Dawg tf you expect 💀 it ain’t gonna be the same. And nah it was a perfect movie it was pg-13 and if you aren’t a fan already then it wasn’t for you anyway.
9/10😂 dude its a solid 5/10 at most. Nothing special at all with this movie. It doesn't stick out, and they rather use scotts boring lore instead of the fanbase lore which not only makes more sense but have made the fnaf name stick out.
When they say 'a movie for the fans' (paraphrasing of course), they're really not wrong, it's been something the fans have been waiting for for a long time and the movie absolutely hit it out of the park in that aspect. Looking forward to the next FNAF movie whenever that may be.
If this movie was really for the fans, it would’ve stuck with the original story instead of Emma, creating her own corny stupid story. This had nothing to do with Scott’s idea or vision at all. It’s extremely sad to see his dream get crushed like this. And it’s even sadder that the Fanbase is not defending him for it.

And most important of all, thank you Scott for making FNAF, without you, this would have never happened.... :]
The imagery and set design in this movie could not have been better. They nailed it to the point where the security screens in the movie looked EXACTLY like the games. Bravo, team!
This movie was amazing! Ever actor and actress involved did splendid job! The visual was the best part of this film! And little hints that you'd probably only know if you're a fan was so cool! Love Five Nights at Freddy's 🐻🐥🦊🐰
Matthew played William Afton so well! He really fits into the role, I’m very excited for the future films (fingers crossed 🤞🏼) to see more of the lore that I love from the games! And see William become more and more disturbed and more disconnected from reality!
can't wait to watch this I've been avoiding spoilers from all social medias, this has been my childhood and seeing this fanbase grow and being in it until it became a massive thing right now is fascinating.
I don't care if people are mad that children built a fort or that the movie wasn't 2 hours of mike sitting in the office looking at cameras, I absolutely loved it.
Saw this movie at my school's theater since they were doing a Halloween showing and it was SO MUCH FUN. The whole crowd was just college students and we all were teens when the games came out, so we were all just laughing and cheering and having a blast whenever something cool happened. Like the intro credits everyone was hyped, when Matt Pat showed up everyone was losing their minds, whenever there was actually like the gore parts we were all dead silent in shock, and when the Living Tomb Stone's song came on for the credits everyone was singing along. Best crowd experience I've ever had, it was such a fun movie.
Watched the movie yesterday and i think that was one of the best cinema experience that i ever had. The room was full of fans and people that share the same passion for those games. Especially at the end. So many people sat there till the end of the credits because they knew how these secrets in the fnaf universe work and we where not disappointed. I sat there almost smiling the whole movie long because its such a nostalgic feeling to see the pizzaria and the animatronic come to life. They really did a great job to capture the feeling off the games. Thank you
this movie means so much to me, even with its flaws i cant describe how close i hold this movie to my heart. i never really had much friends but i always came home to obsess and draw things from fnaf it was my world when i was little i remember hearing about the movie coming out when i was little and i remember being so excited but then it never happened to see it happen brings me to tears. its not just a game its the songs the community its brings the story its gives the people like scott who worked so hard to make this thank you for being my childhood five nights at freddys. it means more than you could ever know
i heard a few people not like the movie because it strays so far from the original lore, but for me, thats what i love about this movie. it takes the original characters and concepts from a franchise we love dearly and makes a whole new story out of it. not in a game, not in a book, but something created for the big screen. its making a new story for us in a way we've never seen before and im absolutely here for it. i love what they did with it and im so excited for the next 2 (if the rumours hold up that they signed a 3 picture deal). people jumping up and down about how the story is nothing like the games or whatever, THATS WHAT THE GAMES ARE FOR. you want original stuff? play the original games. we got a whole new thing here and its awesome. the amount of time, effort, love and care put into this movie was absolutely worth it i reckon and i applaud everyone who worked on this film.
You saying all this hurt Scott’s feelings because this is not what he wanted for his franchise. Emma destroyed it all when she made this movie. That’s why it was in production for eight years because she didn’t want to listen to Scott.
@@Woter_X it was in production for so long because scott wanted it to be perfect, he rejected script after script and changed studios until he finally got something he was happy with, which was the movie we have
@@emmasynmonee2873 that is entirely not true. This was not the movie he wanted. That’s why it still took so long to make. Emma herself said that she didn’t know the source material and just went off of what the books gave her. Scott wanted something scarier for his movie. Do you really think Scott wanted his animatronics to have a sleepover with the security guard and his sister? Do you really think Scott wanted his animatronics to play tickle fight with the little girl? Like it’s not that hard to see that this movie was cringe and not at all with anybody expected. They labeled it as a horror movie yet there was nothing scary about it and that’s not just me saying that, that’s everybody that saying that. Even the Fanbase is saying that it wasn’t scary.
