Friday the 13th: Part 2 Ratings & Reviews
Boston Globe
Michael Blowen
It's sloppier, bloodier and nastier than the so-called "original." It's horrible, not horrifying.
Houston Chronicle
Jeff Millar
Less a movie than litter.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Elston Brooks
There's a lame, not really understandable, double shock ending.
Miami Herald
Bill Cosford
Friday the 13th Part 2 is strictly a formula affair.
Toledo Blade
Norman Dresser
This is, in many respects, a remarkable movie -- remarkable, that is, in its awesome awfulness.
Tampa Bay Times
Bob Ross
Those who experienced summer camps and fireside ghost stories will remember the shaggy-dog plots and surprise endings of those impressionable days. The same juvenile formula pervades Friday the 13th Part 2.
Newsday
Bill Kaufman
The movie doesn't even come up with innovative ways of killing victims.
Chicago Tribune
Gene Siskel
This film is more even-handed in its treatment of the sexes than its predecessor, but not by much.
New York Daily News
Ernest Leogrande
"Friday the 13th" scored points with its realistically broken-down camp setting and its likable staff, whom you had time to get to know, but "Part 2" is laboriously mechanical in its effects.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Joe Pollack
The problem of "Friday the 13th Part 2" is one of taste and talent or, more properly, the absence thereof.
Hartford Courant
Malcolm Johnson
"Part 2" is more of the same kind of violence provided the first time around.
Detroit Free Press
Jack Mathews
One a scale of one to 10, one being a filmed autopsy, "Friday the 13th, Part 2" is a two.
Austin American-Statesman
Patrick Taggart
Technically and artistically it is straight down the middle mediocre -- no discussion necessary.
Dread Central
Johnny Butane
Does it hold up to modern day slashers? Yes and no. In a sense it does because it knows that it's a movie about a maniac killing people in interesting ways, and its focus is on setting up those kills.
Dread Central
Steve Barton
Possibly the best sequel in the entire franchise, Friday the 13th Part 2 has hit Blu-ray, and the results are … well … prettier than its DVD cousin.
New York Times
John Corry
The plot is an excuse for joining together horrors, all of the sado-masochist kind, and the acting is rudimentary at best. It probably will make a fortune.
Washington Post
Gary Arnold
Director Steve Miner and writer Ron Kurz introduce more potential victims than they have time or invention to knock off.
Variety
Variety Staff
Producer-director Steve Miner doesn't move in and out of scenes with the flair of original producer-director Sean Cunningham nor is he able to create the same nauseatingly realistic murder situations.
Slant Magazine
Jeremiah Kipp
Friday the 13th Part 2 never aspires to be termite art.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
This movie is a cross between the Mad Slasher and Dead teenager genres; about two dozen movies a year feature a mad killer going berserk, and they're all about as bad as this one.
