Review of Old (2021) by Maxpayneisgod — 06 Jun 2022
Within 4 minutes I'd figured out the "cautionary tale" Shyamalan tried to sneak into the first act. The ending, whilst thought provoking, slightly, just doesn't live up to the build up.
You know Shyamalan movies, they ALL have a twist, but when you're a one-trick-pony, your trick better be very, very good. And his trick aren't good, not since Sixth Sense. A long, long, time ago.
The actors are all garbage, but its not their fault, the writing is worse, the characters reactions, or lack thereof, are laughable, they simply do not react in a way that someone would if this was actually happening to them.
OLD is mediocre, there's just no other way to say it.
