The mystique might have faded, but the psychopathic Chucky is still an apt threat.

Only in the highly orchestrated, surprisingly gory climax, wherein Chucky's plastic form takes on the sins of the flesh, is there a spark of originality.

Entirely standard sequel fare. Fans of the first one will be entertained on an infrequent basis.

An inevitable sequel that's not as good as its progenitor, but better than most movies with the numbers 2 through 8 in their titles.