(Spoilers kinda?) This movie was amazing! My only issue with it was a scene with Vanessa early on in the movie. The scene with her throwing the bottle of Mike's pills into the water was more funny than serious. 8/10 for me! The attention to detail was exceptional!
It was weird too cause she was trying to act like she had the moral high ground but she did so by litering. She should've just kept the pills in her pocket
@ExplosionMare fr! She could've done anything but she had to throw the sleep pills in the water. That part kinda felt thrown in and not properly thought out.
After seeing it I’m calling it a horror/comedy cause there were a lot of funny parts IMO, Blumhouse is very known for that style and I honestly think it fits well with the games, Horror and Humor. So it being funny kinda could have been a choice seeing how some of the other scenes had comedic elements too
I’ve been a fan of the games since the beginning and I adored this movie! They really nailed the nostalgia of it while making it so fresh and new at the same time! I was a little skeptical from hearing others call it a “family-friendly horror” but it was actually so well-executed and so much fun to watch
The movie brought emotions to me, strong ones. Being a fnaf fan for years and seeing the movie brought to life like this, thank u to the actors and everyone who made the movie!
@@karmeltv1620 this movie was not made for you. It was made for the fans to cough up money to go see this cash cow. It’s plainly obvious they didn’t care about the material.
@@Woter_X wtf you talking about im happy they make money on this movie cause it was great and they gonna do another one, the animatronics looks insane, every little detail was on point, the story also was almost the same like in games/books. That was just such a great movie for every fnaf fan :) and be real every REAL fan is happy they make money out of this, They are happy, fans are happy :)
as a long time fan it really is so surreal to see the animatronics be put to life like this. younger me would have been so ecstatic to know what the movie would be! but let's be honest, the younger part of me and current part of me both enjoyed the movie. my friend and i were so excited in those movies seats-- we could barely contain ourselves!
I admire Scott a lot for what he has created when he was about to give up on his dream of making videogames he instead built something huge, I'm very thankful for the story and lore and quirky fanbase and I loved the movie.
Scott did not create this movie. He only created the video games. Emma is the one that created the movie as well as the story in the movie and it was god awful. I really feel bad for Scott because I’m sure he’s also very disappointed with how this turned out.
@@Woter_X Dude, what are you on about... Scott wrote the story and he was there in every step to oversee it, and he is proud of it... Also the original comment never said Scott made the movie himself, it said that the person loves what Scott has created over the years, learn to read
As a hardcore fan (Ive been in the fandom since the beginning), this movie is my childhood. I meant so many of my friends because of the games, i even met my bestie because of the games. I love the set designs, the deigns for the animatronics, and how the characters interacted with each other. And I love that they had the fans in mind. One of my favorite movies of all times.
The hate it gets is mostly either people who were not very deep into the lore and just played the games, so they wanted it to be scarier or movie critics who know nothing about the franchise, so they wanted it to be scarier. But the movie has a very good audience score in general
THE WAIT WAS SO WORTH IT! Edit:I finished watching the movie,I was happy but now that I remember it's Scott's last project before retirement I'm sobbing. THANK YOU SCOTT
as a old fan, i felt very proud and happy with the movie. it was even more special because i watched it with my parents! I thank the team for the effort they made and especially trying to please the fans, because the film really managed to please me, and thank you Scott Cawthon for making fnaf being part of my childhood! 💜
Having a bunch of videos pop up that were giving a negative review was ridiculous b/c honestly their complaints tell me they only played the games once or didn’t play all of them. They didn’t even look into the books. This movie was fantastic. Some parts seemed a little slow or not dire enough but overall I loved it. And even cried/laughed during the cameos. I can’t wait for the second movie in the future!!!!
i’ve been a fnaf fan since day one lmao and i was immensely disappointed. i could probably write an essay on how badly this movie was made. from a student who took tech theater, there was just hardly any attention to horror portrayal and jumpscares, the VERY MAIN thing that makes fnaf scary. there wasn’t one jumpscare from any animatronic.
@@sarahphiel OK then, Mr. Tech Theater student, how about you take 8 yrs to write and make a better movie, all for people just to give you a negative review. Bet you can't! lol
This movie absolutely flipped some of the lore we once thought we knew on its head. Maybe not the best plot for a movie in general, but still entertaining to watch the characters I basically grew up with get on the big screen. 9.5/10 from me. [:
The Jim Henson company deserves all their flowers for bringing these guys to life, especially the suit performers for Bonnie, Freddy, Chica and puppeteers for Foxy. I can't wait to see them work their magic in the sequels.
When something is made with love and passion, you can see it, not just feel it. That's why even if the FNAF movie has its flaws, it will always be miles better than something like the Halo TV series, with triple the budget. Studios need to see the success of this and understand what truly makes something worthy of its adapting source.
