In the sequel to A Simple Favor, Emily Nelson, now out of prison, prepares for a glamorous wedding while navigating a web of deceit. The film opens with Stephanie Smothers livestreaming from her house arrest, framed for murder, with Emily as the catalyst. Despite reusing familiar tones and themes, the film incorporates new elements and twists but lacks the original's shocking flair. Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively's performances continue to steal the show, balancing comedy and thriller effectively, making the film a captivating watch.
"Another Simple Favor, like Emily's new way of making martinis, is quite similar: it remixes the elements of the original to deliver us yet another twisty, soapy delight."
"This film feels like it's lost a little of the shocking novelty of the first... but it makes do by throwing in as many twists and turns as it possibly can."
