Another Simple Favor - Recensioner

The appeal lies in its bouncy energy and the sexy smirk it wears while happily yanking the rug out from under you multiple times over, rather than narrative logic.

Love the sleaze and glamour of Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively in the original? Now imagine them in Capri!

...a Sequel That Somehow Makes Even Less Sense (in a Good Way)

Like the first film, Another Simple Favor is an exceptionally well-dressed movie, and one with the good sense to make its statement outfits part of the film’s humor as well as its aesthetic.

It feels like a holiday, and a pretty fun one at that, but it could have used a few wilder turns just to keep us – like its stilettoed leading ladies – constantly on our toes.

...dumb fun in the sun for Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick.

...has no aspirations beyond being a quick morsel. And a morsel it is.

As before, Kendrick is a winningly perky foil for Lively’s mad machinations, and there’s much fun to be had as both actresses snipe at one another from behind an increasingly tattered pretence of mutual bestie-ship.

...like a decadent Italian getaway, no matter what, it's fabulous fun.

Trots roliga stunder i lyxmiljöer avverkar vi många händelser lite för hastigt. Där föregångaren var en avskalad, relativt enkelspårig historia ligger fokus nu på att inge en chockfaktor hos tittarna.

En underhållande och ganska typisk uppföljare, som åker till Capri och frossar i vackra miljöer, snygga kläder och bisarra intriger.