Love and passion does not make a movie good. You need to get that out of your head immediately. The one piece live adaptation also had love and passion put into it and that also was extremely terrible and cringe. Emma, who is the one that produced this terrible movie decided not to listen to Scott and barely knew the source material.
@@Woter_X Based on interviews with Emma she managed to quote some very obscure lore that most people don't know about and that they threw hints of into the movie but I'll let you continue on your hate parade because all that matters is the REAL fans recognize the effort, attention to detail, and accuracy of the movie.
@@derpybird2039 do you ever wonder why Chris gave it such a bad movie review? Because that’s their job. Their job is to critique a movie to a T. Oh, but honestly, we don’t even need the professional critics to critique this because any common person would also know that this was total crap. You have yet to make any claims defending this movie for what it is. Just because Emma did some research to find some lore that nobody knew about or at least the majority does doesn’t make it a good movie. I could also throw in some lore and make a fan made movie and posted on TH-cam and Collett the greatest thing ever and all the Fanbase would love it because it shows their favorite characters. Doing it for the Fanbase is not a good idea because it leads to nothing but cringe. How do you further the movie after spoiling every single part that makes the franchise special all in one go very sloppy and poorly? Please explain because I don’t think you can. Also I’m not here on a total rampage. I’m definitely here to listen to somebody who does have a good response for this and I will take it into consideration, but I have yet to find anybody with a brain that can articulate their actual feelings towards this movie and give a good honest review about it. So maybe you might be the first so if you can enlighten me, that would be great.
@@Woter_X If the movie wasn't for the fans everyone would hate it because it had such a low budget and wouldn't be able to do anything. The film was a starting point for a series of films (which has been stated multiple times) so the future films could expand on things more and have higher budgets to do more exciting things. You all expect so much of people who were given so little to do anything with. Also you have yet to make any decent claims either so maybe work on your argument skills before getting into these things. I don't like dealing with condescending online idiots like you though so have a good day! I'm not spending anymore time on people who refuse to listen.
I just love how u guys put the og song for the credits. Almost made me cry from all the good memories from when I first heard about Freddy in 2016 😭 best movie ever.
The way the movie tied together so many aspects of the games and really delivered was so amazing. I have been into the games since about two weeks after the first was released when I was 14 years old and now I'm 23. I have awaited this movie ever since the day it was announced and I could have cried through so much of the movie. I am so appreciative that they kept fans in mind and I could not be more satisfied with what we got. As a seasoned FNaF fan, I successfully was jumpscared multiple times, shocked by some of the most thrilling and spooky elements and scenes that we've only ever really imagined in fan works, and gained a new perspective on the franchise as a result. I saw the movie yesterday with two others who are treasured to me that have loved the games for years too and we all haven't been able to stop talking about it. We all plan on going to the theaters to see it again. Remember, the critics are paid to write the most scathing roasts and reviews, but the fans know what's good!!!!
You can tell right from the start that this was for the fans. And that they put so much heart into that thought. All of the little details and easter eggs were absolute amazing. And the applause in my theater was deafening. 10/10 for me
Every movie has it flaws, that's a given but the fact that you stuck to keeping it for the fans, really brought back the nostalgia of the games. All the little hidden gems made the movie so much better. Itreally lived up to the hype I felt. My friends had such a blast watching it and seeing all the little details...Not to mention, seeing matpat was awesome!
I got to watch it last night and I had a stupid grin on my face from start to finish. I loved it! I didn't think it was scary (and that's coming from someone who scares easily and doesn't like horror at all) aside from a few jump scares, but maybe I've developed an immunity to Fnaf horror I dunno. I would've loved to see what this movie could've been with a higher rating, but I really liked it the way it is now. Fingers crossed we'll get a director's cut because apparently a lot got cut out for the final release! Also Freddy and the gang? Mwah, chef's kiss! They looked amazing!
It’s undeniable how much love and attention to detail was put into bringing this world to life. My only 2 gripes with the movie are that its REALLY held back by the pg rating, and I wish there was more instances of characters “discovering” stuff rather than just being told stuff, because the whole thing about fnaf stories and lore is that at least 50% of it is hidden in the tiny details and requires the audience to look for it themselves instead of it being told to them.
The games , the lore , the novels. Everything. And now a movie. It's definitely what I've always imagined ! Loved the movie! The amount of unexpected things that happened, I didn't expect it at all. Now that's what I call a jumpscare. Thank you for making this movie! And I cannot wait for the upcoming ones! The little easter eggs that I noticed. My friends were confused as one of them is a novel reader , another is a new fan who join thanks to Security breach. I join during the Sister Location era 🤣 (I watched it with my friends, on my little TV and it was an amazing experience! Tho I didn't experience it in the cinemas I definitely enjoyed it!)
