Happy Death Day 2U

Happy Death Day 2U is a 2019 American science-fiction black comedy-slasher film written and that is a sequel to the 2017 horror-comedy film, Happy Death Day, directed by Christopher Landon.

Summary
Tree Gelbman discovers that dying over and over was surprisingly easier than the dangers that lie ahead once she’s transported into a dimension where Lori is innocent, her mother is alive and there is a new Babyface Killer on the loose.

Why It Rocks

 * 1) It tends to be a wonderful follow-up sequel from it’s predecessor.
 * 2) The acting is still amazing, especially from Jessica Rothe who reprises her role as Tree.
 * 3) The film has much more comedy in this film then in the first one.
 * 4) We finally get an explanation to why Tree keeps dying and ending up having to relive the same day.
 * 5) The movie adds in a few decent sci-fi vibes to it.
 * 6) Many of the character get much more screen time then they did in the first, like Tree’s sorority sister, Danielle, and Carter’s roommate, Ryan.
 * 7) The idea of SISSY (Ryan’s invention that causes time loops) is very original.
 * 8) Many unforgettable and hilarious moments, like how Tree skydives in a bikini and flips off the audience or when SISSY explodes a large shockwave in slow motion while “The Flower Duet” plays in the background.
 * 9) The alternate universe Tree is trapped in has many well-handled twists and turns, such as how Professor Gregory and his wife are the killers this time (in the other dimension), not Lori.
 * 10) The chemistry between Tree and her mom is shown to be very heartwarming.

The Only Bad Quality

 * 1) While a pretty great follow-up from the first movie, the film feels WAY too much like a sci-fi comedy instead of a horror-comedy.
