8/10
Favourite movie of franchise

Warning: Spoilers
After watching the original Child's Play released two years prior, this was also another great movie just at equal level or just slightly prefer this sequel over the first movie. Even James A Janisse of Dead Meat ranked this as his number 1.

Alex Vincent as Andy Barclay is quite grown and mature into taking matters into his own hands. Surely, he could've done more action in taking care of Chucky (like Kevin McCallister of Home Alone) instead of standing and watching and let himself take the fall.

If there's anything I didn't like in this movie is the teacher Miss Kettlewell who one of the worst adult characters in the franchise, she should've been reported for such acts even locking Andy in the classroom and assuming he defaced his homework. Also, some don't like the foster parents: Phil and Joanne, as they don't know Andy's genuine innocence from the broken ornament in pieces as Chucky used it. Phil is quite a strict meanie who takes no nonsense while Joanne is more compassionate, like any motherly figure, to Andy yet I didn't like when she assumes Andy topped Phil in the basement despite the electric knife he's holding is incriminating. I'm very much disappointed that the last we see of Joanne alive wasn't shown, we should've seen her reaction about Chucky being alive and her realization that Andy was truly innocent and telling the truth.

Kyle is very much likeable sidekick in this movie as she helps Andy in final scene at the factory and Andy saves her on the conveyor belt. Christine Elise does a good job in the movie in giving the tough big sisterly role.

The ending is kinda like a cliffhanger with no telling what Andy and Kyle do or go to as they no idea of home is. I certainly don't like the next movie sequel set at the military academy and Justin Whalin replacing Alex Vincent as Andy.
