It's not enough, that if someone wants to avoid the woke-screamers, you have to stay off social media, but one can't even read reviews as you lot keep misusing the bloody word. You are poisoning everything.
If a movie isn't 100% cast by Caucasian heterosexual males, doesn't mean it is woke. We are not in the 1950's anymore.
And this movie isn't great.
Expected only the worst, but that was actually awesome!
This movie will scare Republicans because it is "woke". Another item added to their list.
For those of us who don't live in an echo chamber... this film touches on actual issues that we are living in right now. Technology dependency, racism, disaffected youth... to name a few. The premise is plausible, the reactions from the characters are genuine and well executed and the ending is explained to you if you payed attention.
There are few dull moments and if your audio is good, a few jump scares will keep your heart rate up.
Excellent, and definitely not boring.
If you only care about an ending, maybe you should watch some other kind of cinema. There are plenty of choices for you.
If you care about a great script, superb cast and acting, beautiful camera work, intriguing plot, a tension feeling without really knowing what's happening kind of movie, well, this one is for you.
Sam Esmail has delivered a great work here. It ticks all the boxes that you could expect from him.
An ending like this one, is very subjective, but it works perfectly for me. It just feels right. We found out what was really happening, and Esmail put it in a clever and kind of funny way.
Read the synopsis and don't watch the trailer, the less you know about the plot, the better you enjoy it. I loved it.
To set the record straight, this movie is nowhere near "Woke." It deals with some of the issues covered authoritatively in the movie, "Judgment at Nuremberg" and several others, namely, when and why should you disobey orders, who can you trust, etc. Nothing new here. Just pretty fair entertainment.
Just a good simple thriller that is not over budget and dragged out. This film gets right into the plot and keeps you on the edge of your seat for the entirety, as it follows the group of astronauts at the ISS made up of Russians and Americans who notice what seems to be a war breaking out below, and after receiving a coded message from both countries chaos strikes into the plot. The characters are well casted, for the most part, and the plot twists are great. What was not expected was the humane message that it gave of how important it is as a human race to be there for each other and not let politics get in the way.
Holy hell, people, please lower your crazy high expectations for M Night. It's a perfectly good movie.
Really enjoyed the movie, even though some of the things mentioned do not follow their biblical similarities it is a nice way to keep the pace going and the viewer interconnected.
I love movies like this so 10 from me. Reminded me of The Man from Earth for some reason.Liked the second guessing are they crazy who is correct .The ending felt a bit dry tho.
.
No too bad, thought it was intriguing throughout. Next to no gore which was disappointing.
Batista’s acting actually impressed me!
Had fun with this one. No frills, no crazy twist, just a good old fashioned popcorn flick.
Really enjoyed it. Cracking plot. Could of been more gory
If you want to watch blood and gore, skip it.
If you want a move that will make you think, definitely give it a go.
I love M. Night and i love when he puts out a new movie. I will always watch his movies and shows.
This is actually quite good. It's not great, but if you're in an M. Night mood, this'll scratch the itch. I suspect that much of the criticism of this film on Trakt is due to Trakt's persistent problem with the anti-woke crowd downvoting films/series that either they haven't watched or films/series, like this one, that accurately depict the world.
This is an average film. If you're in the mood for atmospheric horror, your time won't be wasted. If you are not in the mood, watch something else, and if you're a conservative, QUIT REVIEWING FILMS BASED ON YOUR BIGOTRY AND POLITICS. I'm sick of it.
I was expecting another home invasion horror, but it was so much more.
I really enjoyed this one.
More like a 7.5, but I'll round up to 8. Regardless, I really enjoyed this movie! I was hesitant because sometimes M. Night does too much (specifically Old and Avatar come to mind). But this was a really well executed movie. Gripping all throughout, thought provoking, emotionally evocative. I'm truly glad I went to see this movie
If you are a M. Night Shyamalan hater you are going to automatically hate this movie. If you re a fan then the opposite. Was this a good movie? Hell yeah this was a good movie. I definetly recommend a MUST WATCH!
Interesting from a modern version of the bible (the four horsemen of the apocalypse) .. in my opinion, very good.
Not M. Night Shyamalan's best movie, but a satisfactory movie that succeeded in what it was trying to do. The tension was established quite early in the movie, and it never let up until the very end. I will say the end of the movie did leave with more to be desired, but I can't say the movie didn't keep me watching throughout.
Crazy. Good. Flick. it's a revenge story set in 1983 A.D. think of it as a blend of Blue Ruin, Lost River & Officer Downe.
80's vibes out the Wha-hooo! Well made flick right here 10 out of 10! Must-see of 2018
I really love Red Miller (Nick Cage) and love that Bill Duke is in this flick as well!!!!
Panos Cosmatos did amazing work!! A very lsd-laced trippy atmospheric thriller. top notch!!
Let's hope then on a rescue mission by one of the streaming services.
Seems like USA network already have up against them, when Temptation Island is more promising for them (Variety).
Minus one storyline (the married couple), I found this show to be rather solid. It does take a few episodes to get into it and make sense of all the characters, the different timelines, but once you do, it's very pleasing. It's a shame this was cancelled because it could have a good three seasons run. I loved hearing all the languages and watching the different storylines merge together.
this thing is EPIC !!! IT CAN EASILY BE THE NEXT GOT, the story is fantastic and addictive, best thing that came out of 2020 lol
wow this is superb top acting all around including the children, great story.
Never gets old. One of my favorites. The social satire, with the ultraviolence and cool sci-fi story is just the perfect mix of fun. Plus all the great character actors and kick ass designs... I love this movie.
Non. Stop. Action.
Despite other naysayers, I absolutely loved this movie. The 20 minute car chase in the beginning was one of the best I've seen. It definitely had a nod to the '80's action films where it was all about the action and one liners and never took itself seriously. We need more movies like this.
Dumb dialogues, even dumber decisions. "Based on a true story" certainly doesn't prevent that Mr. Bay fucks up whatever sad rest of a story he keeps in his movies.
Black Hawk Down was a masterpiece, 13 Hours is average at best. And that they both achieve 79% on trakt, is nothing but an insult to BHD.
