T2 Trainspotting
First there was an opportunity......then there was a betrayal. Twenty years have gone by. Much has changed but just as much remains the same. Mark Renton (Ewan McGregor) returns to the only place he can ever call home. They are waiting for him: Spud (Ewen Bremner), Sick Boy (Jonny Lee Miller), and Begbie (Robert Carlyle). Other old friends are waiting too: sorrow, loss, joy, vengeance, hatred, friendship, love, longing, fear, regret, diamorphine, self-destruction and mortal danger, they are all lined up to welcome him, ready to join the dance.

Danny Boyle's useless recovery on of one of his greatest successes. [Full review in Spanish]

The first Trainspotting was about heroin. The second is about another dangerously addictive drug: Nostalgia.
March 23, 2017
T2 Trainspotting has one foot firmly planted in nostalgia and the other rooted in the present, and thanks in great part to Boyle's unique, world-class talent, everything old feels new again.

Improbably, the film vaults over most pitfalls of long-threatened sequels while evolving the delicately crafted world in the original. It's a more sober, mature film, but no less entertaining or provocative.

While T2 doesn't recapture the excitement of the original, it's a decent diversion.
May 18, 2017
In a nutshell: the watchable yet somewhat sloppy T2 Trainspotting only sporadically entertains and we don't feel sorry for letting it go when the ending comes.

A fun and welcomed trip down memory lane. Catching up with these guys wasn't so bad after all. Better than expected. [Full review in Spanish]

While T2 may never become as iconic a film for those who lived through the first outing, it's definitely got the ability to become a firm-favourite for them... and a younger generation.
April 18, 2017
A surprisingly dark climax marked with hilariously overwrought lighting is everything to love and hate about "T2 Trainspotting" - and Danny Boyle - all at once.
March 27, 2017
A film nowhere near as revelatory as the original, but in some ways more satisfying, the proper closing of a tale that had been left open-ended.
April 14, 2017
The quartet of gifted actors can't possibly match their youthful charisma... but they can find deeper resonance in the characters' emotional lives, a sense of lessons learned and proper amends proffered.
March 25, 2017
Nothing in T2 is memorable.
March 23, 2017
With a pulsing soundtrack and an ending scene that cleverly ties the whole thing back to the first picture, T2 is a sequel that is at least the equal of the revered original.

"T2 Trainspotting" is mostly a character study of damaged people trying to reconcile their troubled pasts and find a motivation to move forward.

Trainspotting 2, isn't bad, but it's a failed attempt to emulate the success of its predecessor. [Full review in Spanish]
