Were you a fan of the twist?
That wasn't a twist
@@ComicConScott yes it was. Maybe not as big of a twist as were used to for Night. But the fact that his wife was the one that trapped him sure was a twist.
There are better dances. Chubby Checker was cool.
@@Looper that was a promotional movie of the directors daughter. and the ending suck. imagine as a serial killer but in the end you got outsmarted by an NPC wife.
What twist?
The twist was he trapped us into watching his daughter do a concert for an hour.
bingo!
@@JacobJohnson-lh4gxdo you know what he & her mean. 😂
M. Night is promoting his daughter's singing career. Smart guy. His movie, not so good. One trick pony never learns.
Nice copy and paste to get likes pathetic
Nice copy and paste to get likes pathetic
So, the twist is...
There is no twist? 😢
Thought the same thing. This video says he did small twists because he couldn't help himself, as if not every other movie has twists.
The twist was that Shamalan was in the movie 😂
there was a twist but not a shoking "what a twist")
The twist was his wife knew something about him and she told the cops that he is going in concert
Yeha I noticed the lack of twists with Lady in the Water
I thought the twist was going to be that his daughter was the true killer and he just loved her enough to try to cover for her... not that it was just a framing device to give M's daughter an hour long concert and for her to be the hero...
Yea… that was pulled off in Mr. Brooks.
that’s EXACTLY WHAT MY THEORY WAS. It would’ve fit so much better thematically because fatherhood was a running concept throughout the movie.
I concur
I got censored by TH-cam for posting in another comment that his daughter is a horrible actor, and he made her into a girl boss at the end. TH-cam hates the truth.
@@MoneyManHolmes tbh I thought she gave the best performance. Josh Hartnett’s was terrible tho.
Trapping 30,000 women and teenage girls in a stadium with a serial killer based on a tip with no idea of what the killer looks like is peak stupidity.
It's not true. Even from the trailer it was clear that they had a rough but not exact idea of what he looked like based on visuals.Just watch a movie before jumping to strong conclusions)
@@Str52849he means they could also get hurt or killed & that’s what happened
@@Str52849 if her wife wants him to get caught why not give a description?or name? and if you’re a serial killer and got outsmarted by a singer and an NPC wife. its shocking how he got 12 kills.
@@Str52849 Even though they did indeed have a rough idea of what he looked like, there is still no way in hell the police would organize a trap that could cause massive civilian injury and or deaths like this. Let alone involve multiple staff members and even a freaking pop star.
It's an alright movie IMO but it damn sure requires plenty of suspended disbelief because the ridiculous trap is not the only illogical thing about it
They knew what he looked like. The older woman that plays the FBI agent is messing with him the entire time, it’s a deliberate game of cat and mouse.
Trap had a really strong setup (no pun intended). But it needed just a wee bit more brainstorming to further the plot. The movie didn’t know where to go. The first half, where the movie was restricted inside the concert was amazing! The moment the story shifts outside, there is no trap! The concert was supposed to be a trap to catch Cooper, the moment he’s out he has won! If only they could’ve included the people inside the concert to help the fbi or maybe included some backstory of Cooper’s victim to the plot and still made him win. Then the movie would’ve really taken off!
Post-concert sequence was terrible. I wonder if they reshot the ending or something. It just didn’t fit in at all. I wish they had just quickly wrapped it up about 3 minutes after he escaped in the limo.
Anyone else leave the movie feeling that Cooper is a new villain in the Unbreakable universe?
If so, who is the hero? “Glass” seemed to be end of that idea (or have I forgotten something?).
Yup!!! Split vs trap
Has to be. Dude is strong both mentally and physically. Legit an evil mastermind. And he’s able to withstand being drugged and tased.
YES!! Finally others are seeing this theory. Without spoiling, its the only logical explanation for everything he gets away with- it has to be a special ability.
@@user-uh2vpExactly
A better twist would have been that he wasn't actually the Butcher, but just another random serial killer, but was afraid that as the police were searching, he'd get caught in the same web. Then he figures out who the real Butcher is, and blackmails him to help him escape. The butcher reluctantly agrees, but lays his own trap, where Josh ends up taking the fall, and the butcher escapes kidnapping his daughter. grim ending but hell ya.
