Los Angeles Times Kevin Thomas
Suspenseful entertainment -- but it's also a suitably chilling cautionary tale.
Read Full Review >Variety Derek Elley
A no-holds-barred, thoroughly generic follow-up to the medical horror-chiller that wowed German wickets in 2000.
Read Full Review >LA Weekly Hazel-Dawn Dumpert
German filmmaker Stefan Ruzowitzky sticks to the formula that made his 2000 thriller Anatomie a German hit, offering up a whos who of young German stars and plunging them into hot-and-cold color schemes, freewheeling camera work and diabolical master-race conspiracies. If Ruzowitzky were as good a storyteller as he is a stylist, hed have something.
Read Full Review >The Hollywood Reporter Kirk Honeycutt
Where the first film was something of a teen horror film, the follow-up, again from writer-director Stefan Ruzowitzky, is more of an unintentional comedy.
Read Full Review >TV Guide Robert Pardi
Ruzowitzky concentrates on delivering on sporadic scares at the expense of figuring out how to make individual scenes coalesce into a coherent chiller about medical megalomania.

Leif gave it a 7:
I liked this movie - not as much as the first anatomy, though. I disagree that the movie is uninventionally funny - Was it funny? sure, I thought so. I don't think that in a wierd, strange movie like this it is easy to judge if the fun is interntional or not. I liked both anatomy 1 and anatomy 2 for being wierd, chilli, funny and total non-sense.
