STOP LISTENING TO CRITICS
6 October 2023
I enjoyed this movie for what we got. If you're going into this movie expecting The original Exorcist all over again, you're going to be disappointed. Stop trying to match it up with that. David Gordon Green is not William Friedkin. 2 different directors, 2 different styles, 2 different eras of film making. Expecting the same kind of movie to come out 50 years later is not possible. The acting is great, the tension is there, the music/score was great. Leslie Odom Jr. Was a great lead along side both girls, and Ellen did wonderful with what she was given. Give it a chance for what it actually is.

Mismarketed and disappointing
14 October 2022
Without spoilers, this movie is one of the most mis-marketed movies I've ever seen. If you watch the trailers, thinking you know what movie you're about to see, think again. Also, I thought this movie brought nothing new to the table as far as Halloween lore, and insightful explanations of pretty much any questions we may have had going in, and ultimately felt like a giant let down. Positives? Jamie Lee Curtis did a great job, I enjoyed the score, certain elements of the ending which I obviously can't get into here, and a few moments of good humor. Not the worst Halloween movie..

5/10 for me.
