Such a good follow up to a cult classic, now this is how sequels should be done.

I never thought it’d be Begbie that made my eyes get moist.

A very slow start but in the end I really liked it. The statement 'you can't go home again' seems inevitable, logical. Life changes and you either stay moved on else you are consumed in it, destined to repeat it over and over again. You gotta make the decision, I suppose, to stay stuck and comfortable in being the last 'indigenous' person as Spud put it. Or risk going forward and hoping that home remains a safe haven even if you don't recognize it. I stayed but it doesn't mean I don't think about changing that every day. Never too late, right?

I wasn't sure on this the first time I watched it. Watched it a second time and enjoyed it much more. Watch the first film before watching this.
Spud, Ewen Bremner is excellent in this.

Trades on our nostalgia for the first film, but there is nothing wrong with that. While I don't think a sequel was needed, it is still good to be back in the company of Renton and friends. Not as edgy as the original movie, but then life softens us all. Even Begbie... just a little!

There's some decent themes of regret and starting over, but ultimately it's just a rehash of the original. It's an unnecessary sequel, but there are a few funny moments, and a moving ending. If you like the original, you should enjoy it enough.

Solid movie with great directing, but it has nowhere to go.

The "choose life" monologue never fails to bring me to tears.

Works much better viewing this as a double feature that I wished I had done when this was originally released. Pleasantly surprised on a second screening.

Wished they showed Johnny Lee Miller's dick when he was actually hot 20 years ago.

"Trainspotting 2" is creative and absolutely bonkers coming from Danny Boyle. The whole thing is on speed, never losing heat. While not having a straight forward narrative that many will lose interest in. A sequel to the brilliant 1996 film seems unneeded, but I was along with the ride and enjoyed every minute of it. Good to see the old gang again.

The soundtrack and ending was amazing by the way. It's the highlight of the film for me.

We did not expect anything from it and we were surprised for good, good continuation, although it is less than 1

Watching this movie only served as a reminder of how great the original was. Did anyone ask for this sequel? Okay, obviously, from a technical aspect, this movie was great. The real problem here is the story can't live up to the first movie, and it is inseparable from it. There are entertaining moments, and I was never bored, but T2 lacks the dark humor, and gut-wrenching drama of its predecessor.
I could only recommend this film to someone who needed to see what our surviving characters were up to at middle age. Have at it.
If you haven't seen the first movie, this will will not make sense. Also, if you haven't seen the first movie, go watch that instead - it's a masterpiece, and I needed the shot in the arm (pun intended) to remember just how much I loved it.

Disappointing. Boringness. Lot of film grain looks raw but it was much more disturbing than I expected. HDR was unnaturally strong so colors were sometimes weird. Sound in one word. Average. I don’t like neither movie neither disc. I’m moving it on the last position on my shelf.

“T2 Trainspotting” is a rather forgettable film, but Renton and his “friends” are still a lot of fun to watch. I liked how the film keeps looking back at the original “Trainspotting” while at the same time making fun of the characters’ chronic nostalgia (and ours). Sure the energy and freshness of 20 years ago are dead and gone, but I was positively surprised by Boyle’s refined, yet sharp and imaginative visual direction in a few shots.
