thiago s Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas de terror são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/22/25 Full Review Mason O Wait a minute this is peak cinema 8 out of 10 Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/24/25 Full Review SkyRo P "Leprechaun Returns" isn't exactly my top pick, mainly because I believe no one can truly embody the character of the leprechaun like Warwick Davis does. This new portrayal wasn’t awful, but it leaned more towards grotesque rather than the delightfully sinister charm that we associate with the original. The new leprechaun felt a bit off-putting. However, I do want to commend this film for a significant achievement: it marks the first time in the Leprechaun series—now the eighth installment—where there is genuine continuity. It actually serves as a sequel to the very first Leprechaun film featuring Jennifer Aniston. In this installment, we meet Leila, who is portrayed as Jennifer Aniston's daughter. Moreover, the beloved character Ozzie from the original film makes a comeback, which brings a nostalgic feel reminiscent of the first movie. The issue lies in the absence of Warwick Davis as the leprechaun; had he reprised his role, it would have tied everything together more cohesively and created a stronger connection to the original. As I mentioned, it’s not a bad film, and they did a commendable job overall. However, I doubt I would watch it again, primarily due to the casting choice for the leprechaun. It may seem trivial, but in this franchise, the original is untouchable, and if you’re going to make a change, the replacement needs to fit the character perfectly. That said, everyone is entitled to their own opinion about the film. Personally, it doesn’t rank high on my list, but I do appreciate their efforts to build on the original and breathe new life into it. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/26/25 Full Review Audience Member it's officially been over 26 years since the original movie came out starring Jennifer Aniston! a lot has changed from sustaining natural resources to modern communications technology apart from Warwick Davis who made his debut as the titular villain in the original Mark Holton is the only returning cast member as survivor Ozzie after a slew of quality-declining sequels this direct-to-TV installment thankfully matches the spirit of the original thank goodness the new Leprechaun is played by newcomer Linden Porco who looks much more hellish this time around it's been years since his defeat in the well but the little Irish villain makes a comeback Tori Redding has passed away but her daughter, Lila arrives at the same house where the events of the first movie occurred to participate in a going-green project; solar panels and utilizing water but little do her and her friends know that the Leprechaun is lurking in the shadows he's got a whole new bag of tricks with a thirst for bloodshed to keep his pot of gold Porco is actually so much fun to watch as the resurrected Leprechaun providing more grisly deaths with a bit of comedy throw in as well these teens are pretty bad in the acting department as you'd imagine but they have enough silly lines to make the viewing enjoyable the girl who plays Lila is actually the most likable of the bunch since she has a strong tie to the Leprechaun's past and has struggled to make new friends without trying to lose them plus the fact that everyone thought her mother was insane claiming she survived the evil demonic elf before there's also plenty of callbacks to previous entries despite this being the actual-follow up to that first film some of the effects have a lot to be desired but keep in mind this is a direct-to-TV production so you can forgive them for most of it the ending is actually quite different than you'd expect, who knows if this devilish creature's work is done for sure whatever the case the past sequels just got worse and worse without any real consistency, not to mention that so-called reboot which was a HUGE step in the wrong direction it's such a sigh of relief that this time 'Leprechaun' has truly returned having a bit of classic elements as well as new ones Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/18/24 Full Review Cg S It is clear that the franchise has definitely gone to a more realistic approach compared to the previous sequels this is definitely the best one in the series Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/15/23 Full Review Joseph Tutorials 73% i enjoyed it when the leprechaun is on screen but the characters are really bad and the story is okay and i got used to the voice after a while it's just the characters are not good and have no character either Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
