After a pleasantly campy beginning, this uneven movie settles into a typically cacophonous routine, attempting to disguise its lack of scares. Chucky is remarkably inert as a slasher villain; his presentation leans too much on the basic conceit of an animated doll who wants to kill people, which is a one-trick gambit that gets old after a few minutes. I was also personally annoyed by the movies focus on the world of a child who keeps having absurd things happen to him, only for authority figures to think hes playing games. Despite its significant failings, however, I enjoyed watching Childs Play 2 overall. In particular, Kyle is a surprisingly engaging protagonist, thanks to Christine Elises performance as well as a script that gives her genuine character development. The portion of the movie that focuses on her is snappy and thoroughly watchable. --- "I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people who do." You won the CBX Guru Contest, Advokaiser!
