Trap

I found it to be a well-crafted film. The cinematography was commendable, with visually engaging scenes that were thoughtfully composed. M. Night Shyamalan's direction was solid, delivering a coherent narrative while showcasing his daughter's musical talent on stage, a personal touch that added depth to the project. The score complemented the film effectively, enhancing the overall atmosphere. While not groundbreaking, the film's execution was undeniably competent, making it a noteworthy addition to Shyamalan's body of work.

What a great movie. Not a single moment in this movie was boring. Nowadays it's really rare to make movie so interesting and also clean from woke propaganda. Definitely deserves high ratings from me.

Truly Dreadful. I didn't realise that the main theme of this film was explicit nepotism until I saw that Shamyamalan cast his own daughter as the female lead / singer / star in a somewhat vain attempt to launch or boost her career. But apart from that, this film just does not make sense. At all. Ever. The dude who spills the beans (no spoiler as it's in the trailer) .. I mean .. how on earth does someone have to be that unaware ?? Also, just the actions and words of each character don't ever add up to what they would do or say in a similar (lol) situation. Doesn't anyone ever push back in the writer's room and say "listen, the character x has just discovered ... and the first thing we've written they do is ...???!". Let's just take a tiny moment in the concert. At one point, a guest singer comes up in the middle of the floor on a lift RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FLOOR CROWD ! And they leave the hole just .. literally ... gaping for anyone to fall into etc. Did any of the writers actually ever go to a concert before or are they always in the back VIP section ? Anyway, enough from me. Like and subscribe (joke) for more reviews.
