Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaFor the scenes inside the university hospital, the sets had to be rebuilt from scratch for this film, as the actual hospital used in the first film had been gutted.
- GoofsMRI machines do not turn on/off like that. First of all, MRI's are always on, even at night. There is an OFF button, but only for severe emergencies, because once the MRI is turned off - it takes weeks and thousands of dollars to turn it back on. Therefore, as soon as Tree and Gregory enter the room, her screwdriver and his gun would be pulled to the machine. The wheelchair would already be stuck to the machine (there was no reason to put one in an MRI room).
- Crazy creditsMid-Credits scene. The five students are picking up trash when Government vehicles arrive to pick them up. They have acquired Ryan's SISSY device and recruit the team for research. First test subject brought into a time loop, Danielle.

Featured review
I was stupidly excited for the first movie only to be a little disappointed, it was good but didn't live up to its potential. A sequel I thought!? How could they possibly do that? And except from a financial standpoint why would they?
Rumored to be the second of a trilogy, I'm sad to say that the first thing that comes to mind after watching it is that it's a blatant cashgrab. The first movie made them a shed load of money so they felt obligated to make a sequel and rushed it out without little care and attention.
Following on straight from the first film we see another time loop and Tree once again investigating why it's happening. Honestly, I struggled to get behind the plot this time as I deemed it pretty pathetic by comparison.
Happy Death Day 2U though a huge disappointment and mindless cashgrab isn't a bad film, it's just poor compared to the first and clearly rushed out to capitalize on the popularity of the original.
If they're going to make a third I'd suggest they give it additional time, better writers and entirely go back to the drawing board because this was messy.
The Good:
Jessica Rothe
Nice follow on
Some funny moments
The Bad:
Considerably weaker writing
Blatant cashgrab
