The Deliverance Movie Review - It Didn't Deliver! 

This movie was so bad. The mom had absolutely no redeeming qualities. The acting was not bad but the story was so poor I couldn't finish it. I tapped out when Glenn Close said "Nappy p****". I would respect it more as camp or a parody.

I gave it 8 mins and I couldn’t see why it was trending as #1 so I shut it off

Never name your new movie too similarly to a classic film.

Watched it after seeing it #1 on Netflix. Can't for the life of me figure why it's in that spot. Shit was terrible 😂. Only thing I can thing of is that "stinky pussy" line that went viral 😂

This movie was straight 🗑️🚮

I'm starting to think Glenn Close is at her "Nicolas Cage paying off his castles" stage of life...

I watched it with my sister last night. We were both on our phones for most of the movie.

The movie felt like it was trying to connect the horrors of black poverty and dysfunctional families to supernatural horror. It failed. It just felt like a bad family drama with a few supposedly scary moments thrown in. It was not scary. It dragged on and on and on. I kept watching out of hope that literally anything impactful would happen. Nope. What a waste of two hours. Sunk costs fallacy on my part.

it’s ok not horrible Glenn kills her role

It's an unwatchable movie. Netflix trash dump of a movie. Junk like this is why I canceled my Netflix subscription long ago.

Your assessment of the mom is spot on, completely over the top and unlikeable. I saw about an hour and had to shut it off. Netflix is the equivalent of the straight-to-video section of Blockbuster.

The slow build and tense was good in the beginning but then it just became bad like really really bad. I never seen a movie drop the ball this bad I don’t think ever

Jordan Peele could've made this so much better. This film was made to appease people who like Tyler Perry movies.

Straight to the point ...It Sucks....great reviewer = new sub

Thanks Adam! Totally agree...this movie was TERRIBLE. They used every possession horror movie trope known to man. Glenn Close made me laugh though🤣

Glenn Close must need a paycheck.

Most exorcist movies are trash. People like the first cus it’s a “classic” 🙄 this one was actually good. Loved it

Your so right about this movie. It’s healing me to know someone else went through the experience of watching this as well. We will survive brother.

The Deliverance? More like "Return to Sender"

This is a compliment, Adam does movies is similar to Angry Joe: The worse the movie/product/game the better/funnier the review

The premise is completely unbelievable. Black folks are never the victims of hauntings cause they're incredibly religious and ghosts don't bother people that believe in Jesus

I also chance-watched it with the wife and felt the same way on all fronts. The only reason I stuck it out to the end was because it was so generic and derivative that I was convinced there would be some big twist/reveal/subversion/SOMETHING at the end to justify making such a generic and derivative movie in the first place...

This movie is made by AI and only liked by AI. ("people" yeah sure)

OMG THIS MOVIE IS WAS SO FUNNY AND I DON'T THINK IT WAS MEANT TO BE . LEE DANIELS HAS COMPLETELY LOST HIS WAY. SUCH TALENTED ACTRESSES WERE WASTED IN THIS NIGHTMARE

The Apostles was ridiculous. She really did not believe that sh@t & the 1st family story was just kinda thrown in there. It sucked.

A bald Glenn Close was the scariest thing about this movie.

I mean the movie is based on a hoax made up by the crazy mom to get out of paying the extremely backed up overdue mortgage and her kids’ constant truancy. So it’s no surprise that the move itself would suck.

The Christian community told me not to watch it, so I didn't. After listening to people that saw the movie, I realize how good God is 😂

I won’t lie, your review had very valid points, however I totally loved this movie and i don’t know why 😂😂😂

We watched this a few nights ago. I fell asleep. So boring!

Discount Amityville, Exorcist, Conjuring ripoff. Total trash

They had Omar kissing and rubbing all up on the mom…. I will never unsee that

Sorry you didn't like it, I actually enjoyed it though the end wasn't that great. The acting was on point. Maybe it's a Black thing, lol.

I enjoyed this one. I liked the dynamic of the family. It's a possession movie in a different social setting. Which I enjoyed. Not a farmhouse in the Midwest. Glenn close and the daughter had good chemistry portraying a strained mother and daughter. It was shot well l liked the dreary rain scenes..it was enjoyable for a one and done film. Good review Adam.

Right there with you, Adam. I wanted to love this film but the screen writer's characterizations, in particular, perplexed me. Keep doing what you do. I enjoy both your RU-vid channels.

Watching Glenclose be cringe was the only entertainment in the movie 😂 love the channel keep the reviews coming my man!!!

Watched. Didnt like it. Boring. Too slow. Thank you

I enjoyed it. Really good horror film ive seen in a while.

Okay. Won't be watching it. Thanks Adam

I’m an actor and I got an audition for this movie for the kid

This was a Lee Daniels movie on Netflix. I love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love watching your videos ESPESH (short for ESPECIALLY) when you hate the film 🤣 If someone sat with me and watched one of your reviews for the first time, they might say "why are you watching this guy? He's not a movie review where he's like a comedian" .."what is he abbreviate random words and then right away tell you the word he just abbreviated?.. that takes more time than just saying the word?" They are being unforgiving.. they are not understanding your style and your context. Lee Daniels is the mind that gave us the television series "Empire" on Fox.. he's two steps up from Tyler Perry.. When you watch his TV or movies you were watching for the performances.. the plot is tertiary. First is, performances and second is race. He makes his stuff to touch a particular audience. So I went into the movie knowing that it would be less than what I would want from a typical haunted House story.. I went in to watch the performances.. That is why he is getting acclaim online.. For instance, I didn't realize that was Glenn close until 25 minutes into the movie So, I understand what you are saying and technically you are correct.. but please understand the context (I spoke this into my phone so please forgive any grammatical errors I think my phone is Japanese)

I could only manage to watch 20 or 30 minutes. I didn't even get to spooky shit.