If Shyamalan didn't have George Lucas-esque power, control and pretension, something like that could have happened. Or heck, even this version would have been polished up and fine-tuned to a point that would have put it up there with his first Big 3. (For me it wasn't Glass or Happening awful. A close third behind The Village and LiTW.) Unfortunately, he's shielded from constructive criticism or collaboration. Imagine if someone said, "You know all these parts where you think it's funny? It's not. Or here where the merchandise guy is spilling every secret? Don't. And hire a great actress that can sing. Your daughter can write the music. But not star."
Legit what I thought would happen not walking in I didn’t think the killer would be right in front of you like that
That would have been so cool.
You’re a sick individual
This would have been so much better.
The ending became silly with him always escaping
Yea I kinda felt that way too
Agreed
I think it’s part of the unbreakable/glass/split world. The movie is called trap and his superpower is the ability to escape any trap
@@ernestp.worrell8871this is connected to glass. I believe the tattoo on his wrist was kinda identical to the shooters in glass who had the same tattoo in the same spot.
It's his superpower)
Haven’t see the film but i think a cool twist would be if Josh Harnett was indeed a serial killer (but not this Butcher killer) so then he takes down the Butcher killer and looks like a hero (while he is in fact still a serial killer himself) 🤷♂️
That's too similar to Don't Breathe
@@rejachemno I mean- not all that similar. The three mains in DB were not serial killers and they broke into the man's house while Trap takes place at a concert. There are similarities sure but not enough to make it too similar. And even if some did find it too similar, that doesn't automatically mean a bad piece of media. Similarities like that happen all the time. Scrubs/Grey's Anatomy, Psych/The Mentalist, Armageddon/Deep Impact, Volcano/Dante's Peak, The Prestige/The Illusionist 🤷🏼♀
Oh I like that
@@dianamcmahon51510 thank you
@@MultiNotAnti thank you
The twist was that we needed to sit through the concert as well
stop posting false memes)
@@Str52849 huh?
We knew Cooper was the killer from the commercials. The biggest issue is that the wife thinks he might be the killer, but doesn't decide to give a picture of him to the cops. Something that would have made it easier to catch him using plains clothes officers instead of stuffing the arena full of police and FBI agents with full battle rattle.
Full battle rattle? You must be military brother
The wife was hoping he wasn’t the Butcher the whole time, only to realize later that her hunch was right
The twist is he gave way too much time to his daughter, had no business in the story after they left the concert
Yes made it a lil cheesy
Not agree witj you(( Their first confrontation of ideas with Lady Raven was shown when he pitted himself against everyone who was able to forgive and turn on their phone flashlights. In the future, he comes closer and closer to her. So just have to watch the film closely with the recognition that your internal logic may not coincide with the logic of the film)
@@Str52849 point is she’s a talented musician but a shit actor that had no business in the scenes after the concert, movie falls a part trying to convince us what an amazing woman she is
I thought she was great
The twist was he was the killer. And marketing should never given away this in the trailers. Audiences should have gone in thinking Josh was the hero. Then bam -- he's the bad guy? Imagine starting the movie and having all your preconceived notions thrown out in 15mins. Big, big miss by marketing.
underrated comment
My sentiments exactly
Makes no sense. The whole plot of the film is that he's trapped by the police and trying to escape. If the trailer doesn't show that he's the killer then what is it going to show? The point of a trailer is to give the audience an idea of what to expect from the movie. How are you going to show him evading the cops like that, looking for a way out and not have the audience be suspicious that he's the bad guy?
The trailer should have made us believe that protagonist is locked in yhe concert with a killer
He either escape or face him@@Adam-ef9nk
SPOILER ALERT: the premise is dumb as h*ll. If the mom/wife suspected he was the killer and collaborated with the FBI on a sting operation, why would a loving mom in essence let her teen daughter go to this concert with him with a sting operation where he could freak out and is liable to do anything to evade being apprehended like take the daughter hostage? So you use your own daughter as bait, not to mention you endanger the lives of 20,000 concertgoers. Great writing lol
She didn't know for sure that he was the butcher and also didn't know the sting operation was happening. All she did was leave the receipt and call the police. She didn't know where it went.
