood listen up...MAKE A SCARY MOVIE!! we got it already with saw, hills have eyes and wolf creek all examples of people torturing each other. clip,snip,cut, stab...boring! give us some movies with suspense and where we jump out of our seats and scream. How many more movies like this are we going to have to suffer through? Hostel part II : been there, done that YAWN… Expand
