I told Siri to pick a number between 1-5. She chose 2 so I will now set a timer for two minutes. I will write the rest of this review in the allotted time until my countdown reaches zero:
It’s no surprise that this movie is garbage. It goes down the checklist of horror clichés without fail.It’s not even remotely interesting, as it was extremely difficult for me to stay awake during. Honestly, the whole movie is just wack.
AND THAT ENDING. Abysmal.
The scariest part of this film was when they said the Marvel Universe might last for another 60 years.
I do not recommend you paying—

"I will be right there."
This is not the smartest film, nor the dumbest. It opens with some teens making fun of vegans. Then it follow Dr. Quinn Harris, Medicine Woman, as she and others download an app called Countdown and find out they don't have very long to live. Not as smart as Final Destination or Happy Death Day, I found it watchable and engaging despite the late showtime. Elizabeth Lail, who plays Quinn, is a very apt actress. I'd love to see her in something better some day. Talitha Bateman who plays Jordan, Quinn's sister, is also very capable, evoking Eliza Scanlen. But time will also tell if she is emotionally on par with someone of that level.…

Certainly nothing like the tv show.... Can I have a consonant please carol! That probably means nothing to people outside the uk.
Anyway the film was fairly average with a silly plot. I thought the cast was likeable, especially the lead and they did the best with what they were given. It’s just another jump scare one with nothing new in there.

Phone hacker Final Destination. This movie can suck my ass.
Tom Segura was fun though. -
Der Film von Regisseur und Drehbuchautor Justin Dec ist ein auf Teenies zusammengeschnittener Mischmasch, irgendwo zwischen Final Destination und V/H/S, nur eben nicht unbedingt gelungen. Gewürzt wird die hauchdünne Story über die Todes-App dann mit wirklich sehr vorhersehbaren Jump Scares, die wirklich niemanden zum Zucken bringen dürften. Eindimensionale Figuren, die sich nahezu alle unlogisch verhalten, somit hat man weder die Chance noch Lust sich auf irgendeinen Charakter einzulassen um mit diesen mitzufiebern.
Fragwürdige Schnitte und blutarme Kills machen das Szenario nicht unbedingt sehenswerter und die Hauptdarsteller Elizabeth Lail und Jordan Calloway wirken zu jedem Zeitpunkt verloren und unsympathisch, was nicht nur an dem schlecht geschriebenen Skript liegt, sondern das Schauspiel an sich, nicht besonders emotional ist. Die einzigen Lichtblicke sind…
