    I feel like Shyamalan has great ideas but his execution is hit or miss. Maybe if he stuck more closely to the book, the movie would have been better.

      I want to add some nuance and say that although the movie wasn't amazing, I'm glad he chose to end the movie the way he did.
      It completes a doomsday cabin trifecta.
      Cabin In The Woods shows what happens when they don't complete the ritual.
      Knock at the Cabin shows what happens when they do complete the ritual.
      The novel leaves it ambiguous in a novelly way.

    I saw this in the movie theater today with my & daughter. Wasn’t aware of the book, but I had a feeling and told my lovely family no thanks to seeing a gay couple killed off. You put us on the big screen, which is rare, and we’re killed off. However, decided to give it a chance. In the ending the entire theater was quiet. We all ask ourselves what did we just watch. It was really messed up in the end how population was chilling at the diner. I told my wife that if that was us we’re taking a chance and not sacrificing ourselves, because it is still a what if.

    A great Shyamalan movie, which I've watched 3 or 4 times, is "Devil" (the group trapped in the elevator). The caveat to that movie is he wrote it, but did not direct it.

Why not keep it the same until the last possible moment when the father's decide to sacrifice each other which revives Wen who goes off with the last surviving woman into an uncertain future. This sucks! This was a great video, guys, and I look forward to more!

    Here’s my issue I didn’t feel the severity of them needing to die every time the family said no , like they made it seem like they only had visions and no one clearly spoke to them or anything they all said they don’t quite understand so it’s like how u just know how necessary it is for u to put on hang white head cover and die like it just didn’t connect with me

    I wish they would have shown the dark creatures that they hinted a couple times (drawings in the opening credits and one of the dads thinking he saw one of them in the mirror). M. Night could have made it much creepier if he handled it like in Signs, and if these creatures were the last part of the apocalypse (darkness descends upon humanity). I wish they would have shown that just a bit before one of them sacrificed the other and stopped it.

    A real twist ending was just lettin all four of the strangers die and then it’s revealed that they literally were all delusional. That no one is worth stopping the apocalypse. The book did a better job at trying to define what it meant to end the word. Either the literal world or the world as the parents knew it. Regardless, I would have said screw the world and give me my kid and husband. The REAL and TRUE gay experience would be denying my family to anyone that will spread a literal plague just to stop us existing. We LGBTs been around since the Dawn of time. Just cuz we never had children doesn’t mean we cannot make a family or stop existing all on our own. Honestly the true ending would be the family survive and these 4Chan members bite the dust.

    You answered many 'questions' with a great review! The trailers for this had me curious! Weirdly, not for *if* Mr M.Night had (finally) done a 'fitting/logical end' to a plot. But more for Dave Bautista's portrayal in this lead role! Imo, WWE's Stone Cold Steve Austin 'acting' was terrible as villain in Expendables. John Cena is doing 'something' of it I guess! Wondering if Bautista's 'acting chops' make the role(s) memorable.😊

    Saw this yesterday. I think the movie should have started with the couple and their daughter riding to the cabin in the woods because that's what they showed in the trailer.
    I'm confused as to one minute they were talking about preventing an apocalypse from happening to plagues happening. But they only seem to happen after one of the visitors was sacrificed. It kinda reminds me of Moses with the let my people go or else.
    And why was the family confined to the cabin? I thought the visitors were supposed to deliver the message only. And why did the visitors slash the couple's tires?
    And you guys forgot to mention the 4 virtues that each character represented. And one last thing, the guy called Redman was probably his nickname after all he did have red hair😆

    I like your review on this movie (I haven’t seen it yet)…also is it Nick’s (every now and then Joseph will throw in a few) job to use BIG words to confuse the viewers? Instead of fully enjoying the videos, I find myself having to pause the video each time he uses a word like rudimentary, dystopic, etc…I used to watch the entire video and as the BIG words would come spewing out I’d write them down and then when the video was over I’d google the words to find out the meaning or other words that have the same meaning, but then I’d find myself having to go back and watch the video again because I couldn’t remember in what context the BIG word was used (smart way to get extra views by the way), but now I just pause the movie, google the BIG word(s) and start the video back up. Anyway and as ALWAYS thanks for watching the movies (so we don’t necessarily have to), and telling us your thoughts🤗🤓

    Per usual the trailers gave way too much away. But I like that it was a "happy" ending. We don't need all that gloom and doom in every movie. I loved it. M. Night movies are typically a hit or miss. This was a surprising 'hit'.
    Remember time was moving differently so in the diner scene at the end they were calm because many hours had passed
    They've probably been gathered for hours watching the same news footage over and over so that's why everyone wasn't panicking.

