Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
Debuting director Chuck Russell elicits poor performances from most of his thesps, making it difficult to differentiate between pic's comic relief and unintended howlers.

The film's dream sequences are ingenious, and they feature some remarkable nightmare images and special effects.

rotten:
While it's better than its predecessor, it's still not quite up to its inspiration.

rotten:
This is filmmaking by the numbers, without soul.

fresh:
A creepy score and Russell's sure grasp of the skewed logic of nightmares helps to sustain the ambiguity between the 'real' and 'dream' worlds, while Englund's Freddie now fits like a glove.
