This is an inferior sequel to the Skulls which was directed by Rob Cohen (Dragon Heart, Rat pack, Daylight)which was a very fine film indeed.
Skulls 2 Directed by Joe Chappelle (Halloween, CSI:Miami TV series and other TV work) which is based still on a secret society in an unnamed Ivy League college just like Skulls 1 but that's the end of the comparison. Where Skulls had a big budget, big named stars, suspense, cinematography, music score, drama this sequel has none of this. This is a dull, dull film with dull characters except Robin Dunne (who plays Ryan) is quite able but just surrounded by faceless wooden efforts of which you really dont care for. All in all don't bother instead mow the lawn, hoover the house, dig a hole all these things would be a better use of your time and effort.
Same story as the much better first one, no new ideas and therefore extremely predictable. The money could have been put to much better use by taking one of the main characters of the first part and continuing their storyline or making a donation to the homeless.
