Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Ben Hattrell " Promise draining away with duration. A little romance with too much complication. Not enough anecdotal inspiration. Film finds itself in a mediocre rank location."Sisterhood of the traveling pants 2 (6.5/10)Setting the sceneImagine you are a bee ... Out on the hunt for nectar. You don't find a sweetly scented rose but end up settling on a daisy. The daisy is fine. It still provides the nectar you want but you wonder. You wonder if your fellow bees have found a flower which is more salubrious. This is the theme of the scene setting. The not knowing of characters lives and how they are unfolding. This is a capture. Gets you wanting to know more and acts as an effective hook.Main body The beginning shows real promise with many dramatic emotional scenes with 2 of the main characters. You almost expect some relationship development but nothing feels long term. It feels like nothing is real or deep enough to provide a real romance vibe. Perhaps the art of the film is it's action and progression but for this, all the scenes and characters should be as emphatic as each other. This just isn't the case. The second film learns from the issue of focusing too heavily on the main character in the first. With this though it struggles to make each small excerpt from every character dramatic. The greatest drama begins with a combination of characters. One is left out from any really emotional or engaging events. Things get a little tedious later on since the drama is siphoned just towards the main character. Only a short snippet for the left out character is provided to try to reengage or wake up the viewer. This seems a bit desperate and feeble however and some stones are left unnecessarily unturned.The main body therefore seems to fade away and could benefit from a little truncation or just quality time focusing on relationships. That said the stories do have variety but just aren't on the whole that entertaining. Music Quieter music as well as increased fading was used especially well for sadness and turmoil. This enhanced the authenticity for just one of the characters though. Again this was far more effective at the early part of the main film body but by the end was not noticeable unfortunately. In general the music was calming and relaxing which suits the films friendship vibes although perhaps needs changing up where things are threatened or more exciting. Ending The ending is too much like the first which is a shame. There could have been a twist in the tale or the significance of the pants revealed which would have been nice. Summary A varied combination lacking seasoning. Not fully reasoned and seasoned by any stretch although some good relationship scenes, location variety and number of life snippets just about get you to the end of the film. No better or worse I feel than the original but the film appears to suffer from less surprise after viewing the first.

hydebee-2 first let me say this is one of the worst sequels of all time!!!! when you finish watching this garbage you think where has the last 2 hours of my life gone, answer is down the crapper.while it is not politically correct but i am gone to say what i feel in this review, why were all the girls unable to date a white American guy? or are these the little rich b---es that can fly to Europe at a drop of the hat because mom and dad have so much money and yes they find their love with everyone but a normal American kid, it seems Hollywood is telling us it is all right to date anyone you want, and yes that is true but give me a freaking break ,i am tired of the interracial couples that seem to pound us, i guess in the next one we will find out one is a lesbian are there no young white American actors for them to date ? the real fact 95% or more people are attracted to people of their same race ethnic back ground so this show goes well beyond the norms so don't force that crap down my throat let me make up my own mind!!!,this is one of the worst shows i ever had the pleasure to sit thru the plot is as bad as ever the dialogue delivered by the young ladies is so crappy and so telegraphed, the scene where all 4 girls are in the room talking it is a joke, no one would ever say the words in that context , what a joke, what a waste of talent , i saw America in a movie about a young kid trying to get home to his family she played a smuggler and was great at that part , amber a delight sort of offbeat and i loved her in Joan of Arcadia and gh but again they wasted her talents in this garbage the other 2 girls were pathetic yes bad really bad!!! well pardon me while i go puke from watching this garbage!!!

MLDinTN I didn't think this movie was very interesting. I didn't care for the story lines of any of the girls. They don't do much. If I had to pick one, I guess Lena's was the best since she had the drama of her guy dumping her and getting married. Plus she started dating the nude male model in her art class. Bridget goes to Turkey and makes up with her grandma. Carmen gets cast in a play, and is rather snippy with her friend that invited her to Vermont. I thought she was sort of b*tchy throughout the film. Tibby has a pregnancy scare, breaks up with her guy and gets back together.FINAL VERDICT: Poor script. Not fun. I can't believe many people would like this.

Saku_Tatsuya I honestly wish that I had seen the "Dark Knight" or at least "Step Brothers"; seriously if you're going to the movies then see those films or the "Star Wars Clone Wars". But avoid this one at all costs; it will bore you to death.What's the plot? Unlike the first one, there was none worth mentioning in this one. Except for basically that Leena is bitchy about Kratos (I don't care if I spelled his name wrong; I hate the film too much to care) getting married to someone else, Carmen gets a major role in a play and her mother is pregnant, Bridgette goes to an archaelogical (sp?) trip then goes home to her grandmother then Tibby is being her usual bitchy self but this time she is worried about being pregnant with Brian's baby; and guess what? As predictable as it is, it turns out she isn't. But she ends up leaving Brian in anyway because "she doesn't want to talk to him" or some bullshit like that. But she ends up with him in the end; as I predicted.The characters are bland and annoying. Now in the first one, I liked Tibby. But in this movie she got really annoying; along with everyone else. The books just bored me to the core; but the movie was worse.I'm happy that I didn't spend my money on this trash; but I feel sorry for my mom because she did thinking that I would like because my stupid little sister does.Right now I really wish that I had a say in what movie to see; I would've automatically went for 'Step Brothers' because it's a comedy and I prefer comedies over chick flicks any day.At all costs, avoid this film!