I cried watching the whole movie, and i cried watching this. this was a dream of mine ever sense i was a little kid and it came true! i have no words to describe how much joy, love, and sadness this whole thing brought me, not just the movie but everything!
I've been a mega fan for nearly 8 years now, and the movie was incredible! I could feel the love and respect for the characters and settings and it was a wonderful watch.
I can’t imagine how all of this must feel for Scott Cawthon. This man lived to see what was supposed to be his last ditch effort at making a video game turn into a full on franchise. And now he gets to see the 4 animatronics that changed his life on the big screen in a full length movie.
I cried at the end of the movie. This movie is REALLY FOR THE FANS. Never ever, my 13-14 year old me, wouldn't even thought about seeing Freddy and his gang on the big screen! This is dream come true.
I really loved how this felt like a thank you to the fans. At first I was a little bummed that the movie didn't follow the games' lore, but over time I started to appreciate the litttle things, especially how life-like the animatronics look. Above all I'm very happy at Scott Cawthon's involvement
Never been in a movie theatre this hyped when i went last night everyone was shocked scared happy everyone clapped at the end it was like we went to a concert or somthing😂
Honestly, there should've been a scene where Freddy goes "Har har har har har!" But anyway, 8 whole years for this movie, it was beautiful. I cried at the credits.
I am amazed at how big this community has become. That big for it to make Freddy and his gang come alive on big screen. Thanks Scott and thanks everyone who made this possible ❤❤. Can't wait for another movie!!
You know I realized something that everyone seemed to have overlooked, if they had added Freddy's nose honk on the animatronic or the poster I would have been THRILLED I am hoping they add that in the sequel (Fingers crossed though)
This was honestly the best movie I have ever seen loved it me and my sister were both screaming at the MATPAT part but this was honestly the best movie thank you guys for the hard work loved it!
ok so been a fan for years was very nervous about how they would come up with a storyline for this movie and on top of that after seeing willy’s wonderland i was afraid they were gonna mess this up and let me say high five to them because this movie is awesome i’ve watched it 4 times since its been out Im in love
LOVE THE MOVIE SO MUCH thank you guys for bringing back my childhood love the movie everything was great thank you Scott!! and everyone who was working it can't wait to the next 2 movies

@@redbeatftw7957YAY
SAME I WATCHED IT LAST NIGHT
Hoping they will make a prequel.
The imagery and set design in this movie could not have been better. They nailed it to the point where the security screens in the movie looked EXACTLY like the games. Bravo, team!
This movie was amazing! Ever actor and actress involved did splendid job! The visual was the best part of this film! And little hints that you'd probably only know if you're a fan was so cool! Love Five Nights at Freddy's 🐻🐥🦊🐰
har har har har har hooooooooooooooooooor
remember sparky the dog? no one in my theater did.. 😭😭😭😭
@@StxrToSmooth i was so shocked to see him
Matthew played William Afton so well! He really fits into the role, I’m very excited for the future films (fingers crossed 🤞🏼) to see more of the lore that I love from the games! And see William become more and more disturbed and more disconnected from reality!
can't wait to watch this I've been avoiding spoilers from all social medias, this has been my childhood and seeing this fanbase grow and being in it until it became a massive thing right now is fascinating.
Yea same😅
Spiderman dies in the end
Trust me, its AWESOME. The plot doesn’t really pick until way later in tho
I really liked it. Just watched it yesterday.
@@whoever5526I cried when that happened
by FAR the best aspect of this movie is the animatronics. I cannot put into words how good they look.
same, i loved Mike and Abb(e?)y too
i watched this movie and it was fr INSANE i love it sm its literally my fav movie EVER
I agree!
@@ringmasterlolbit9650 i love horror stuff how abt u?
it was so awesome
@@teamuntamed8514 yesss
One of the best game movie I've seen but its just lack of horror and it could have been perfect
I don't care if people are mad that children built a fort or that the movie wasn't 2 hours of mike sitting in the office looking at cameras, I absolutely loved it.
after 8 years the fan base is stronger than ever it’s crazy how much it’s grown ❤
The games actually been out for 9, almost 10 years!
This is the grossest comment I’ve ever seen
9
my bad!
Saw this movie at my school's theater since they were doing a Halloween showing and it was SO MUCH FUN. The whole crowd was just college students and we all were teens when the games came out, so we were all just laughing and cheering and having a blast whenever something cool happened. Like the intro credits everyone was hyped, when Matt Pat showed up everyone was losing their minds, whenever there was actually like the gore parts we were all dead silent in shock, and when the Living Tomb Stone's song came on for the credits everyone was singing along. Best crowd experience I've ever had, it was such a fun movie.
