- christinav6113. april 2026It’s OK, I like it 
- alexnoaholdmate5. april 2026Beetlejuice 2 (that's the title I'm going with) is... fine. It's just fine. If you're a big fan of the original, you'll find bits in it to make you chuckle. But it's simply not all that interesting, and the entire film feels like the answer to a question no one asked. As an example of the film's pointlessness: There's a scene, ripped off from the first film, where Beetlejuice takes over the cast's bodies and makes them sing and dance - only this time it's to MacArthur Park rather than to Harry Belafonte. It's probably the funniest moment in the film, and it's not a patch on its predecessor in the original. The plot, such as it is, is surprisingly boring for a film with such a pedigree. There's an underlying "Family is the most important thing!" sub-theme which feels tacky and at the same time underused - if you're going to go down that cliche'd road, at least make us feel something for the characters. But we don't. Not once. There's an entire subplot about Beetlejuice's ex-wife (what a waste of Monica Bellucci!) that is clearly only in there to fill in time, for it has absolutely no bearing on the greater plot at all. If all those scenes had been cut out, the film would have proceeded to the exact same denouement. They're worse than boring - they're unnecessary. The dialogue sounds like it was written by a high-schooler ("Wow! The afterlife is so random!" - yes, that's a direct quote). There's plenty of gross-out humour, if you like that sort of thing - but it manages only to be gross, never humorous. Michael Keaton does the best he can with the material he's given - of which there isn't much, oddly enough for a film in which he plays the title character we all came to see. The man probably has about 300 words in the entire movie. It's a film looking for a reason to exist. I hate to say it, because I know Tim Burton loves the characters - but it feels like a cynical cash grab and an attempt to exploit the nostalgia of those who remember the 80s. It's better, I suppose, than being bisected by a shark. But not by much.
- mikylace23. februar 2026the barely shadow of what it was originally
- mickerdoo14. februar 2026Not really into all the evil stuff or Burton in general, but I liked the design. The cast is insanely stacked.
- jackmeat4. desember 2024My quick rating - 6.8/10 Oh, I have a bad feeling about this...and was I WRONG. Sometimes, revisiting a beloved classic can feel like tempting fate, but this flick proves that some doors to the Afterlife are worth reopening. Picking up decades after the original, the film follows Lydia Deetz (Winona Ryder) and her teenage daughter, Astrid (Jenna Ortega), as they’re pulled back into the chaos of the Afterlife after Astrid inadvertently opens up that portal and Lydia has no choice but to summon the mischievous ghost with the most. This sequel strikes an impressive balance between honoring the original’s quirky charm and introducing fresh elements to the world of Winter River. Tim Burton’s signature gothic whimsy shines through, with expanded Afterlife world-building that feels both imaginative and true to the tone of the original. The balance of nostalgia and new material ensures longtime fans and newcomers alike will find plenty to enjoy. Michael Keaton reprises his role as Beetlejuice with unparalleled energy, slipping seamlessly back into the iconic role as if no time has passed. He brings the same chaotic charisma that made the original so memorable. Monica Bellucci as Delores adds a sultry, enigmatic layer to the Afterlife, while Willem Dafoe steals the show in his limited screen time with a performance that’s both hilarious and unsettling. Jenna Ortega is perfectly cast as Astrid, her performance brimming with the sardonic charm and relatability that fit naturally into the world of Beetlejuice. Winona Ryder’s return as Lydia brings emotional depth and continuity, bridging the gap between generations and grounding the film’s heart in the Deetz family’s struggles. The high-energy performances, inventive visuals, and clever callbacks to the original more than compensate. All of these elements make this a worthy sequel that captures the spirit of the original while breathing new life into the story. Fans of the first film will revel in the nostalgia, while new audiences will appreciate the film’s wit, charm, and vibrant imagination.