You totally forget that he loves his family despite chopping people as a hobby.
Setting up a trap in a concert is ridiculous. There was LITERALLY zero reason to do it. Trap him at his job or home or out taking a walk. They had the receipt, his wife, and the safe house.
She didn’t work with the fbi lol she did it anonymously thinking that he could possible be the killer. She didn’t want him to be the killer she hoped it wasn’t true. So she continued to live her life as if he wasn’t the killer and threat is set in reality you have zero understanding of human behavior and emotions. People will do crazy things that those from the outside won’t understand but make complete sense to them. Also it’s a movie not set in reality because if it was set in reality then it would of been over in 10 min which makes for a boring movie. Entertainment isn’t set in reality it’s just draws from it and is inspired by it. Stop thinking to much into shit and just learn to enjoy stuff you’ll be much happier but you won’t you’ll take offense to this and get all butt hurt I bet you just so much fun to be around always breaking down stuff and questioning everything ruining the enjoy,ent for everyone else.
alot of the actions of everyone around him basically was because the plot needed it to happen. it wasn't natural. "the story needed this to happen" and therefore it happened.
I wouldn't be suprised if it takes place in the same universe as split ,unbreakable etc.. he shows amazing strength when the cops take him down, tazed twice, drugged and still is able to unleash a force to take down an officer and almost crush with his hands. Also in the video footage of the abduction, he pulls his victim in the van with unhuman strength.
I'm just curious if Trap is in the same universe as Unbreakable since Cooper shows a heightened endurance from taser guns and heightened strength when he grabbed Spencer using one arm.
The real twist is when I thought I just farted in the theater but it started running down my leg.
Bro.. 💀
Physiological humor. I appreciate it.
Ahh explosive diarrhea. Brings me to the past
OOH HELL NAA MAN
😂
After he survives the tasers, I’m convinced dude is part of the Unbreakable universe.
Cooper acts like the killer straight away. Then he is the killer. Whoa! Crazy twist.
That wasn’t the twist though
That wasn't a twist. That was the story.
My thoughts while watching:
- ok this a pretty cool concept
- catchy song, but why’s it playing so long?
- entertaining so far; Josh has become a great actor
- another full song? Ok, sure..
- can’t really see what it’s building towards, but I’m excited for a twist!
- oh.. we’re out of the venue now, this has lost some appeal
- the wife is gonna be in on it, right
- right..?
- huh.. underwhelming but I guess it’s just a bit of character building for the “Glass/Split” universe
- I guess not.. 4/10, started really well but ultimately finished extremely underwhelmed and missed a ton of great opportunities.
The twist was Cooper outing himself to Lady Raven and forcing her hand, instead of trying to stealthily escape the concert.
A better version of the story should’ve been having Josh Harnett play different characters, all trying to escape the concert because they think it’s for them and have every character up until the last being unsuccessful/a red herring and the antics to escaping escalating to an escape.
Not bad
Immaculate you should be the writer
The twist should be like his wife should be the butcher . Mom controls the butcher in the same way that is why he has two split personalities.
the wife knows about this and then controls his husband and goes on with the killing spree with the help of his husband . But the husband doesn't want to reveal his wife's identity as a serial killer if he revealed Riley's life will be spoiled so he accepts as butcher himself and gets surrender
Wait, there was a twist?
No 😂😂
Biggest twist was that the movie was going on further than what trailers had been showing, which was kind of nice cause now it felt like the film wasn’t spoiled through trailers for change
A better twist would have been if it was an identical brother or someone who just happened to look almost the same as Cooper
I hated this movie's trailer. The idea that the FBI has setup a sting to capture one of their top ten most wanted, only to allow the chance at some dumb merch vendor to just ruin the whole thing by blabbing to some rando (who, uh oh, just happens to b the guy they're looking for) is so so so stupid...