I loved this movie. You can really tell how much effort went into making it. It’s the perfect love letter to fans.
Watched the movie yesterday and i think that was one of the best cinema experience that i ever had. The room was full of fans and people that share the same passion for those games. Especially at the end. So many people sat there till the end of the credits because they knew how these secrets in the fnaf universe work and we where not disappointed. I sat there almost smiling the whole movie long because its such a nostalgic feeling to see the pizzaria and the animatronic come to life. They really did a great job to capture the feeling off the games. Thank you
this movie means so much to me, even with its flaws i cant describe how close i hold this movie to my heart. i never really had much friends but i always came home to obsess and draw things from fnaf it was my world when i was little i remember hearing about the movie coming out when i was little and i remember being so excited but then it never happened to see it happen brings me to tears. its not just a game its the songs the community its brings the story its gives the people like scott who worked so hard to make this thank you for being my childhood five nights at freddys. it means more than you could ever know

@@haxozr0 who???
@@Vxmpire4lif3 what is going on???
i heard a few people not like the movie because it strays so far from the original lore, but for me, thats what i love about this movie. it takes the original characters and concepts from a franchise we love dearly and makes a whole new story out of it. not in a game, not in a book, but something created for the big screen. its making a new story for us in a way we've never seen before and im absolutely here for it. i love what they did with it and im so excited for the next 2 (if the rumours hold up that they signed a 3 picture deal). people jumping up and down about how the story is nothing like the games or whatever, THATS WHAT THE GAMES ARE FOR. you want original stuff? play the original games. we got a whole new thing here and its awesome. the amount of time, effort, love and care put into this movie was absolutely worth it i reckon and i applaud everyone who worked on this film.
You saying all this hurt Scott’s feelings because this is not what he wanted for his franchise. Emma destroyed it all when she made this movie. That’s why it was in production for eight years because she didn’t want to listen to Scott.
@@Woter_X it was in production for so long because scott wanted it to be perfect, he rejected script after script and changed studios until he finally got something he was happy with, which was the movie we have
@@emmasynmonee2873 that is entirely not true. This was not the movie he wanted. That’s why it still took so long to make. Emma herself said that she didn’t know the source material and just went off of what the books gave her. Scott wanted something scarier for his movie. Do you really think Scott wanted his animatronics to have a sleepover with the security guard and his sister? Do you really think Scott wanted his animatronics to play tickle fight with the little girl? Like it’s not that hard to see that this movie was cringe and not at all with anybody expected. They labeled it as a horror movie yet there was nothing scary about it and that’s not just me saying that, that’s everybody that saying that. Even the Fanbase is saying that it wasn’t scary.
@@Woter_X mb man sorry for not chronically being up to date with opinions and just enjoying the movie 💀
@@Woter_X Do you have an actual source for this or did you just make it up for clicks
(Spoilers kinda?) This movie was amazing! My only issue with it was a scene with Vanessa early on in the movie. The scene with her throwing the bottle of Mike's pills into the water was more funny than serious. 8/10 for me! The attention to detail was exceptional!
It was weird too cause she was trying to act like she had the moral high ground but she did so by litering. She should've just kept the pills in her pocket
@ExplosionMare fr! She could've done anything but she had to throw the sleep pills in the water. That part kinda felt thrown in and not properly thought out.
After seeing it I’m calling it a horror/comedy cause there were a lot of funny parts IMO, Blumhouse is very known for that style and I honestly think it fits well with the games, Horror and Humor. So it being funny kinda could have been a choice seeing how some of the other scenes had comedic elements too
it's a solid 6/10 not the best and not the worst
@@youmadbro9622 I would've given it about a 6-8/10 if nostalgia didn't play a factor. I still had a blast watching it in theaters
I’ve been a fan of the games since the beginning and I adored this movie! They really nailed the nostalgia of it while making it so fresh and new at the same time! I was a little skeptical from hearing others call it a “family-friendly horror” but it was actually so well-executed and so much fun to watch
You’re not a fan if you like this movie
@@Woter_X aww, sorry I just know how to enjoy things and you don’t :(
@@TheWolvyrne PFFTTTTTT, agreed xd
The movie brought emotions to me, strong ones. Being a fnaf fan for years and seeing the movie brought to life like this, thank u to the actors and everyone who made the movie!
I’ve never seen so many fake comments in a video before
why fake comment the movie was made for fans and most of us think this movie was amazing@@Woter_X
@@karmeltv1620 this movie was not made for you. It was made for the fans to cough up money to go see this cash cow. It’s plainly obvious they didn’t care about the material.
