‘Ready or Not 2: Here I Come’ Review: Samara Weaving Gets Trapped in a More Dangerous — and Luridly Preposterus — Game
**"Ready or Not 2: Here I Come" Review: A More Sinister Game in Town** In 2019, the horror-comedy film "Ready or Not" took the world by storm, turning the classic "The Most Dangerous Game" into a twisted and hilarious tale of a bride who must survive a night of hunting at the hands of her in-laws. The film, which starred Samara Weaving as the feisty and determined Grace, offered a satirical look at wealth and privilege. Now, with the release of "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come", we get a more sinister and over-the-top take on the same theme. The new film is set after the events of the first movie and sees Grace facing even greater danger as she takes on the La Domas family's most powerful members. The movie is a go-for-broke sequel that ups the ante on violence, gore, and absurdity. It's a film that's not afraid to poke fun at the wealthy elite and their twisted games. In many ways, the film's release feels timely, given our current concerns about the abuse of power and the corrupting influence of wealth. The La Domas family's antics are a clear commentary on the excesses of the global elite, and the film's willingness to tackle these themes head-on is refreshing. The film's tone is a perfect blend of humor and horror, making it a great fit for fans of midnight movies. Samara Weaving is once again brilliant as Grace, bringing a level of wit and determination to the role that's hard to resist. While some may find the film's over-the-top violence and absurdity off-putting, fans of the first movie will likely love the new film's more extreme take on the series. And with its operatic scope and macabre humor, "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come" is sure to delight those who enjoy a good dose of schlocky entertainment. Overall, "Ready or Not 2: Here I Come" is a wild and entertaining ride that's not to be missed. If you enjoyed the first film, you'll likely love this new installment, and even if you're new to the series, the film's humor and satire make it a great introduction to the world of "Ready or Not". **In Naija context:** The film's themes of wealth and privilege are particularly relevant in Nigeria, where corruption and abuse of power are major concerns. The film's satire of the wealthy elite is a commentary on the excesses of the Nigerian elite, who often use their wealth and power to exploit the vulnerable. The film's take on the "elites" as a global cabal of evil is also a nod to the perception that corruption and abuse of power are not unique to Nigeria, but are a global phenomenon.
