Saw it a few days ago and was actually pretty satisfied. There were a few cringy parts (like Renton and Sickboy using SnapChat filters) but overall, I thought it was a great sequel that followed the book pretty well.

Any thoughts or comments from people who saw it as well??

My thoughts on it:

Trainspotting 2 (2017)

Not as good as the first one, but it is still pretty decent and has a few fun and nostalgic moments. It's for the fans of the first one rather than the general public imo... so long as the fans don't expect something great out of this sequel. It's more of a tribute than a movie; nothing memorable, just fun and nostalgic.

Basically don't expect anything amazing... it's just fun. As a movie it's average/mediocre, but as a tribute to the original it's decent. It has a few great moments and it's overall enjoyable if you liked the humour of the first one, but you can do without it.

I had fun and I don't regret watching it, but it's not memorable or thought provoking, and doesn't really add anything to the characters/story.


Oh, and the "No more Catholics!" scene is hilarious too :rofl:
