Cooper Legion Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 99 letsgooooooooo Spoiler Seriously we just need 15 more fresh in a row and we’re there. If you model reviews as i.I.d. and use a beta(.5,.5) prior then there’s a 65% chance we’ll get there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much for the toxic wom people had been saying from countries where the film has already opened. Wouldn't say it had toxic WOM overseas, but certainly looked like more run of the mill horror reception. But then domestic/overseas critics and audiences don't really always agree (and well, critics and audiences in general don't always agree either). Really surprised it got such a warm welcome by US critics, anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 98% is the critical reaction, not the audience reaction. I would assume the general audience won't be nearly as blindsided by this as they were with Malignant so it should do alright.

ChipDerby Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Malignant was terrific. James Wan is a king. Literally revived the horror genre by himself. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiccup23 Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 96% fresh on RT. I am shocked it is that high. Hard to see this missing $20M. I'm thinking $25M-$30M now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krissykins Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) I love that his follow up to Fast 7 was Conjuring 2 and his follow up to Aquaman was Malignant. He doesn’t use horror, he loves it. Edited January 5, 2023 by Krissykins 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ill put it this wife, before we started getting serious following christ... We both loved these horror flicks.. And for reviews to say its a 98% film, that would mean this scifi/horror is better than films like the fly and childsplay... It felt very lackluster... Now our crowd was a matinee crowd, but man didnt feel like the type for repeat business brother Lucas. Though I hope it does well, its not a bad movie ... I would put it a few rungs on the ladder beneath that invisible man movie with Kevin Bacon. Just like I was telling Kayom, dont expect the fly level sci-fi horror or Childsplay1 level and youll enjoy it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty good but loses steam toward the end.. Gave it a 6.5 out of 10. I was comparing the sci-fi horror Film with Kevin bacon as the invisible man to it. That film is bit better than Megan in my opinion. I think the most recent invisible man is right on par with Megan in quality and pleasant suprises. Though Megan has more bells and whistles budget wise. Now its time to focus on Avatar 3D 4DX for my 2nd viewing Edited January 5, 2023 by Sheldon Cr Update 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