There's no way the FBI would not have replaced the event staff with all of their own people...
No... way...
I’ll always be an M Night fan. Whatever movie he puts out, I’m going to see it
Even Last Bender?
@@GarredHATES no comment
sorry?
Same
Same they're not always super great but I'm always intrigued to see what he's going to come up with next
He went to a concert and was able to immediately find a parking spot, near the arena.
Ending should have been Cooper hugging his daughter, and she slips him the wheel spoke, and he slips her a usb drive
We re-play the scene of the mom asking the detective what the early signs of Cooper’s insanity were, and she repeats that the signs may have been visible in early childhood but never again after.
We then see repeated shots of Riley acting strange during earlier moments of the concert, and show flashbacks of her acting out at school, threatening and scaring the “bully” girl and showing there is more meaning to that sub-plot.
We then see Cooper’s daughter finding all of her father’s remaining safehouses on a computer via the thumb drive.
One is highlighted over the others.
We splice the ending of him getting free of his chains with seeing the daughter open a door to one of the safehouses, where the mom is waiting with a woman tied up in a chair.
Mom turns the chair to reveal Lady Raven, tied up and crying. And we cut to Cooper laughing like he does at the very end.
Does Shyamalan realize just about every concert in existence including T Swift DOESN'T begin and end during the day time lmao wtf
It’s literally explained in the film why that is. Do you just watch movies with your eyes and ears closed and then go home and complain? They clearly explained the show sold out so quickly, they added another show the next day. Which happens quite frequently, including Taylor swift.
Take this as a reason to shut up and actually watch the movie.
@@BaronVonBielski the dude doesn't even do research in how concerts operate, the halls completely filled while the headliner is playing, no security detail, bodyguards etc, yeah that dont happen, even double booked concerts in the day don't happen at 1pm lmao, it was also a shit movie anyways that uses "Shyamalan logic" as an excuse for people not acting like real people would in those given situations, what a joke 😆
@@BaronVonBielskiIt's because you haven't watched this movie. Everything was explained in the film.
@@TrueMithrandirehm Dude are you okay? ... That was a TRAP CONCERT 😅 Not a REAL concert
When they revealed the somewhat "twist" in the trailer (him being the serial killer) I thought there would be a bigger twist. But nah 😂
The twist is, that there is no twist, but we're all expecting a twist the whole time.
It does have a twist... the fact his wife snitched him out is the twist.. the trap was the concert but they set a second trap at his house.. just in case.. thats the twist. Nothing crazy.. but a twist none the less
If the wife was right at the crime scene, she would have known he’s a murderer, so why not just call the police instead of just leaving the concert receipt?
I see many people didnt get the point of a movie. Point was looking from a perspective of a killer and will he or not escape and how. I loved the movie!
Once again the trailer spoiled the fun. If we had found out he was the killer while watching the movie would have been much more exciting
Makes no sense. The whole plot of the film is that he's trapped by the police and trying to escape. If the trailer doesn't show that he's the killer then what is it going to show? The point of a trailer is to give the audience an idea of what to expect from the movie. How are you going to show him evading the cops like that, looking for a way out and not have the audience be suspicious that he's the bad guy?
No. I think the trailer the way it was made me want to watch it
I didn't come up with this but totally agree. Better ending would've had Cole Sear got the information from one of Cooper's previous kills. Throw Haley Joel Osment in as the mid-credit scene and you have a classic on your hands.
My top five favorite M. Night Shyamalan movies are the Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, Signs, Split and Glass. My honorable mentions are Old and Trap. ❤❤❤❤
You need to watch "Devil". It has an unpredictable twist. You won't see it coming.
The Village has the twist ending of all twist endings.
@@nelcatjaryes! Very good movie! M. Night wrote that movie but don’t think directed it. Either way it’s good.
Almost the same, me put both Glass and Trap on 5th position, because I suppose it still Unbreakable universe)
@@nelcatjar Yes, he wrote script for "Devil"
The twist is there’s 2 serial killers there and the other gets got and ours in our Mandela verse escapes Scottfree
The Mandela effect is absolutely real. But you still need to take your meds.
