This movie loses half of it's score because they actually did kill a snake on camera. What the fuck man? You guys were filmmakers, you didn't know how to fake that shit? What's next? Every guy that John Wick shoots in the next film is going to actually be dead? I fucking hate that they killed the snake. Snakes are great. I see one around my work all the time. He doesn't bother anybody, he doesn't even try to scare people. People are just actually scared of snakes so they jump and scream when they see him. But it's not like he goes out of his way to jump scare them. He just wants to do some sun bathing.
The movie features a pretty good twist. This was a very influential film, blah blah blah. Kubrick released The Shining in the same year. A much better film I might add. But I think that The Shining is a much better film than any film. So here is where I present that I am not a real critic again.
So I watched this back in September. I'm publishing this review now because it is Halloween. Or maybe it's tomorrow. I don't know or care enough to google it. I am excited about binge eating candy and binge eating turkey next month. Then binge eating cookies in December. Then drinking in January. I work during New Years and make up for missing out on the drinking that night by drinking the rest of the month away.
The kills in this movie are pretty good. The movie has some genuinely scary moments. But you watch it for the title and for the experience. Then you realize that they senselessly murdered a snake in the making of the film and you just wish that you could wash that terrible taste that it puts in your mouth out. The movie is entertaining but I'd never own it and I'll never watch it again. Because I could be watching The Shining instead.