@@Woter_X wtf you talking about im happy they make money on this movie cause it was great and they gonna do another one, the animatronics looks insane, every little detail was on point, the story also was almost the same like in games/books. That was just such a great movie for every fnaf fan :) and be real every REAL fan is happy they make money out of this, They are happy, fans are happy :)
as a long time fan it really is so surreal to see the animatronics be put to life like this. younger me would have been so ecstatic to know what the movie would be! but let's be honest, the younger part of me and current part of me both enjoyed the movie. my friend and i were so excited in those movies seats-- we could barely contain ourselves!
I admire Scott a lot for what he has created when he was about to give up on his dream of making videogames he instead built something huge, I'm very thankful for the story and lore and quirky fanbase and I loved the movie.
Scott did not create this movie. He only created the video games. Emma is the one that created the movie as well as the story in the movie and it was god awful. I really feel bad for Scott because I’m sure he’s also very disappointed with how this turned out.
@@Woter_X Dude, what are you on about... Scott wrote the story and he was there in every step to oversee it, and he is proud of it... Also the original comment never said Scott made the movie himself, it said that the person loves what Scott has created over the years, learn to read
the hell you on about, scott co-wrote the screenplay you poodle@@Woter_X
@@Woter_X Did you not watch the video for more than 2 minutes?
@@thechaoticuchiha you have made zero points in your comment. Keep trying.
As a hardcore fan (Ive been in the fandom since the beginning), this movie is my childhood. I meant so many of my friends because of the games, i even met my bestie because of the games. I love the set designs, the deigns for the animatronics, and how the characters interacted with each other. And I love that they had the fans in mind. One of my favorite movies of all times.
Let me tell ya, the hype in the theater when MatPat came on screen was unreal
when
when he came on in my theatre no one knew who he was except me😂
@@Baguette_Lord12I didn’t know who Cory was when he came on screen and everyone yelled his name in hype.
I don't see why this movie is so hated. I love it and I've already watched it twice. Thank you for making it it's my fav movie I love it
The only ones who hate it are not even fans of FNAF. Phooey..
The hate it gets is mostly either people who were not very deep into the lore and just played the games, so they wanted it to be scarier or movie critics who know nothing about the franchise, so they wanted it to be scarier. But the movie has a very good audience score in general
That is very true
THE WAIT WAS SO WORTH IT!
Edit:I finished watching the movie,I was happy but now that I remember it's Scott's last project before retirement I'm sobbing.
THANK YOU SCOTT

watched this movie yesterday, everyone in the theater was amazed and we all freaked out from matpats scene xD
after 8 years of wanting a Five nights at Freddy’s movie, i was watching with a huge smile throughout the entire movie! absolutely loved it
I LOVE this movie but it has THREE jumpscares, not "a lot". Still 10/10
theres bb jumpscares, the hand jumpscare, and foxy jumpscares it was pretty scary lmao, i really loved the movie though
What do you mean, it has way more than three
i got spoiled :(
@@an-animal-lover idk really
@FOXXBOXX10411 exactly, wich is fine!
"we are making this movie for them" 2:24 so stfu critics giving it a low score
Having a bunch of videos pop up that were giving a negative review was ridiculous b/c honestly their complaints tell me they only played the games once or didn’t play all of them. They didn’t even look into the books. This movie was fantastic. Some parts seemed a little slow or not dire enough but overall I loved it. And even cried/laughed during the cameos. I can’t wait for the second movie in the future!!!!
I totally agree I was also impressed with the amount of things they did with a budget of only 20 million
just because a movie is bad doesn't mean you can't like it
@@theplaguedoctorplushie670 exactly
i’ve been a fnaf fan since day one lmao and i was immensely disappointed. i could probably write an essay on how badly this movie was made. from a student who took tech theater, there was just hardly any attention to horror portrayal and jumpscares, the VERY MAIN thing that makes fnaf scary. there wasn’t one jumpscare from any animatronic.
@@sarahphiel OK then, Mr. Tech Theater student, how about you take 8 yrs to write and make a better movie, all for people just to give you a negative review. Bet you can't! lol
This movie absolutely flipped some of the lore we once thought we knew on its head. Maybe not the best plot for a movie in general, but still entertaining to watch the characters I basically grew up with get on the big screen. 9.5/10 from me. [:
As a fan myself, the movie was definitely a 10/10, loved it! Also Josh was amazing.
Gosh the casting was perfect. Matthew lillard and Josh Hutcherson are so likable. I can’t not smile when they are on screen
this movie literally completed my childhood
The Jim Henson company deserves all their flowers for bringing these guys to life, especially the suit performers for Bonnie, Freddy, Chica and puppeteers for Foxy. I can't wait to see them work their magic in the sequels.
So After watching the movie, im glad it was worth it and really felt like new people can enjoy it without needing to understand the game.
No, that’s entirely untrue. This movie has nothing to do with the video games at all. The games lore is far different from this piece of crap movie.
