Following a family tragedy, three generations of the Dietz family return to their home in Winter River. Still haunted by Beetlejuice, Lydia’s life is turned upside down when her teenage daughter Astrid accidentally opens a portal to the afterlife. Jenna Ortega, Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, Katharine O’Hara, Justin Theroux and Monica Bellucci share why Beetlejuice Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice was an experience they’ll never forget.
Keaton said in March 2014 that this was the only sequel he was interested in making. The film makes reference to a «French physicist»; Maria Sklodowska-Curie; she is actually one of the most famous Polish scientists in history, often considered second only to Copernicus. Later, shit…

There wasn’t enough of Beetlejuice, the human side of the drama was boring. The first charm was Beetlejuice tormenting the Dietz family. There really wasn’t enough of that in this movie.
Overall, I think I’m being very generous with a score of 6 out of 10, which I could have lowered. No major complaints about the acting, but it just didn’t have the magic of the first movie. If you haven’t seen it yet, you can definitely wait for it to hit streaming.
