Synopsis

After a family tragedy, three generations of the Deetz family return home to Winter River

Still haunted by Beetlejuice, Lydia's life is turned upside down when her teenage daughter, Astrid, accidentally opens the portal to the Afterlife.. Jenna Ortega, Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, Catherine O'Hara, Justin Theroux, and Monica Bellucci share why filming Tim Burton's Beetlejuice Beetlejuice was an experience they'll never forget.. Tim Burton has said that this film would only be made if Michael Keaton would return to reprise his role.

Beetlejuice: I think it was Dostoevsky who said

Keaton said in March of 2014 that this is the only sequel he's interested in doing.. The film makes a reference to "French physicist" Maria Sklodowska-Curie; she is, in fact, one of the most famous Polish scientists in history, often considered second only to Copernicus.. Later, fucker..

SPOILER: There is a dedication in the closing credits to Bob the Skinner, who died in the film.. MacArthur ParkWritten by Jimmy WebbPerformed by Donna SummerCourtesy of Island Def Jam Music GroupUnder licence from Universal Music Operations Ltd.. I admit, I went into this movie without any expectations, anticipation or nostalgia for the first movie.

When you think about it, the story naturally had to go in a new direction whilst still incorporating the afterlifeIts was whacky, at times funny and it looked good

I wasn't sure it would be a movie for me but as the film began, the camera panned over land and the dark but light hearted score played, I thought maybe I'll enjoy this. In fact, the score and the soundtrack were one of the highlights although it was less Joker and more Adams family.We're introduced to many fun and quirky characters old and new including three generations of the Deetz family but I like that the movie didn't simply repeat the first. For example whilst Lydia Deetz was weird and sympathetic to the paranormal in the original movie, her daughter Astrid played by Jenna Ortega is a sceptic s all things ghosts whilst still managing to give off Wednesday Adams vibes.

I can't say but I wish this has been released closer to Halloween as it would have made for some light hearted spooky fun

Whilst the story can be over the top and indeed predictable in places it's fine for what it is but it left itself with a lot to do as it approached its hour and 45 minutes runtime. Overall I had a fun and better than expected time with Beetlejuice Beetlejuice and I believe this can draw in new fans.If you enjoyed the first, will you enjoy this?
