You should write a review, DbD

Godzilla vs Kong (2021) Saw it in two parts. Just letting it soak in.

It took me a while to get into it, but it was pretty good oveall and the end certainly delivered. Not a genuine classic, but a good way to spend an evening.

I know what you mean; I have a lot of those movies "on the list". So you were actually able to make it all this time without knowing about the ending?

Yep, The Others is a slow-paced film; one has to sit in and relax. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Minor classic I'd say.

I didn’t like The Boy. Not really the same horror genre either.

The Others and The Innocents would make a good double feature.

I (very) vaguely knew how they would end up, but no exact details about the reveal. It is one of those flicks where the motto is "the less you know, the better". Otherwise, you will start interpreting things in function of what you already (think you) know.

Minor classic, indeed. A lot of things I liked about it.

Double Feature of two slow and very similar films? Comon Man! that won't sell tickets.

A good double feature is like Poltergeist (1982) and Firefox (1982).

If you HAVE to have The Others in a double feature, which I would never bother doing... I'd to go The Others and Scanners or Cabin in the Woods.

Honestly, I was pretty disappointed. I thought it was dumb.

Oh, is that how it works. My bad.

And rather forgettable too. The 'human story' doesn't get in the way of the CG monster fights, which looked good, had some well-choreographed fighting, and was fairly creative. The human stories and plotlines were awful, shallow, unfunny, unsuspenceful and without much heart. It deserved a much better script.

I'm just here to set you straight. Maybe a good pairing with The Others would be Eyes Wide Shut or The Crying Game.
