Regardless of disliking the first film, I wanted to give the sequel a shot, thinking maybe the conclusion of the story would somehow improve these films. I was wrong, very wrong. It is exactly more of the same. Here Kora along her companions barricade themselves in 'Veldt', Kora's home, and prepare for the attack of the Realms forces. With cringe worthy dialogue, an unbelievably annoying villain and yet again a predictable chain of events, this film flopped miserably.
I am guessing both films were filmed simultaneously for there were no improvements whatsoever from the backlash of the first film. Most performances were weak and over dramatic, a lot of which in my opinion is due to the writing. I had numerous points in the film where I laughed uncontrollably while supposedly serious scenes were taking place.
Kora's narrative for this entire film was to earn herself redemption for her previous actions and by doing so maybe start a new, peaceful life. That's why in her moment of truth she completely abandons her moral plans and has a change of heart. Her character was written to be a selfless hero, but to me came out as a pretentious bore.
More of the same. Visually boring, bad writing and bad performances. Again, the ending is meant to set up more sequels that I believe won't happen. Not recommended.
