    I was so surprised at how fast this movie went by. For an hour fifty min film where it's almost all dialog, as you pointed out, not once did I feel the run time. Typically I'm checking my watch at the hour mark of most movies 😅 I also love how much they leave up to interpretation, since that was a major point in the actual narrative

    Thank you for what you brought up at 3:15. I wanted to see this movie with my mom who has a very close relationship with God, I was just worried if it attacked or mocked religion. But considering it sort of challenges the idea of faith instead, that's a much more interesting concept. Great review!

    I saw this tonight and I loved it!! Grant was phenomenal. It was very suspenseful, good tension, intellectually stimulating, philosophical, cerebral, creepy, and thought provoking. Third act was surprising and very well written. Very unique script and excellent dialogue that keeps you engaged. We need Hugh in more suspense, thriller, and horror.

      Demon Knight was my favorite movie as a kid. I always wished we could have gotten a demon knight series. Only HBO could have done it right. What if demons werent the only beings who wanted the key?
      I envisioned a series like supernatural but less made for tv, and more dark and graphic like game of thrones or the sopranos. And I also thought it would have been cool to have different demon knights throughout the run. Just kill them off when the viewer totally didnt expect it. Maybe its still possible who know.

    @alteredendeavor 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    *spoilers* You may have missed the point of the ending. It's left up to our interpretation. If you believe her friend can come back to life in order to fulfill what she did at the end, it's playing with the audience on the faith aspect. You have to make a leap to accept the idea that actually happened. In my eyes the ending was her dying as laid out by the prophet earlier in the film. Her Cell phone doesn't have service despite being outside and she hallucinates the butterfly which was referenced a few times earlier.

    The film is most definitely OVER-HYPED! The stupidity of the characters was difficult to stomach, and the storyline was absolute thrash! Keep your expectations grounded, as most of the reviews are based on fanaticism.

    • @MovieFiles
      @MovieFiles  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Why must people like you call others names or claim them to be something just because they like something you didn’t. Can people not just like a film because of the acting or storytelling? How would you like it if someone called you a name or something that you’re not because you enjoy a film or show? You don’t have to like the film and that’s fine but calling people names isn’t ok. Do better.
