Protraph Lack of good storyline.

Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Michelle Ridley The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

Vivekmaru45 It seems obvious these reviewers are biased and haven't seen the film before they dare to criticize it. The story continues from The Hidden 1987 film. The alien criminal from the first movie is dead, but he left a few eggs which are hatching now. The good alien (Lloyd Gallagher), who still inhabits Tom Beck's Michael Welden body, has been waiting just in case this happened. Unfortunately, his presence in the body has taken a terrible toll on it, draining it of life energy. Additionally relations with Beck's daughter Juliet (Kate Hodge) (now a cop) have deteriorated (possibly due to his bizarre behavior caused by the alien inhabiting inside his father). But when the killing starts again, they will need to work together to stop the new generation of aliens.Seth Pinsker directs this film competently. The actors do their jobs well. The script which is also written by both Jim Kouf and Seth Pinsker is well done. The background music score is also good.All in all: a worth addition and excellent sequel. Buy both The Hidden and The Hidden 2 for your collection.

Logic404 Why? The first film I gave an 8 but this movie is just appalling. Using footage from the original - stupid. It just shows how bad the rest of the film is. Acting goes from completely dismal to barely OK. The effects (while there is more than the first) are mostly cheesy and crappy.This film is one of the worst sequels I've ever seen. Nothing new, nothing unique, nothing is what it all amounts to. Watch the first one or most sci-fi in general before this pile.I gave it a 2 because there was some merit in certain scenes (even though I'd be hard pressed to point them out).I try to be open minded and forgiving when I review but this movie forced me to be negative. Avoid.

movie-fan1 This is a very involving sequel, and was much better than I was expecting. It's a scary rollercoaster ride with involving characters, and an inventive plot. The acting was good. The characters and situations were quirky, scary, and surprising in its twists and turns. I generally don't like sequels, but this one was the exception to the rule... I give it two thumbs up.

bigar-4 This movie starts out fine because the first 10 minutes just replays the final of the original movie. But then all of a sudden the acting becomes really bad, so this must be the movie proper. Just to really let you know that this is going to be a very different movie they kill off everyone who survived the original in the next ten minutes. Then they don't know where to take the viewer and decide to just have the actors read out the script without any acting involved. To make it more easy for them everything is set in dark surroundings, so you can't see there not acting involvedPlease stay clear of this movie, because this is a real stinker..
