The
second movie in this series starts with the robbery of an art
gallery. In this heist, the lovely Morgana finds the red stone
that houses the Djinn and unknowingly releases him. As the Djinn
starts to collect souls, she quickly realizes what she has done
and tries to stop him with the help of her ex-boyfriend who is
now a priest. The Djinn's mission is simple: collect 1001
souls and then get three wishes from the person who released him.
If he's successful the race of Djinn will inherit the earth.
Blah, blah, blah.
In the previous paragraph I gave you a lot of what happens in
the movie and I did it for a good reason. There are hows and whys
that I left out because I hate spoilers and because some of you
might be interested in this flick. But the reason I gave so much
information is because I feel as though everybody might be better
off not seeing this ridiculous, horrible farce of a film.
There are so many core elements different from the first film
that I have trouble calling this a sequel. This film could stand
on it's own but I don't think anyone would want it to.
The most notable change, and similarity, from first to second
film is one of the main charcters, the Djinn. Divoff, who was
great in the first film, is back as the Djinn but with a load
of changes. The costume changed drastically, not for the better
mind you, and the Djinn himself lost the swagger and appeal that
made him so likeable and evil at the same time. In this film he's
a bit wimpy and not very intimidating.
The story itself is choppy and there were minutes at a time when
I thought to myself, "What does this scene have to do with
the story at all?" If there was anything that I could pick
out that made this movie at all watchable it would be that the
woman who played Morgana was pretty hot. But that's all!
Do yourself and all of your friends a favor. Since this movie
is for sale on a double disc along with the first, watch only
the first film and enjoy it, because it's good. But then
let the fun end right there and put the disc back in it's
case. You can thank me, SirWiggle, later for saving that hour
and a half of your precious time to do something or anything more
useful.