- Ty Leet14. september 2024A fun time that not only stays true, but expands, on the original - fast-paced and full of great performances. The juice is loose 🤙
- Callum1. januar 2026⭐⭐⭐⭐ – Beetlejuice Beetlejuice – Familiar ghosts, slightly thinner magic. So many of the characters return, but time has clearly moved on — and the film actually leans into that. The family has aged, the father’s death becomes part of the emotional and narrative weight, and there’s a sense that this world hasn’t been frozen in amber just because we’ve been away. It’s a smart choice, even if it changes the texture of the story. One absence is felt, though. With the actor who played Otho no longer with us, that particular brand of pretentious chaos is missing, and you do notice the gap. The film compensates by introducing new energy instead, most notably through a figure from Beetlejuice’s past. That dynamic brings a different flavour of menace, and I couldn’t help getting strong Sally-from-Nightmare Before Christmas vibes — which makes complete sense, given it’s all still Burton DNA at work. What worked best for me was how much of the original flavour was allowed back in. The desert snake, the running marriage gag, the familiar faces and rhythms — all the stuff that made the first film special is at least acknowledged, often lovingly recreated. And honestly, why wouldn’t it work again? That magic was the point. Does it fully recapture what made the original lightning in a bottle? Not quite. The weirdness is still there, the style is still strong, but the edges are a little softer this time. Still, it comes close enough to feel worthwhile rather than cynical. Definitely worth a watch — especially if you loved the first — just don’t expect it to completely out-haunt the original. 🍷 A second glass of the same dark cherry cordial — still sweet and strange, even if the first sip hit a little harder.
- CybrneticPlague10. desember 2025It was good, not quite as good as the original and the ending seemed rushed. But I enjoyed it
- Jill Platts9. desember 2025Genuinely good sequel to a classic.
- Joe G23. november 2025A complete mess. The film retreads jokes, scenes, and storylines, cramming them into an overcrowded structure where nothing is developed and everything feels rushed to make the runtime. Visually, it benefits from an updated version of Tim Burton’s style, but beyond that, it offers little of value. This is a clear money grab, but even by that standard, the lack of effort is striking. There is no cohesive story, just disconnected ideas stitched together without rhythm or purpose. The entire premise seems built around putting Michael Keaton back in makeup, and once that decision was made, no further thought followed. A wasted opportunity that mistakes nostalgia for storytelling and fan service for creativity.
- MeghannB6. februar 2025Great “watch on a plane” movie. This might be a bit controversial, but I enjoyed it more than the original. Struck a good balance of quirky, sentimental, and grotesque.
- Midlife Adventures7. mars 2025Eh… had a couple of moments.
- Stephen Spil20. november 2025What a disappointment. They just rushed too many story lines at the halfway point and left so much to be desired. You can tell this was just a cash grab for them.
- LordDeTracy15. februar 2025"Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" doesn’t quite live up to the hype as a sequel to the beloved original. While it clearly aims to recapture the quirky charm and dark humor that made the first film a classic, it often feels like it’s trying too hard. The humor, instead of feeling organic and effortlessly funny, comes across as forced and overdone. The magic and spontaneity that defined the original are largely missing, replaced by an over-reliance on nostalgia and spectacle. While there are a few enjoyable moments, the film ultimately struggles to justify its existence, leaving longtime fans wanting more.
- Jkrilin11. oktober 2024The film maintains the chaotic and fun spirit of the original, but with a modern twist that revitalizes the story for a new generation. The film continues to explore the strange world of the dead, this time delving into the rules of the afterlife and the new dynamics between the living and the ghosts. While the plot remains a dark comedy, it manages to balance moments of nostalgia with new visual and technological elements that impress without losing the handcrafted charm of the original. Michael Keaton returns as Beetlejuice, and his energy remains as vibrant and sarcastic as ever. Alongside him, new characters bring freshness and even wackier situations, which enriches the story without feeling like they're repeating what we've already seen in the '80s. The art direction and visual effects are a feast for the eyes, with a clever use of modern technology that still respects Tim Burton's gothic and eccentric style. In short, Beetlejuice is a sequel that feels like a reunion of old friends, with dark humor, bizarre moments, and a unique visual aesthetic that remains a delight for fans of the macabre but fun.
