The movie is mediocre, but I am looking forward to its OST

(II) The plot method is exactly the same as (I), and there is nothing new in it. The appearance of I is mere, but the connotation is not surpassed, which is a bit disappointing. Moreover, it seems that the "end of the world" came too easily, a bit too fake. This film is acceptable as a casual pastime.

It is worth mentioning that the soundtrack level of (II) is still quite good. I have heard of the 2CD version OST of (I) before, especially the song "Mad world" which is impressive. But many of the episodes in the middle have obscure melody, if I listen to it in one breath, I will definitely hear the depression.
Although the OST of (II) has not been found yet, but only from the movie, the melody is much brighter than that of (I). Especially the last part, such as "Carnival is over" and "Heaven or Las vegas", is still very nice. I am looking forward to it producing a complete OST.


PS: The vocabulary of this film is
death, resurrection; illusion, reality; blind obedience, rebellion; truthfulness, hypocrisy; joy, mask; destiny, accident; redemption, lies; time, space; sacrifice, friendship; comfort, calm...

    Only a little better than Butterfly Effect 2

    I basically didn't understand it, and the director expects the audience to remember the background knowledge of the first film after seven or eight years.
