Skammerens Datter II: Slangens Gave (2019), directed by Ask Hasselbalch , is a fantasy adventure that continues the story of Dina, a young girl with the magical ability to see people's deepest shame. While some reviewers from Berlingske praised its expanded scope and character depth, others found it to be a "watered-down" sequel compared to the 2015 original. Plot and Narrative Choices
The recasting of Drakan was criticized by some as failing to capture the menace of the original actor.
The story leans harder into its "YA/PG" roots, focusing on two parallel coming-of-age journeys: Dina’s struggle with her father's legacy and Nico's growth into a hero.
Critics noted the plot felt split and "indecisive," with Dina’s storyline separate from the prisoners for much of the 90-minute runtime. Production and Technical Quality
