Critics agree: the only thing scary about Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 is how poorly-constructed it is. The Guardian ’s Jesse Hassenger says the film can’t even transition between scenes with anything but the lumbering clunkiness of a pizza restaurant robot. The film has a stinky 12% on Rotten Tomatoes , with the vast majority of reviews calling the film boring, confusing, or hack. One outlier, the review at RogerEbert.com , which appreciates the film’s basic pleasures: “They used to make unpretentious sequels like this all the time in the 1980s. Now this feels like the best kind of throwback, an Amblin/Spielberg-esque horror-adventure that’s thoughtful and smart enough to warrant your attention.” The audience also tells a different story.
