Review of T2 Trainspotting (2017) by Odjento — 17 Mar 2017
Whilst this film doesn't feel as kinetic as the original it provides us with a nice viewon ageing and what is does (or doesn't) do for us. This film does seem a lot more pointless and the ending gets racked up into a silly hollywood-like chase, and with some gratuitous cinematic and editing decisions made that shows this films wants to be something new but can't let go it's predecessor.
The film overall becomes sloppy and overdramatic in its narrative, but still offers enough visual and comedic wonder to the screen to make it at least a worthwhile watch. This film is funnier than the first, but in no way is it better.
An enjoyable, yet needless reunion. 6.
