It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

Excellent film that is much better than the original. Robin Dunne has so much more appeal than Joshua Jackson. I wonder why Dunne doesn't get better roles? Maybe he needs a new agent. The film features Dunne as Ryan Sommers, an Ivy League stud who is tapped for a secret society called The Skulls. Joining this club is a dream come true for every hot-blooded college man and at first all is well. Then when Ryan witnesses the death of another student, all kinds of danger and deception occur. This film is so good, it makes me want to go back to high school and study more for the SAT so I can get into Yale. Anyway, Sommers' love interest Kelly played by Lindy Booth is also very appealing. Listen to the closing credits music as well. It's quite good. I definitely recommend this film to others.

Okay, So I don't really remember that much about the first Skulls, but what I do remember is Paul Walker, and that's enough for me. And, although, I don't think Joshua Jackson is that cute, in my opinion, I did think that he had a certain charm in the film. However, I never though that Paul Walker would be in danger of being the less hotter of the two, but Robin Dunne, makes that a reality. He is one of the HOTTEST actors of our time, or at least in my generation. But, other than how hot Dunne was in the movie, which is a big part of the film, the movie itself, was quite surprising. I was happy to find that this movie was just as good, if not better than the first Skulls. It had some great intense scenes, and some great plot twists. It kept you guessing as to what was going to happen next, and made you stick around for more. With more than a few chase scenes, and sexy boxers and bras, the movie really helps show off Dunne's great acting ability. Which, you might be surprised to find, already knowing that he is hot, and can't even being able to imagine that his acting could be as good as his looks. The two female leads were good. The brunette was probably better at playing a bitch, than the blond was at playing sweet and innocent. But I liked both, and was jealous of both, not only because they got to share the same air, as Robin, but also because they both got to kiss Robin! But, all in all, I think that the film was definitely worth watching, and I'm glad I gave it a chance instead of pawning it off as just another dumb sequel. So check it out...you'll like it.

The premise of the Skulls and it's sequel is that we are looking at the inner workings of one of America's (fictional) secret societies.Unfortunately because it is a sequel it will be compared to the original.This film has the same premise as the first film. A young college student who is 'tapped' to become one of the elite of the elite, a problem crops up and there is a lot of running in fear for the life of our hero.This installment offers up more sexual energy and more likable (and well played )dislikable characters, a few minor changes in casting could have been made. For instance the abundance of overly WASPish pretty boys. Without debating how ethnically diverse secret societies are, I'm sure all the younger members are not all pretty boys.The story, what little of it was there, does turn the previous movie on it's ear, sort of. Which would have been more refreshing had it had the sence of suspense and wonder of the original and excluded the somewhat rushed-wanna-be-a-cool-plot-twist-but-wasn't ending. Make no mistake though, I am not saying that the first one had a lot of suspense, it just seemed to have more.Unfortunately the performances of the young actors could not bring this movie to life. All in all, I would recommend it if you are not looking for much depth or story.If you're looking for a movie to satisfy look for something else. I would give it a 3 out of 10.

As far as sequels go, it is par for the course. Here they had a great plot, and excellent possiblities but I think they could have taken it farther. There are tie-ins with the first and takes the conspiracy deeper. It's always good to see a lone wolf rise up and rage against the machine. Good times.
