Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
Wild Things 2, the purported sequel to the 1998 guilty-pleasure classic, returns to steamy Florida for another tale of trashy thrills among the lives of high school students. Brittany (Susan Ward, of the Aaron Spelling soaps Malibu Shores and Sunset Beach) is a beach-volleyball stud and nice girl whose chance for happiness is threatened by her vicious rival Maya (Leila Arcieri). Toss in a suspicious investigator (Isaiah Washington), some plot twists, and laughable dialogue, and sit back for the ride. Wild Things 2 isn't really a sequel; none of the characters (and not surprisingly none of the actors) return, though there is a re-do of the original's most famous scene. That's about the only semi-noteworthy aspect of this straight-to-video potboiler. --David Horiuchi

2.0 out of 5 stars "They love their volleyball. I don't know why.", May 10, 2004

By	Found Highways (Las Vegas) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Wild Things 2 (2004) (Dol Slip) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The principal of Blue Bay High may not know why his students love their volleyball, but we do.

Wild Things 2 recycles the set-pieces from the quadruple-cross neo-noir thriller Wild Things. (1) Rich b-ch and trailer trash who hate each other listen to police lecture in high school auditorium. (2) Rich b-ch attacks trailer trash on witness stand during trial. (3) Girls get together with conspirator in motel room for three-way. And so on, with little deviation from the plot of the first Wild Things. You see everything coming.

Unfortunately, Wild Things 2 doesn't have the acting talents of Kevin Bacon, Neve Campbell, Matt Dillon, Theresa Russell, Carrie Snodgress, Denise Richards, or Bill Murray. And in Wild Things 2 the twists and turns don't come from the characters, the way they did in Wild Things, especially Neve Campbell's bitter young woman.

It is possible to retell a story in a sequel using the same plot and still grab an audience. The Rage: Carrie 2 is a good example. It's director Katt Shea's feminist response to Brian De Palma's version of Stephen King's story. The Rage makes it clear that the telekinetic adolescent girl is a victim of cruelty from others, not some original sin within herself because she's grown into a woman.

The only reason they made this movie was for the money. Not good enough.

1.0 out of 5 stars Amusing title, May 1, 2004

By	RKL (Asheville, NC) - See all my reviews

Is this a follow-up to Wild Things 1? Not even close. Trying to cash in by using the title and the numerical '2', this movie plays like a bad USA B movie. A no-name cast and a silly storyline, very little of the elements that made WT1 so popular. If you want the real thing, just buy Wild Things(the R rated version) and if you must have it, the new 'unrated' version. WT2 sadly is a frisbee.

1.0 out of 5 stars Porn without the um... well, porn., March 23, 2004

By	Matt Bateman (Somewhere else) - See all my reviews

I just saw this movie and couldn't believe how terrible it is. The plot is so much like the first one that this movie even has a 3-way sex scene like the first was famous for. The film was done so poorly that if you watch carefully you'll notice that right in the middle of the scene shoes suddenly appear on Maya's feet, whereas she had been barefoot only seconds earlier. If an entire cast and crew is too stupid to notice that, then you can just imagine how the rest of the film goes. Also, the whole idea of using rats to sabotage the electrical system in an airplane is too far-fetched to be believed. Avoid this at all costs.