I enjoyed it for the most part, just thought it dragged on a bit with Houdini escapes, just made it a lil silly
I thought the twist was going to be.. once they had the famous singer in the house, the whole family adopts her and changes her look so nobody would recognize her because they are all crazy and in on it all along.
The only plot twist i saw was his wife ratted him out to the police
I saw somewhere online that M had written a direct sequel to Signs and has a script done and ready to film. I really really hope we end up getting a continuation of the first film and that it’s done right. Signs is considered one of the best films ever made and if done right can cement M Knight as one of the most iconic filmmakers of his generation
This time rhe aliens are afraid of the sun, and come to earth to escape.
he is already cemented as one of the worst. It will take a lot more than signs 2 to undo that.
Easy to nitpick the movie, but it was fun and refreshingly different from the typical movie.
You are very right
Glad to have this person doing the breakdown. The new guy from what I think is Screen Rant is ok but I prefer this one.
The movie’s “twists” aren’t as massive as the Sixth Sense. The twist isn’t “it was X the whole time.” The whole idea that he’s the killer is made extremely clear from the start.
This is just ADS for Shyamalan's daughter🤦♂️ and that's the trap😂
😂
So he buys the ticket to a concert that is ONLY setup last minute as a trap to catch him based on an anonymous tip? Josh is great, but the story is full of nonsense (even after a fair amount of suspension of disbelief...)
I really enjoyed the fact that movie was filmed from the killers point of view and made the viewer root for the bad guy.
Although I have to say a music star like Lady Raven would never be as pushy to the real butcher and most of all she would have never been allowed to leave the event center without personal security guards .
The twist was, as he said several times, that HE was in control and set traps for us in thinking what things meant and where they would lead so he didn’t do any of them
Not a bad movie .. Just was hoping for more of an M N ight twist.. Like his wife was in on it or something ...
Here's what another twist comes in if you notice the colors in the film where red and white Cooper was in red lady Raven was in white it represented Good and Evil Cooper with evil lady Raven was good so then when the time came for him to escape and he threatened her she reversed it back at him and he didn't even see that coming so basically she was the opposite of him
And this movie was not to promote her music career if anybody was paying attention to the interviews she says she only wrote the songs for the movie she had no intention of being in it her father suggested she should be the performer of the film and these are all original songs and not a copy of any other artists all of the music film belongs to the studio so she can't perform none of these songs outside of the Trap movie promotion because these songs belongs to the studio that the movie is produced by they own the rights to it
And if you was paying attention she has worked behind the scenes on his movies before and she was a singer long before this movie even happened and she already had a good night with career long before this even started the reason why people are pissed off is because all their theories were wrong and the fact that the movie didn't get ruin like they wanted now they bashing it
And if you notice it wasn't just based on the whole entire concert that she was performing because if it was she would be in the movie A lot more than she was in it less
I actually thought he was a butcher trying to catch another bigger butcher or something like that 😂 only to make himself look like a hero at the end. Idk, Shyamalan movies always look boring at the end.
It’s weird how everyone in the comments is a movie plot expert, yet I’m not familiar with any of their movies.
Nobody is talking about the footage of him kidnapping Sebastian. No human could snatch another human and shut the door that quick. This has to be related to split and if it’s not later revealed in another movie that’s dumb as fuck
It definitely is and they also honed on the broken metal bar Lady Raven snapped off. They’re both Supers.
"All that is there is a table and chair." "Yeah I know that's when I knew you were messed up."
It would have been better if Bruce Willis shows up at the end.
Did anyone notice a digital mistake on Josh Hartnett‘s face when he sat down while confronting his wife? There seemed to be some sort of Matt over the right side of his face that keyed his face and I could see the wall behind him. I think it was there for maybe 10 seconds over a couple of shots. was I just seeing things?
