"Smile 2" is now in theaters, and the filmmakers certainly delivered on their promise bigger with the sequel. But did bigger mean better in this case? Or is the original "Smile" still the better movie? In this sequel a troubled pop star, Skye Riley, is gearing up for a comeback tour after a tragic accident. The smile trauma curse finds her when she’s already struggling with pain and personal demons, as well as the pressures of fame, so it’s not long until Skye is feeling overwhelmed by the escalating horrors and her life begins spiraling out of control.
