Where i am currently

I just got tickets for tomorrow because all three theaters here were sold out too. So, no spoilers!

Lol what did you think?

Meh. I didn’t know anything in-depth before going to see it and I’m glad I was relatively ignorant. It seemed like a very well-done psychological suspense drama but not totally a horror movie. It lacked the action I thought would be there. I mean, without giving anything away, she did fulfill the trope of the female tripping and hurting herself (over couches 😫) so as to appear defenseless. \*yawn\*  Anyway, the dining table scene kinda came out of nowhere and without understanding still life, etc, I couldn’t make heads or tails of the “villains.” So, it was kinda confusing but still a very stand-alone, entertaining film overall. I particularly enjoyed the first half but, again, I can’t decide whether her smirk (people keep calling it a smile) freaks me out. Did she want to stay? Did she want to become a part of that world and her conquering the pirate come from instinct alone? The end is disturbing to say the least and so I left feeling conflicted and sad. Not scared. Is that good?

For sure totally agree, also Clark's seemingly switch up from lost, victim in the backrooms to suddenly, a villain, confused me and they never really explained if it was clark or a mimic. That kinda frustrated me cos I feel like we missed some important context to understand his drastic character development.  And totally agree, her tripping on the couch and seemingly becoming practically disabled as a result seemed a bit... On the nose as far as horror chases go. But I loved when she had to traverse that staircase that was suspended between the many floors of rooms, that scene made me dizzy, the idea of having to crawl out on a narrow stair case to a hatch in the ceiling reminded me of my fear of heights.. and I swear I've had similar dreams where I was struggling to climb up either a steep stair case,or a fire escape with no railings high above a city.

Boycott all movies
