I found it to be a well-crafted film. The cinematography was commendable, with visually engaging scenes that were thoughtfully composed. M. Night Shyamalan's direction was solid, delivering a coherent narrative while showcasing his daughter's musical talent on stage, a personal touch that added depth to the project. The score complemented the film effectively, enhancing the overall atmosphere. ...
What a great movie. Not a single moment in this movie was boring. Nowadays it's really rare to make movie so interesting and also clean from woke propaganda. Definitely deserves high ratings from me.
Truly Dreadful. I didn't realise that the main theme of this film was explicit nepotism until I saw that Shamyamalan cast his own daughter as the female lead / singer / star in a somewhat vain attempt to launch or boost her career. But apart from that, this film just does not make sense. At all. Ever. The dude who spills the beans (no spoiler as it's in the trailer) .. I mean .. how on earth does ...
The first half of the movie was suprisingly good, the plot, ambiance, music and suspense. Then it totally changed into a commercial thrill movie with expected twist.
Did M. make a whole movie just to promote his daughter's music career? Maybe. Do I mind? Not so much. Makes him a better father than Jackie Chan. I take offense to the movie being hilariously bad though. I'm disappointed because I thought this was a horror movie. The tagline is misleading. It should read "A father takes his daughter to a concert, only to realize they're at the center of a dark ...
Over the years I'd say my personal opinion of M. Night Shyamalan‘s work, is somewhat mixed. Trap however, leaves no room for compromise. In my opinion, its simply poor. Why? Its scripting and associated characterisations, lack depth and intelligence. Okay, the idea of a setting an elaborate trap for a serial killer, in a concert, is interesting.Yet, in spite of the fact the main character ...
M. Night Shyamalan is a director that I've struggled to appreciate. Despite giving his movies multiple chances, I've found most of them to be lacking in some way. Even films like "Old" started strong but fell flat with their endings. I continue to try to grasp Shyamalan's vision and goals in the cinematic realm, but his tendency towards over-the-top and confusing plots often makes it challengin...
What a ridiculous movie. Cooper spends the entire time behaving in the most bizarre and suspicious way possible, the FBI and every other law enforcement agency have handed operational control (including storming in and tazing a suspect) to a profiler, and he's allowed to escape multiple times by the most breathtaking incompetence on the part of LEOs. Nothing about this movie is believable, the act...
