Thoughts
This movie could definitely have used a 'previously on' segment, because although I could remember flashes of the first Favor, I couldn't quite remember how it ended to know where our characters were picking up from. But once it got going, this was a pretty good film. Stylish and twisty, Blake doing her best psychopath and scrappy Anna investigating everything - sometimes more by luck than judgement. Just a bit of fun, really, and interesting that they've set it up for the sequel (still think Dante might come back!).
Rating: 4 / 5
