Poison Ivy II: Lily

Summary: Thoroughly enjoyable in a strangely melencholy sort of way
Review: I guess different people have different expectations of a movie labeled an "erotic thriller". Many people probably watch this movie for the breast shots of Milano, and they won't be disappointed. However, this movie has far more depth than just a showcase for the VERY talented actress and her fine body, it actually has a rather well done plot and a cast of excellent actors as well ! Each character seems to have been perfectly cast for their perspective role, and the story is unpredictable and rather unusual for an erotic thriller. Don't expect the usual tired seductress/broken hearted seductee sleep-a-thon here, this movie actually has plot twists and an interesting story line. I would say that this is the best movie of the 3 movie "Poison Ivy" series, and enthusiastically give it 5 stars.

Summary: Alyssa is Alyssa!
Review: I have seen this movie 4 times and still loved it the last time around. I mean who cares about the story. Alyssa is such an Angel and i'm willing to buy any movie she makes. Overall, I am personally encouraging you to purchase this and embrace of the vampire if you are a true admirer of her beauty.

Summary: Poison Ivy II: Lily
Review: I liked this movie. It's not the same as the other ones, but that is what I liked about it. I think changing the format was a good idea. Otherwise you have the same movie with different actors. You might as well just watch the same one over and over. Lily is trying to find herself. Lily is trying on a different personality. If you become someone else it is easier to do bolder things. Although, personally I think they could have found someone else to play her art teacher...

Summary: "Aching for you"
Review: I too think that the song "Aching For You" is great along with other songs Valeria writes and performs for the soundtrack. I could possibly hook you up with the music...write me at [e-mail].

Summary: I'd rather have poison ivy than watch this movie
Review: I was forced to sit through this movie; yes Alyssa is attractive and it's allright to see her half naked but being that she is one step down from a porn star - everyone has already seen that, so yes I was expecting her to be her normal trampy self again but you would think the movie would do something else to keep an audience interested.

Instead you go scene to scene waiting for her to undress or if you're like me waiting to see the credits roll as the plot is girl comes to town; has sex with the first guy she meets, reads some old diary notes, then decides to become a homewrecker, then finds her morals, married guy who thought he was going to get some gets pi$$ed and tries to kill her.

This movie was just downright awful and I still have nightmares from viewing it.

Summary: Forget the hype -- a respectable drama
Review: I've no idea why PI2 is packaged as a sequel to the Gilbert/Barrymore "Poison Ivy". Lily (the Milano character) is no teen murderess, nor is she a premeditated homewrecker. The story is sexy, but not gratuitously so. Both Alyssa Milano and several others turn in competent performances. Cheryl Ladd was particularly notable in her role as the invalid wife. Milano, of course, is stunning. She's sexy enough, thank you -- but mostly she's just oh-wow, girl-next-door pretty.

Summary: For Alyssa Fans Only
Review: If you love Alyssa Milano then you will love her in this movie. If you don't like her then you will hate it. Milano is absolutely stunning and does very well from innocnet Lily to seductress Lily. Unfortunatly the script is awful and the movie drags on and on.Alyssa doesn't even get the pleasure of working with talented actors which could have made the movie better.Xander Berkely is awful and unappealing as the art teacher and I cringed whenever he was in a scene. Jonathan Scheach did what he could in a role that had no substance whatsoever. This film is shot beautifully and the director does everything she can to make Alyssa look beautiful in every shot. As I said if your an Alyssa fan get this movie, if your a fan of Poison Ivy with Drew Barrymore, just watch that one again.

Summary: Not what it should be
Review: If you've seen the original Poison Ivy, then you kindof know what you should expect to see when watching the 2nd. And if you liked the original, you will be severely disappointed by this sequel.
After having watched the original Poison Ivy, I looked forward to this one. Unfortunately, this is one of those sequels that had a lot going for it until the creators ruin it.
What the movie is *supposed* to be about is a "good girl" (Milano) just starting college in a new place and doesn't know anyone, so she tries to fit in by making changes to herself and her personality. She finds old diaries of the original "Ivy" and learns Ivy's art of seduction from them and slowly, but surely becomes her own version of what Ivy was.
Ok, that sounds to me like the premise for a great sequel...but the creators of the movie ruined it by:
1. Not enough emphasis on our "new Ivy"'s mental change and growing obsession with her new ways.
2. Because of what I mentioned above in #1, our new Ivy (Milano) isn't very creepy at all. The change from her good girl image to that of Ivy is shallow, at best. There is no obsession, no reminder of the drive behind her character.
3. Because of #2, our new Ivy is not in control of the story. Her pervert teacher is. In fact, she is even treated as a victim in the end. What?! Where's the seduction? Where's the loss of control?
4. Given what the movie is supposed to be about, the ending definitely leaves a lot to be desired. So she realizes the "error of her ways" (and since there was never really any emphasis on exactly what her "error" was, that statement is a misnomer) and hooks up with her boyfriend. Big deal. No thrills, no suspense.
It would've been better if they had not made this movie in the first place, but since they gave it a shot...2 stars.

Summary: Séduisant
Review: Le film poison Ivy est un de ses films qui nous séduit. La performance de la jeune comédienne Alyssa Milano est incroyable. Les images sont intéressantes, même croquantes malgré qu'elles soit sombres. Les personnages ont les yeux remplis d'émotions quand ils jouent leur rôles. Ils savent très bien nous rendre leurs émotions. Enfin un film romantique qu'on peu écouter avec son petit ami; qui commence bien une soirée mouvementée.