Wow, love it! It totally worked because as I was watching I was having very conflicting feelings about the fact that I wanted him to succeed and escape the police... 😅
The twist should’ve been we find out his daughter is just like him. Maybe that’s why the girls don’t want to be friends with her any more. Maybe they found out she was different at a sleep over or something
He could have just walked out at the end of the concert and been home with his feet up. They didn't know what he looked like.
The funny thing for me is I accidentally skipped the part where he checks his victim in the toilet room through his phone, so I didn't know he was the Butcher immediately. It made me root for him throughout the concert, but I still had doubts until his private conversation with Lady Raven. I knew that I was watching the film on the perspective of a killer.
perhaps some may seem to ignore that the "PLOT TWIST" in this movie that made me..."ahh?! ok that's why the police had a hint the butcher "attending" the concert moment"... is that it's actually the butcher's wife was actually involved right from the beginning and was the initiator of the "TRAP"
I DON'T MIND AT ALL M.Night did a privilege to picked his own daughter to played in his own movie.
But I DO MIND when her screen time is too much, where the times can be used for showing more tricks from Butcher in how he killing people, how he lure the victims, how he lives a double live, how Josh Harnett acts switching character, how's Butcher past trauma.
Shame, this movie has so much potential especially for a long comeback actor like Josh Harnett.
The daughter should've been the killer. He should've been the cleaner.
At some point I thought the rest of the family were also involved and then tricked the pop star into the killer's trap 😅😅😅😅
When I watched the trailer, I thought the twist would be he wasn’t the one they were targeting, but he would think he was ending up being face to face with the real one being the twist where he’s used as a double etc
Naw, it wasn’t the cleaning fluid that tipped her off. She says it’s when she saw him lie so effortlessly to someone. That made her realize he could be someone dangerous. She also knew he wouldn’t hurt Riley or their son because his doting dad persona was a real one.
This might still be the twist because it is set up for a sequel. Maybe the daughter handed him the spoke. We find out that the daughter would lure the young man to a room where the father would then trap them.
The twist is that Shyamalan still gets people to watch his cinematic catastrophes.
A good twist would have been that when revealing himself to raven, she too reveals herself as a serial killer. OR, his wife was also a serial killer.
When raven was describing the butcher to his family, i got the vibes she was tipping him off with all the ways he was a suspect.
I dont think you can expect a 6th sense/ the village twist from him anymore.
Happy I missed this.
If the wife was working with the FBI, why did they need to set up the concert fiasco and pull in every police officer from 10 neighboring states?
I don’t know if it’s a great movie, but you won’t be bored watching this.
boring movie. he didnt kill anyone in the movie.and the screentime of the singer was forced..its like they made this movie to give the singer a debut to her acting career.
Tbh I dont get the point of showing him unlocking his handcuffs. He is a serial killer, and when getting to the police station, will be greeted by a group of likely armed guards. Even if he were able to get one or two of them, he would still be either injured and captured or gunned down.
So the wife thinks her husband is a serial killer. Instead of having police take him in for questioning, they let him take his daughter to a public event, putting everyone at the concert in danger.
I thought the trap was locking everyone in the stadium while a serial killer goes crazy. Josh is the hero.
This is a knight really stopping doing twist and really easy plot to follow.I do think it was copper was trapped all along . The cage bird references. It him escaping his old life.
Trap is okay.
I don't know why you think he will "likely escape police custody". He's in the back of the police van, locked from the outside being followed by three other SWAT vehicles. I guess they will open the door and he will just magically disappear.
I was thoroughly entertained 🔥
The problem with an M. Night Shyamalan movie is. . .HIS FIRST MOVIE WAS A MASTERPIECE! With that said, "Trap" was far from a failure. IMO, the top 3 things about the movie were, 1. discovering Saleka Night Shyamalan! I'm buying that music! I loved every single song she sang; 2. the return of Josh Hartnett! Was that supposed to be a dad bod when he took his shirt off? Josh is like almost 50 years old. He could give Channing Tatum a run for his money as the next Magic Mike! 3. I love surprise casting. It was a hoot seeing Hayley Mills. As an African American, Sonya Massey shown being murdered by a cop in her own kitchen after calling the police to her home because she thought an intruder was outside her house, was devastating to watch. So, in the movie, when a serial killer is tased by 4 different cops, allowed to fiddle with a bicycle, then put in the back of a police van ALONE. . .I just thought. . .must be nice to have white privilege. Anyway, I digress. I'm glad that I saw it. It's worth the price of admission. I look forward to the next M. Night Shyamalan movie!
