This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Excellent prequel where a now 25 year old Isabelle Fuhrman plays a 30 year old passing as a 10 year old and it totally doesn't look weird at all.… Expand

First movie was better, but this movie is very good too. Isabelle Fuhrman is good, but Julia Stiles like a mother is better. I want more..

Everything I really could ask for. As a fan of the original since its release in 2009, it was fun to see Esther back in action, and they dial up the camp to 11.

A great way to spend a muggy summer afternoon, especially for horror film buffs. The cast was excellent and completely believable. Julie Styles was particularly good, along with the young girl who played Esther. Kudos to all of them, andA great way to spend a muggy summer afternoon, especially for horror film buffs.

The original title of this film was Esther, which is more than fitting when you consider that this story would focus even more on that character than the distant 2009 film, but even without being able to ignore the brutal time gap between theThe original title of this film was Esther, which is more than fitting when you consider that this story would focus even more on that character than the distant 2009 film, but even without being able to ignore the brutal time gap between the two films, also that this is a prequel, and that Isabelle Fuhrman's physique is simply not the same - even her accent sounds very different - the real question is what is the relevance of this film? And since the answer on my part is none, I can only say watch it with many reservations.… Expand

Whoever decided this film needed an absolutely hideous and nauseating lens filter or whatever they were doing should be fired. The plot twist gives the movie at least some semblance of life but the plot and pacing of it all is bogged down inWhoever decided this film needed an absolutely hideous and nauseating lens filter or whatever they were doing should be fired. The plot twist gives the movie at least some semblance of life but the plot and pacing of it all is bogged down in unexciting and unbelievable character and plot contrivances.… Expand

La primera película me pareció buena en su momento, pero envejeció de manera fatal que al momento de estrenarse la presente precuela pensaba que sería una perdida de tiempo y que su existencia era innecesaria. Me tuve que tragar mis palabrasLa primera película me pareció buena en su momento, pero envejeció de manera fatal que al momento de estrenarse la presente precuela pensaba que sería una perdida de tiempo y que su existencia era innecesaria. Me tuve que tragar mis palabras porque me encantó y la disfruté más que la primera. Aquí Esther se roba cada segundo en pantalla y realmente te pones de su lado viendo a la gente con la que tiene que lidiar, de hecho ese inesperado Plot Twist le da el toque distintivo viendo que muy en el fondo todos son villanos, excepto Allen, quien es el único ser querido y bondadoso, para su mala suerte el poder del guión es inmenso y se ve en la obligación de morder el polvo.

Lo único malo es el maquillaje y efectos especiales, si bien hicieron un buen trabajo con Isabelle Fuhrman, es imposible tragarse eso de que tiene 10 años.… Expand
