This has got to stop
I feel like this about most movies since 2017I feel like I can piece together all these trailers and make the entire movie.
Apparently, the movie surprised everyone up until the third act.Is it good?
One of those movies that I enjoyed while watching but gets worse the more I think about it.
Octavia carries it. Great performance by her, at times she was hilarious (the scene with her and the old lady at the nail shop lol) other times she was creepy. She was also really sympathetic when you find out what happened to her.
But I found her motivation to be inconsistent. They implied at first that she just wanted some friends to make up for being a loner in high school. But then you find out that the whole thing is a revenge plot. But the two don’t really merge together. So she just happened to stumble on the kids of her high school bullies? Would’ve made more sense if she was stalking the kids from the beginning.
Also I know it’s a thriller movie but got damn these kids were stupid. Like the second white girl knows Ma is crazy, sees all those pictures, yet she still went back to her house to party after all that? Lol. It’s like the writers sacrificed the logic of the characters for the plot to move along.
Also, they made it seem like the kid’s father saw Ma for the first time since high school. But haven’t they both lived there for years?
Idk movie seemed like a good 2nd draft of a script but it needed a rewrite. But Octavia was good enough to elevate mediocre material.
I also like how they made the racial aspect subtle, especially with her being such an outcast as a teenager. The only blatant part was her telling the black dude “there can only be one of us” at the end.