I'm confident with the way Black Twitter is dragging this movie. They're basically saying this is as bad as or worse than a Tyler Perry movie. I agree with your entire review and am beginning to think that Lee Daniels hates Black women as much as Perry does. Since "Precious," people have been pretending that he's an excellent director when in fact his movies are consistently bad.

Yah. Movie wasn’t made for you. You see tropes and others see authenticity.

This movie was terrible

It was boring

This movie will make you squeal like a pig

The intro's done now? It SUCKS! Ah ha ha ha ha haaaaaaa Well done--thanks for the laugh, man.

Of course not.

It’s a Christian movie. There’s explicit language but they’re just promoting the religion. A waste of my time.

We've seen it all before: - It's a mixture of "The Omen," (child demonic possession) "The Exorcist" (possession, with levitating in the air), and "Evil Dead," with demons speaking aloud, "Join us, we want you." A very unremarkable movie. I'll drop a recommendation: *"The Devils," - 1971,* with Oliver Reed & Venessa Redgrave. The movie is based on a real township (in the 1700's), Loudon, France. Warning, as it has graphic portrayals of violence, sexuality and religion which ignited harsh reaction from censors and was X-rated in the UK and the USA, while being banned in many other countries, with the country of Finland lifting the ban in 2001. Upon hearing about the movie, "The Devils," I purchased the VHS tape in 1999 and watch it approx. once per-year. It's one you'll never forget.

I would like the record to reflect… I slam milk like that all the time. That said, the movie was unwatchable trash.

It was ok. Much better than what I heard Nefarious tried to do. I'm still waiting for a good Christian horror film.

Great video Adam, as usual! Did you see the trailer for Super/man: The Christopher Reeves Story? What did you think of it?

Could you just explain films? You make them sound better😂. I'm not sure how people keep being fooled by these repetitive films. I think most of these films trade on name recognition therefore we MUST support them (Tyler Perry) and using the terms "based on a true story". "Deliverance" was a great film. I hate the grape scene. Hollywood has been doling out some films with the equivalent of shaking keys in the viewer's face this year. Hollywood please STOP making films two to four hours long! We don't have that

Keep up the good work with the rants which as a movie and music myself I rant all the time about why the music and movies suck in my opinion

I thought it was interesting until it wasn't. I like the main actress and Glenn Close. The little boy was terrible.

Glenn Close is never getting an Oscar now 😢

Adam, it’s almost fall and we are all excited for Halloween. That’s why it’s popping. Perfect time to release it.

Your review has me dying of laughter. This film sounds absolutely absurd. 🤣

Could of been worse I guess, based on the title it could of been a Deliverance reboot or legacy sequel lol

So in summary. The Deliverance is your favorite movie of 2024 so far 🤔

The children in the movie were the most ungrateful ones I’ve ever seen

My partner and I just watched this movie! Your right it was terrible. Although I will say I do know mothers who act like the mother in this movie. Always on 10 when everyone else is at a 2. Cussing and overreacting to everything.

the funniest part about this movie is that none of writers or producers could think of a better or original or not so completely lame or blatantly ripping off the old classic, name for it.

Your critic of the cinematography and production quality is acceptable, however, you sound like you were expecting every character to be well-behaved and make great decisions. It is movie not an instructional documentary.

I thought this was going to be a totally different movie when I saw your title

Great review man

100% agreed. This was HORRIBLE.

Deliver us from this crappy movie! 😆

Just watched it. It's a bad movie.

I need to watch this… for a good laugh.

Around the 7 minute mark, as soon as you mention mosquitoes, one flies right past your mouth. So you better go check that out.

My thoughts exactly. This was a hard watch

Two words: The Happening.

Sounds like something interesting? Don't suppose they'll "deliverance," me, a pizza? Huh.

I like his opinion.

Deliverance is a documentary about the south. Sincerely, Wisconsin.

I couldn't believe how unlikable this mother was. Poor Glen Close, I guess it's true that once you get to a certain age in Hollywood that you will accept any role...

Tx!

I enjoyed it

Black people, we gotta do better! Think of Kamala...lmbo

The movie is actually good

So you didn't accept the signature

Yeah it was poor, but i did watch because Netflix ranked as most popular movie in my country. It seems like a cheap evangelical Christian copycat of exorcist.

I don’t think this is a movie you would understand…. You would have to be a single black mother to get it….. like seriously .. please don’t rate these type of movies

It’s actually a good movie. Your review is not on point.

You and me both dude. It feels like being a salmon swimming up stream and once you get there, finally? So many rotten eggs!? Ugh so frustrating what people are willing to subject themselves to nowadays. Take my money please! The choir sings. Ugh! 😩

Adam i love you're personality you're so damn funny! i showed my husband you're videos we are now both huge fans! You just got two subs! ❤❤❤

One of the worst movie I seen in a while.. I love ur take on this garbage 🤮😵‍💫🥱until I watched the Watcher

I just finished it. It was entertaining. Definitely better than the past few exorcism movies that came to theaters lately 🥱
