Buffronioc One of the wrost movies I have ever seen

UnowPriceless hyped garbage

SteinMo What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

BrickNash Trainspotting was a defining film for me. It came out in my final year of school and it played a big part in making me want to be a filmmaker.This sequel, although stylishly shot, really doesn't come up to the original's standards, and it's mostly down to the suspension of disbelief being broken through inconsistencies.Begbie suddenly has a family who have sprung up from out of nowhere and I just didn't buy it for one second. The character of Veronika is charming, but she just feels like a hastily re-written replacement for Diane and it would have been far more nostalgic had Kelly MacDonald taken that place as Diane in the film, becasue it seems like most of the conversations that Renton and Veronika have were meant for him and Diane.Apart from that, the pacing feels quite choppy and inconsistent. Bar Sickboy and Renton, the guys don't really hang around together than much in the film, and now that Begbie is pretty much the villain of the piece he is almost totally removed from the group for the majority of the movie, so all that original chemistry feels fractured.Add to this the story about building a sex sauna just isn't interesting and it doesn't come near the original film's pure character struggles with the heavy drug element.It's not a bad film by any means, but it lacks the absorbing grab factor of the original, and while there are moments of greatness, it's just lost in a pretty bland story with weak motivations and a inconsistent narrative, most of which feels forced. It felt like they had a decent idea but had to re-write bits and then cram it in to a sub standard reason to have them all together again.Worth a look for sure, but for me it falls short.

garyarmstrong-78424 Was really looking forward to this but the movie just left me feeling utterly let down,bad writing and screenplay shocking really,it wouldnt have been hard to come up with a convincing story with a few laughs but movie was just flat, i give it a generous 2. how on earth it has all these 10 ratings in unbelieveable must be people involved in this turd. lets hope the new bond movie isnt anything like this toilet deposit

tubezzz The first 30-40 minutes of the movie were perfect. everyone is back, the scenes are funny and promising, and the nostalgia kicks in and makes you fall in love with the cast all over again.Sadly, after 30+ minutes, it feels like they literally lost the script, and had to come up with the story on the spot. the momentum is gone and so is the excitement. the story is just not good enough.

dallasdearing T2 is one of those movies that, when it ends you feel like a woman who has just had sex: "that's it?" Competently filmed and acted, but not overall a great movie because of the script. I love the original, I've seen it a dozen times at least. This film relies on the viewer's nostalgia for the first without coming up with anything original, and despite my love for the original it failed to get me into it. The plot manages to feel meandering without much even happening, probably because it's paced terribly. Renton comes back to Scotland after 20 years, checks in on the characters, then tries to make money before escaping being murdered by Begbie. That's it, everything, the entire plot in one sentence! I couldn't sum up Trainspotting so quickly. This movie also has no real message or moral, aside from one line of dialogue which tries to shove feminism down your throat. Trainspotting had a very nuanced albeit cynical critique of society, not this one. I've never seen just a masturbatory piece of film before. Danny Boyle made the original Trainspotting, and he won't let you ever forget it.
