To me, this movie is perfection.

the audience applauded

Absolutely the worst movie.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

This sequel to "Critters" is more of a rehash, and it's awkward that more cast members did not return, but director Mick Garris does a better job with the title creatures than Stephen Herek did: they are more vicious, and their attacks are gorier. This time, they take on the entire town, which ups the ante. The special effects in general are better, and the film is a little more adult than the first. Roxanne Kernohan adds major sex appeal as an intergalactic bounty hunter who embraces her mission to "kill crites" with glee. **1/2 out of 4.

This sequel to "Critters" begins logically enough, as the bounty hunters Ug (Terrence Mann) and Charlie (Don Keith Opper) return to Earth, having found out about the pile of Crite eggs left at the end of the first movie. In the company of another bounty hunter, they go about their mission, while former farm boy Brad Brown (the likable Scott Grimes) returns to the town of Grovers' Bend for an Easter vacation with his grandma (Herta Ware), and the Crite eggs unfortunately get distributed around town.Once the eggs are hatched, it's all about the Critter action in this fairly fast paced effort by first time feature director Mick Garris ("Sleepwalkers"), who also wrote the script with David Twohy ("Pitch Black"). The main change is the opening up of the action, what with having the Crites take on the town of Grovers' Bend en masse. The effects by the Chiodo brothers are typically amusing; the big draw this time is seeing the petite monsters fuse themselves into a great big ball and go rolling hungrily along. (It does make one wish that they do a little more damage in this capacity.)The cast proves to be game: Opper is once again endearing as Charlie, Liane Curtis likewise appealing as young reporter Megan. Lending their valuable support are Sam Anderson as Megans' dad, the local newspaper publisher, Lin Shaye (another returnee from the first "Critters") as his employee Sally, Barry Corbin, taking over the role of Harv from M. Emmet Walsh, and the always-good-for-a-laugh Eddie Deezen as a restaurant manager. Garris's wife Cynthia plays a small role and also wrote and sang that catchy jingle. Some viewers will appreciate the presence of the sadly short lived beauty Roxanne Kernohan, as the third bounty hunters' incarnation as a Playboy centerfold.There is a funny little in-joke regarding New Line Cinemas' biggest franchise character at that time.Overall, agreeable entertainment for fans of the genre.Seven out of 10.

I loved "Critters",but this sequel wasn't quite that good.The premise had some potential,some Critters eggs were left behind on planet earth and the Bounty Hunters have to return so they can exterminate the furry menace once and for all.Meanwhile it's easter season and Brad Brown is back in town.Now i'm sure you can imagine what happens when you mix Critters eggs and Ester time right?Well...it could have been so much more....Anyway the acting wasn't fantastic,in fact it was quite bad sometimes..the cheesy 80's special effects and rubber dummies are there and they do the job if you like the style (like I do).There is a little bit of gore but nothing special..The humor was dull with some exceptions, like the new Bounty Hunter looking for a identity, the car chasing and the Critters assemble (I loved the fx here...maybe the only original idea) were funny too...but in the end i couldn't help but feel a little bored through the whole movie.I give it 4,5 out of 10.

The Crites are back and this time they're hungrier and meaner, although CRITTERS 2 is a good sequel its not really as good as the first one but its not bad at all, its also very fun to watch and very entertaining but it lacks a little something that could've made it as good as the first one, the problem is I don't know what but if you watch the two films back to back you'll understand what I'm saying.The acting is very good however but I didn't really recognize many of the cast with the exception of a few familiar faces from the first film and of course a certain playboy playmate who is seen in one of the film's funny moments.Overall, its a good sequel even though its not as good as the first one I'll recommend it about as much as I would the first one.
