There are very few
franchises that have had the continuous success of the X-Men universe. Bumps in
the road have occurred along the way with films like X-Men: The Last Stand and
X-Men Origins: Wolverine, but for the most part the mutant universe has entertained

Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising - Review
Comedy sequels have
been historically bad. Everyone knows this and yet they are still released on
an almost yearly basis. The comedy becomes, most of the time, repetitive and
often feels stale, using the same or similar comedic beats to the first. Luckily
there may be another film to add to the list of good comedies and that is
Neighbors 2.

see them grow and evolve into well rounded emotional characters. To see them

utilizing this attachment the audience has.
