A disappointment to Part 1
I saw this movie because of its prequel but this Part 2 is below the Part 1 in almost everything: the script, character building, pacing, acting and even fighting scenes. Somes may praise its visual but to me it's just another case of technique abuse. The only consolation is Ja Yoon's appearance and a few minutes with Kim Da Mi are worth more than the whole hour of the female character's dead blank face. So no Part 3 for me.
Convoluted but fun gruesome kills
I wasn't quite engaged through its convoluted new characters' stories but Park Hoon-jung didn't let us down with some cute/cringey moments and gruesome kills. At least superhuman concepts in convincing world building will live to see another day in Part 3.
The Witch: Part 2 The Other One (2022, South Korea) - Film Intro By Tamil
If only a bloody psycho serial killer movie is coming in Korea, a horror and action movie full of mystery and especially sci-fi is coming nowadays, isn't it worth paying attention to it? That is the attraction that the first part gave, waiting for the second part. This second part is not that much great but a good one watchable one time, which came in a gap of four years, somewhere related to the first film. Suppose there is a secret magical witchcraft scheme. Their job is to genetically inject something to children and boys and girls and make them look like powerful monsters with super-powered,, so same as the old concept with some actions ..

Bloodier than part 1 but average
This film will suck you into the story and won't let you go. The opening scene was magnificent. The film felt more violent, bloodier and gore-y than part 1 but it was still not too over the top. The fight scenes were nice to watch and very well choreographed.
However, the whole plot ofo the film felt simple. For two hours, you were basically watching two groups of supernatural humans chase one god-like girl that took all of them down within 15 minutes. I wish they added more depth into the story, focused more on the girl's origin and maybe more on how she became the strongest and most powerful of them all. What happened in the lab? Why was she created? More background to her story.
Overall, it was a nice watch and I do recommend to watch it.
JUST FINE
Ok this is just an extension and expansion of a good old story. Introducing a new girl, more sides of the evil organization, faking super power fighting and CGIs but nothing wowed me or still stuck in my brain when I walked out of the movie theater. Just another plain story to be told thousand times before but with young and beautiful actors and actresses.
I like the set up of this world but I rather follow the route of the girl from part 1, at least, she got an amazing plot twist.