If you can’t differentiate between a Hollywood movie and real life then you need to seek professional help.
@@burntre1 and did your mom get that help after you told her that?
@@karenayers6793 I didn’t need to tell her that as she isn’t a mor-on like yourself.
@ I didn’t need to tell her that as she isn’t deluded like yourself.
@@burntre1 Yeah, if she can come to terms with the fact that you'll never make her a grandma, then I'm sure she knows that Josh Hartnett is not really a serial killer.
Idk for some reason I feel like Josh kind of gives me a "human Michael Meyers" vibe because he kept escaping/ surviving. And maybe also because he was in H20, and he would technically be Michael's nephew. Shyamalan could def spin into that somehow if he got the rights &/or did a second film.
I enjoyed the game more then I was expecting, having seen the trailer I thought okay I already know the full film, yet the movie kept me watching and I just wanted to see how he would get out. Was also expecting the stand guy to be killed. Overall as said enjoyed the movie and wouldn't mind Trap 2 in how he escapes, but that would be a hard script to write.
How were they going to catch him if they didn’t know what he looked like?
Josh killed the role but that movie was flawed from start to finish.
The twist: The whole movie was to give his daughter a career boost.
Why the two movies mixed in to one, M. Night Shamalamadingdong?
"No one would watch a movie about my daughter otherwise and she would, _GASP!,_ have to earn her own success." - M. Night Shitthebedagain
Seems like the twist is that m.night is trying to erase the expectation of a twist.
My top 5 M. Night Shyamalan films:
Honorable Mention: The Visit
Old
The Village
Signs
Devil
The Sixth Sense
Old was stupid as dogs balls
He didn't direct Devil? Only producer.
The village was horrible
@@shaysworld6249 Not in my opinion.
Shyamalan's movies are supposed to make children mental like the Sixth Sense did for the security state and Trap is like that too. Concerts are about fanaticism and violence and such so they can have an excuse to use more security on us as things get more chaotic. They're at a concert in the movie with a girl as they target kids for violence and securitization and prison. And thats why theres a murderer and the government security agencies in the movie Trap. Thats why his movies usually suck hes probably just an agent. Disney is a part of it. They do the same thing with schools and school shootings. They MAKE it all mental and they add security to get control of everyone.
He left proof of the concert ticket at his last crime scene? I did see the movie and still don’t understand that! How many concert venues still use paper tickets?? Everything is over the phone now
There was no twist. This was pretty straightforward and aligned with the implications the trailer gave us. Not a bad movie but nothing to gripping. Nothing like the Sixth Sense or his unbrrakable/split/Glass movies. This is a “wait for streaming” movie for sure.
The concert concept did t really add anything to the story. It felt like it was a movie intended to showcase M’s daughter’s singing career and the Butcher story as the background story. If anything, the music was more a distraction.
This one is a miss although I love that Josh H is in it. His grinning blank eyes were unsettling
could someone explain to me why revel himself so easily to lady raven ? this point doesn't make any sense to me
I would like to see this movie, but by the trailer and this video, the premise of trying to capture a serial killer in concert is not realistic. They would be putting the public in harms away; he has a better chance sneaking by in that large of a crowd, and what would it cost the police to pull this off
It's that's smart. I think a bunch of us were hoping he was innocent because we thought that was the twist. Like maybe the wife was actually the butcher. It showed us that we can we obtuse towards serial killers even if we have live footage of it.
I only gave up on him being innocent after the wife confessed to hide the piece of the ticket to get him caught.
The movie imitates life. The suburbs are literally Ground Zero for serial killers.
Loving the quentin tarantino cameo scene!!!
They will have a Prequel
