Critics Consensus

Michael Keaton's devious poltergeist still has plenty of juice left in this madcap return to form for Tim Burton, marrying charming practical effects and ghoulish gags to provide a fun fun time.

Mark Kermode Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube) Unlike the Ghostbusters reboots, this does have at least some of the charm of the original. Sep 20, 2024 Full Review Stephen Romei The Australian Beetlejuice Beetlejuice shines with Burton's striking visual style and dry wit. Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 20, 2024 Full Review Christina Newland iNews.co.uk There’s a resultant clumsiness to it that makes the traditional zaniness of the whole project feel telegraphed. Rated: 2/5 Sep 17, 2024 Full Review Jared Rasic Metro Times (Detroit, MI) When I most definitely will run into a drunk guy dressed like Beetlejuice on Halloween, if I ask him to tell me about his night, it will almost certainly be a more interesting story than the one Beetlejuice Beetlejuice tells. Dec 20, 2024 Full Review Maitland McDonagh MaitlandOnMovies (Substack) [T]here’s nothing to this movie. It was gossamer, it was a spider web — swipe your hand and it vanishes. ... The final act did pick up, as if the movie had realized it was just puttering around and had to rouse itself and finish big. Too little, too late. Dec 19, 2024 Full Review Beth Accomando KPBS.org “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” provides a perfect popcorn movie to escape to in air-conditioned cinemas. It offers deliciously dark and twisted eye candy but not much more. Dec 19, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Pablo Tim Burton may need some tweaks or improvements it wasn't bad but not good either Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/22/24 Full Review Zac Great movie if u like Burton and the old Beetlejuice...simple Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/19/24 Full Review Micah Rucker It wasn’t my cup of tea. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 12/19/24 Full Review Annette D This was a good sequel to the original. I enjoyed its homages. The actors, especially the Ghost with the Most himself, Michael Keaton, didn't miss a beat. The movie was outrageous in the best way. I enjoyed seeing the original cast and the new cast members as well. It's a fun ride with its wild humor. My only criticisms are that it might seem a bit chaotic because of its subplots, resulting in one new character who didn't seem as fleshed out (I won't say whom to avoid spoilers). Nonetheless, I would watch again in a Halloween or Beetlejuice marathon, and add to the Halloween watchlist. I rate this movie a 7/10. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/18/24 Full Review Larry G I liked it. Not the same as the original but I’m not mad at it. Shoutout bob one time, he was a real one. Take notes Gunna!! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/18/24 Full Review Beny M This movie is a must see. I watched it 3 times and loved it all 3 times didn’t get bored and didn’t expect it to be this good either. I watched the 1st movie the day before which was also really good especially for its time so I wasn’t expecting it to be as good or better than the first one but it definitely was Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/17/24 Full Review Read all reviews
