Trap Movie Review | Shyamalan Does It Again 

Still think I'm going to catch this tomorrow for Josh Hartnett alone.

I think the police being stupid was the point 😮

Totally understand why you’re very mixed on that third act! I actually had a good bit of fun with this movie, and thought it was a pretty entertaining yet messy little cat and mouse flick. Definitely loses some steam toward the end and the conclusion is a bit undercooked, but as someone that hasn't vibed with M. Night Shyamalan for a while I was surprised that it worked for me. Great review, dude!

M Night has provided me with the 2 most frustrating movie theaters experiences of my life with this and Trap. Once the singer is trapped in the bathroom, I wanted to walk out. Also cops using tasers instead of guns? Lol

I 💙the beard.

Really wanted to love the film. Trailer looked great, M. night is always super creative, I Walked out of the film last night slightly disappointed. Excellent premise/concept, but just horribly executed. From the start, the film should’ve been a fast-paced, hour and 15ish min film where the entire story revolves around him just trying to escape while still being the best dad he can. Don’t need to include the rest of his family, his childhood backstory, etc. Keep the plot simple with Riley being that emotional center of the film. The film kinda wants you to root for him because of that emotional connection with his daughter, in spite of his crimes. Film could’ve been great - wasted potential sadly. Good video though you earned a sub

Shyamalan is not a good writer. He never has been a good writer. He struggles particularly with dialogue. His characters never seem like real people, and it baffles me that the industry keeps rewarding him for it.