When something is made with love and passion, you can see it, not just feel it. That's why even if the FNAF movie has its flaws, it will always be miles better than something like the Halo TV series, with triple the budget. Studios need to see the success of this and understand what truly makes something worthy of its adapting source.
Love and passion does not make a movie good. You need to get that out of your head immediately. The one piece live adaptation also had love and passion put into it and that also was extremely terrible and cringe. Emma, who is the one that produced this terrible movie decided not to listen to Scott and barely knew the source material.
@@Woter_X Based on interviews with Emma she managed to quote some very obscure lore that most people don't know about and that they threw hints of into the movie but I'll let you continue on your hate parade because all that matters is the REAL fans recognize the effort, attention to detail, and accuracy of the movie.
@@derpybird2039 do you ever wonder why Chris gave it such a bad movie review? Because that’s their job. Their job is to critique a movie to a T. Oh, but honestly, we don’t even need the professional critics to critique this because any common person would also know that this was total crap. You have yet to make any claims defending this movie for what it is. Just because Emma did some research to find some lore that nobody knew about or at least the majority does doesn’t make it a good movie. I could also throw in some lore and make a fan made movie and posted on TH-cam and Collett the greatest thing ever and all the Fanbase would love it because it shows their favorite characters. Doing it for the Fanbase is not a good idea because it leads to nothing but cringe. How do you further the movie after spoiling every single part that makes the franchise special all in one go very sloppy and poorly? Please explain because I don’t think you can. Also I’m not here on a total rampage. I’m definitely here to listen to somebody who does have a good response for this and I will take it into consideration, but I have yet to find anybody with a brain that can articulate their actual feelings towards this movie and give a good honest review about it. So maybe you might be the first so if you can enlighten me, that would be great.
@@Woter_X If the movie wasn't for the fans everyone would hate it because it had such a low budget and wouldn't be able to do anything. The film was a starting point for a series of films (which has been stated multiple times) so the future films could expand on things more and have higher budgets to do more exciting things. You all expect so much of people who were given so little to do anything with. Also you have yet to make any decent claims either so maybe work on your argument skills before getting into these things. I don't like dealing with condescending online idiots like you though so have a good day! I'm not spending anymore time on people who refuse to listen.
I just watched this movie and I loved it especially the suspense
I just love how u guys put the og song for the credits. Almost made me cry from all the good memories from when I first heard about Freddy in 2016 😭 best movie ever.
Just got home from seeing this with bro. It wasn’t bad 👍🏾
The way the movie tied together so many aspects of the games and really delivered was so amazing. I have been into the games since about two weeks after the first was released when I was 14 years old and now I'm 23. I have awaited this movie ever since the day it was announced and I could have cried through so much of the movie. I am so appreciative that they kept fans in mind and I could not be more satisfied with what we got. As a seasoned FNaF fan, I successfully was jumpscared multiple times, shocked by some of the most thrilling and spooky elements and scenes that we've only ever really imagined in fan works, and gained a new perspective on the franchise as a result. I saw the movie yesterday with two others who are treasured to me that have loved the games for years too and we all haven't been able to stop talking about it. We all plan on going to the theaters to see it again. Remember, the critics are paid to write the most scathing roasts and reviews, but the fans know what's good!!!!
As a fan this movie is just a straight 10/10
stop lying to yourself
What I LOVE is that EVERYONE involved with the production, KNEW this NEEDED to be for the fans! Without FNAF Fans, this movie would NEVER be possible
I’ve been waiting 9 years for this movie I’ve been a fan since the first game came out in 2014 and it was so so so worth the wait
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE THAT PUT HER HEART AND SOUL IN THIS PROJECT 💜 WE LOVE FNAF
This movie was so good! But there are certainly rooms for improvement. 7.5/10
I agree, hopefully the sequel will be better, but I still loved this one though.
You can tell right from the start that this was for the fans. And that they put so much heart into that thought. All of the little details and easter eggs were absolute amazing. And the applause in my theater was deafening. 10/10 for me
it was amazing!!! A big thanks to blumhouse for making these 8 years worth it
Every movie has it flaws, that's a given but the fact that you stuck to keeping it for the fans, really brought back the nostalgia of the games. All the little hidden gems made the movie so much better. Itreally lived up to the hype I felt. My friends had such a blast watching it and seeing all the little details...Not to mention, seeing matpat was awesome!
This movie was epic and it was a 10/10
Lies
THE MOVIE IS SUCH A MASTERPIECE OF ART! CAN'T WAIT FOR MORE
far from a masterpiece
I got to watch it last night and I had a stupid grin on my face from start to finish. I loved it! I didn't think it was scary (and that's coming from someone who scares easily and doesn't like horror at all) aside from a few jump scares, but maybe I've developed an immunity to Fnaf horror I dunno. I would've loved to see what this movie could've been with a higher rating, but I really liked it the way it is now. Fingers crossed we'll get a director's cut because apparently a lot got cut out for the final release! Also Freddy and the gang? Mwah, chef's kiss! They looked amazing!
