I never got around to seeing Happy Death Day and hadn't seen any trailers for this one, so I had no idea what to expect. But wow this was a pleasant surprise. Each character in this film is excellent, they all have great on-screen chemistry, especially Jessica's Rothe and Israel Broussard's characters. They also all have great comedic moments, but some jokes fall flat.
All though it is a horror movie of sorts it has a surprising emotional undertone. This "emotional" part explores the relationship between our heroine and her mother which can get very emotional for some people. Hell, it made me cry to the point where my friends were roasting me once we left the theatre.
In terms of the horror part of the film, I didn't like it. That's not a knock on the film per se just the fact that I don't like horror. If you are a fan of horror, you'll enjoy this, but for me, the horror aspect didn't work.
7/10 - Worth your money
