Part 1 of the "Parasyte" movies, from 2014, wasn't overly impressive, but at least it was better than this 2015 sequel. But I didn't know that prior to sitting down to watch "Parasyte Part 2" (aka "Kiseijuu: Kanketsuhen").
Sure, the special effects in this movie were great, just as they were in the previous movie. Some interesting enough creature designs as well.
However, the entire movie was just swamped with too much drama and politics, to the point where the entire storyline was just turning to mush. I didn't enjoy much of anything of this movie.
The acting in "Parasyte Part 2" was good, taking into consideration the limitation of the script and storyline imposed upon the actors and actresses.
I am sure there are some hardcore fans for this. I, however, wasn't just particularly into it, and as such, the movie scores a mere three out of ten stars because it was too much of a political drama that it was an enjoyable movie. And this is definitely not a franchise that I will be sitting down to watch again.
