Incredible animatronics and well-placed jump scares can't save Five Nights at Freddy's 2, which plays like a movie written by Reddit fan theories.
Josh Hutcherson seems bored in the FNAF 2 adaptation, which adds The Marionette from the game and expands her story, but mostly aims at existing fans.
The latest sequel to the "Five Nights at Freddy's" film franchise had many fans waiting with anticipation throughout the year for its release. Unfortunately, the anticipation died when "Five Nights at Freddy's 2" proved to be a rather disappointing film that relied purely on nostalgia.
“Five Nights at Freddy’s 2” was scripted by Scott Cawthon, who created the video game series the films are based on. Emma Tammi returns to direct the second installment, and she revealed to Variety not only how she collaborated with Cawthon to bring his world to the big screen, but also how fan feedback helps to shape the films.
Just a day before one of this year's most anticipated upcoming video game movies hits the big screen, the reviews are in for Five Nights at Freddy's 2, and it's safe to say that critics did not have the best time on their return to Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria.