    Nick what did you think of "The Sixth Sense"? I did enjoy that film. Although "Signs" was not my favorite by a long shot.

    I might check this out but I'm always let down after watching a M. Night Shyamalan film. The Sixth Sense was the only Shyamalan movie that I really enjoyed.

    I read the novel this was based on….it did have a much more ambiguous end! Yeah seems like some big differences …I actually thought the book was also odd in its premise. I mean I would never consider killing. A.Loved One because a bunch of whack. Jobs show up to say that nonsense idea…, what would some idea of “ saving humanity “ mean if you can’t save your most loved ones .a lot of detail with the young adopted daughter and the grasshoppers sounds identical to the book though. I would like to see it when it gets to streaming.

    the book's story is heart wrenching but also defiant as a queer story?
    M. Night turning it into just a "trolly dilema" kind of destroy that subtext, and play into the burry your gays trope too. I think it also represents that issue with the lack of ambiguity in his films. He think a story is all in the literal plot, and not in the meaning viewers can derive from the nuance annd subtext for the story.

    My two cents. They made the main characters gay because they are almost automatically instilled with the “us against the world” mentality. In the end that was their greatest obstacle (?). To stop being so angry at a world that judged them and and alienated them.
    The little girl was awesome and that line at the end in the treehouse “did daddy Eric save everyone?” Made me legit tear up.

    I thought the trailer looked dumb but I still gave it a shot. Alas, it *was* dumb. I felt like the pacing was off and there was loose ends that lead to nowhere. Like why did they have to make their weapons a certain way and did Rupert Grint know that was the same couple he did a hate crime to? What was the online forum they all met on? What was the point of all of the flashbacks besides making Andrew look angry? It was just all over the place lol

    I saw this Monday night at a screening and HATED it. I read the book a year ago in anticipation and hated it so much BUT the changes made to the film made me actually appreciate the book more because at least the book took risks.
    This film is POINTLESS because the whole mystique of the story is “is the apocalypse really looming?” and the film tells you it’s really happening halfway through thus making the rest of the film futile. The book left you ambiguous and this tells you up front, hell, it shows you it’s real.
    HATED IT.

    I seriously nodded off twice watching this movie.😂 It wasn't as bad as The Happening, which was TERRIBLE! I wanted my money back after that shitshow. But I loved Sixth Sense, The Village, the Unbreakable series and The Visit. I really thought M. Night had gotten his groove back after The Visit, but I guess not. But this movie was ok, like you guys said. LOL Alphonso from Breakfast All Day was offended by the movie🙄He thought the plane falling was exploitative of 9/11 and the virus in the movie was exploitative of the pandemic.

  • @glyndwr15

    The only M Night movie I liked was Unbreakable. It seems like he's always trying to do this magical realism thing, but it just comes off as campy, absurd, and awkward. Unbreakable was the only movie where he actually kind of pulled it off.

    yeah I think youre right with who should have directed it the ppl youre naming by the movies they made, they probably woulda made it look a little ..bit better like a little more open I dont know how to explain if I am even making any sense but I liked it

    The book sounds so much better. Feels more realistic to the couple. I'm a straight male and I was rooting for the men. I felt like they gave in at the end. I didn't see the intruders as the 4 horsemen, I saw them as invaders. Agents of society trying to impose themselves on a family they had no right imposing themselves on. The book sounds more like how i would have liked the movie to end. love your review guys!

    I never saw the movie nor heard of the book, but by just seeing the title of the movie, I skipped even wanting to find out what that was about :)
