Why do we sometimes use Roman numerals still? Do we just somehow think they’re classier?
Scanners 2 stars David Hewlett of the movie Cube and picks up with him as a socially removed guy who gets thrown into the deep end of stuff as he moves to a large town. He discovers that he has Scanner powers when he’s in a store that gets robbed, and soon enough he gets recruited by a bad politician to help get the guy elected.
The movie has a good couple believable characters and a tight, minimalistic scope while still having good head explosions and other effects. The politicians have another scanner working for them who’s the main baddie, and he’s an overacting weirdo who looks like a greasy drifter, and that works well.
I watched Scanners 3 before this and its more fast paced and campy, which is fun, this one is slower and more like the first Scanners. Not that that's bad, I just did actually like 3 more. I will give this a 3.5