Loved everything about the movie! Everyone did such an amazing job. It was worth the wait :D
3:51 imagen he took to long to get out of the chair, the cameramen just slowly watch die lol
as a fan since 2014 i loved the movie so much and i appreciate everyone’s hard work that worked on the movie
Another fake a comment
Me and my teenage son had a blast watching this together 🎉
It’s undeniable how much love and attention to detail was put into bringing this world to life. My only 2 gripes with the movie are that its REALLY held back by the pg rating, and I wish there was more instances of characters “discovering” stuff rather than just being told stuff, because the whole thing about fnaf stories and lore is that at least 50% of it is hidden in the tiny details and requires the audience to look for it themselves instead of it being told to them.
They really did ‘make a movie for the fans’ they excelled so well!!! It wasn’t perfect but I had an absolute blast!
What’s the point?
To me this was a horror movie for tweens. Like Are you afraid of the dark vibes. Which is exactly what I wanted it to be.
never played the game but it was actually alot better than what i was expecting.
is it just me or does abby's "hello" sound exactly like balloon boy's "hello" 0:28

The games , the lore , the novels. Everything. And now a movie.
It's definitely what I've always imagined ! Loved the movie!
The amount of unexpected things that happened, I didn't expect it at all. Now that's what I call a jumpscare. Thank you for making this movie! And I cannot wait for the upcoming ones!
The little easter eggs that I noticed.
My friends were confused as one of them is a novel reader , another is a new fan who join thanks to Security breach. I join during the Sister Location era 🤣
(I watched it with my friends, on my little TV and it was an amazing experience! Tho I didn't experience it in the cinemas I definitely enjoyed it!)
I cried watching the whole movie, and i cried watching this. this was a dream of mine ever sense i was a little kid and it came true! i have no words to describe how much joy, love, and sadness this whole thing brought me, not just the movie but everything!
Thank you guys what an amazing movie
I just finished the movie, it was amazing! I waited this movie for 7 years and it didn't disappointed me :) I would give it a 9/10!

I can’t imagine how all of this must feel for Scott Cawthon. This man lived to see what was supposed to be his last ditch effort at making a video game turn into a full on franchise. And now he gets to see the 4 animatronics that changed his life on the big screen in a full length movie.
I cried at the end of the movie. This movie is REALLY FOR THE FANS. Never ever, my 13-14 year old me, wouldn't even thought about seeing Freddy and his gang on the big screen! This is dream come true.
oh wow I watched this today!
I really loved how this felt like a thank you to the fans. At first I was a little bummed that the movie didn't follow the games' lore, but over time I started to appreciate the litttle things, especially how life-like the animatronics look. Above all I'm very happy at Scott Cawthon's involvement
Never been in a movie theatre this hyped when i went last night everyone was shocked scared happy everyone clapped at the end it was like we went to a concert or somthing😂
Great Work Team! really like how the movie turned out! ;)
Even if this movie was rated-R, and if more scenes were gory like the springlock scene. This movie still brings back the good old days...
Honestly, there should've been a scene where Freddy goes "Har har har har har!" But anyway, 8 whole years for this movie, it was beautiful. I cried at the credits.
If Scott wasn’t there to produce it himself, it would’ve been completely different
probably wouldve been better
@@cylex966 I don’t know about that, Chief. He made the game, so there’s no reason he shouldn’t be a part of it.
im saying if he wasnt there it wouldve been more horror than thriller which is the entire reason i wanted the fnaf movie@@JaellsGaming
I am amazed at how big this community has become. That big for it to make Freddy and his gang come alive on big screen. Thanks Scott and thanks everyone who made this possible ❤❤. Can't wait for another movie!!
One thing to say, the soundtrack slaps
As I can say from a fan perspective I really loved this movie so much it had so many good parts and the lore was definitely my favorite part 🙌😍
The fact that blumhouse collaborated with the Jim Henson creature shop is amazing
You know I realized something that everyone seemed to have overlooked, if they had added Freddy's nose honk on the animatronic or the poster I would have been THRILLED I am hoping they add that in the sequel (Fingers crossed though)

ok so been a fan for years was very nervous about how they would come up with a storyline for this movie and on top of that after seeing willy’s wonderland i was afraid they were gonna mess this up and let me say high five to them because this movie is awesome i’ve watched it 4 times since its been out Im in love
I think this movie is wonderful! I’m watched this film in the cinema,it’s wonderful! Thanks Scott Cawthon for our childhood!
