Review:

“Don’t Breathe 2” is a solid follow-up to the original film, with intense moments of suspense and gore that will keep horror fans on the edge of their seats. Stephen Lang once again delivers a compelling performance as Norman Nordstrom, the blind man who is both sympathetic and terrifying in his actions.

The film does a great job of building tension and creating a claustrophobic atmosphere as Norman and the kidnappers engage in a deadly game of cat and mouse. The action is brutal and visceral, with some inventive and gruesome kills.

However, the film is not without its flaws. The pacing can feel uneven at times, with some slow and repetitive moments that drag on the story. The character development is also lacking, with most of the supporting characters feeling underdeveloped and one-dimensional.

Overall, “Don’t Breathe 2” is a worthy sequel that manages to capture the suspense and horror of the original film. While it may not surpass its predecessor, it still offers plenty of thrills and scares for horror fans to enjoy.
