Movie Rating

Actually giving it a 4.5/5, well for this rating a 9.5/10

This movie nailed the suspense of what you can't see can hurt you. I loved this movie, even though I jumped, and got scared a bunch (shush I'm not a huge horror person okay geez) but my scared ass enjoyed this movie, and I'll definitely watch it again.

There's not too much to complain, just one major flaw so I'll start with that. The plot; it was good, except some major holes that could have been filled with all the baloney they were making to extend that plot point to keep it till later in the narrative.

Okay things I loved... Everything else! Lol the music was suspenseful, and sucked me into the craziness on the screen. It took me a bit to feel connected to our main characters, but once I did, I was all in. I jumped, a lot, but not just because of the couple jump scares, but because of the built suspense, and the beautiful camera pans of nothing.

But in the long run, though the plot does subtract final points, this is definitely a movie I will watch again, and you should go see it in theaters before it disappears.

I had such high hopes for this film. I didn't necessarily think it was bad, but it's one of those movies where the trailer really makes it seem so much better than it actually is. You know the ones. I love Winston Duke in this, I think he really shines - especially in contrast with his role in Black Panther as M'Baku.

As much as I didn't really LOVE this film, I am hoping there will be a sequel, especially after the ending of this one left it open for one. I really like the cast they chose, the dynamic is really cool. I think my biggest problem with this film is the pacing. Some parts move very slowly and other parts feel so quick. I also didn't really understand the roles of the Feds they had. Like I get it in the context of the film, but it felt unnecessary to actually have them named and have lines and that whole thing. Maybe that's just me though.

Overall, I think it's a relatively decent film. Definitely not going to win any Academy Awards or probably any recognition from the film world, but it's still a good watch. At least to say you did, if not to say you like it.
