Pros:

  • Tim Burton Charm
    • manic and the whimsical horror like lighting and set design of the previous
  • Majority of the Original cast is back
    • Still great performances from them
  • Expanded the story of Beetlejuice
  • Parts of the plot was really interesting
  • some parts of the gross out humor are stunning visually but humor wise it was not good

Cons:

  • The Movie was bloated
  • it some how took it sweet time to introduce all of the characters
  • There is bloat on which character to focus on
    • problem of the 3 layer cake story telling
    • Monica Belluci’s character was wasted and not super pursuing beetlejuice
    • they focus on the manhunt story on the wrong characters
  • the antagonists theme was wasted on transformation using copyrighted music of the Bee Gees rather than using their composer Danny Elfman track
  • it suppose to be a comedy but it does not generated laughter to me so the comedy is somewhat weak
  • they looney tuned the secondary antagonists without any good pay off. also it was bull rushed a bit
  • Secondary characters where shunted rather having a nice ending in the story
  • not properly explaining some of the rules of the book “how to living dead” to make sense of the story
  • Do you like musicals? The movie delayed itself with a bloated musical that made me cringe
    • it is not peak musical comedy
    • it felt like padding
  • The ending felt weak

Final Verdict: LOW MATINEE


Synopsis:

After a family tragedy, three generations of the Deetz family return home to Winter River. Still haunted by Beetlejuice, Lydia's life is turned upside down when her teenage daughter, Astrid, accidentally opens the portal to the Afterlife.
