“Another Simple Favor” might not be Emily’s perfection, chilled-glass martini, but that’s fine.

Rated: 3/5

It’s another very twist-heavy film that works better when its characters are just allowed to be marvelous instead of mysterious.

Rated: 2.5$

Matthew St. Clair

Cinematic Words of a Chaotic Gemini (Substack)

Although the sequel spices things up by having a more exotic setting and the scene-stealing duo of Elizabeth Perkins and Allison Janney joining the cast, Another Simple Favor does get bogged down by getting too twist-y as the mystery unfolds.

Rated: B

We Live Entertainment

A solid sequel... that doesn’t have the same magic or energy as the original, but there is enough here to recommend it to those who miss spending time with Stephanie and Emily and are up to going on an Italian adventure with them.

Rated: 7/10
