The first Monster High movie got a lot of attention, but man, did no one watch this one. This has only a handful of reviews and almost all of them seem to be from people involved in making the film. As someone who had no part in making the film, just someone who watched it (or attempted to watch it), let me just say it is a terrible, terrible film.
I watched the first film from start to finish. (You can check out my review, where I go in-depth). And while the first film was bad, it was at least watchable. And it did have some good points (albeit few). The songs were bad, but they at least sounded like they belonged in a movie. The plot made no sense, but at least it was paced decently in a three-act format.
THIS film, however, was so bad it's bad. Unwatchable. My friends and I barely made it past the half-hour mark before we all agreed we needed to turn it off. We didn't even have anything to say about it due to how boring it is.
Again, my title. It's literally a movie about teenage monsters who sing and dance. And it ended up too boring to finish. How is that even possible?! I couldn't think of a more potentially engaging concept for a movie. It could have at least been bad in a campy way, but no.
It was paced horribly. We made it to thirty minutes and nothing happened except:
1. Deuce said he POTENTIALLY COULD leave Monster High. He's thinking about it but hasn't made a decision either way
2. Clawdeen made the decision to run against Torelei for class president, which really doesn't matter all that much to the plot. Nothing happened regarding the campaign except Clawdeen made some posters
3. Draculaura met a really shady guy who is POTENTIALLY a love interest for her. He told her he is a human witch and they proceeded to do a really terrible two-person dance sequence which is the moment we had to turn it off
I don't recommend anyone watch this movie due to how boring it is. But due to the lack of attention I think no one wanted to watch it anyways.
