TRICK 'R TREAT (2009)

"Wasn't really worth the hype. "

Alright, for a movie that took two years to finally get a straight-to-dvd there is a hint that it isn't going to be the greatest. The movie wasn't. It had cheesy stories to it and it wasn't all that interesting. The acting is terrible and the movie was WAY too short. Not feeling the hype some others were, I had a feeling that this would suck...was I correct? Kind of.. This wasn't 100 percent terrible but it was about 65 percen. This is definatly a 'base your own opionon' type movie. I see that some people on Movieweb liked this, that's fine with me, but In my opinon, I would have to tell you readers to base this yourself because I thought it was just okay.

ACTING:

Like I said, I didn't like the acting for this one at all. All the performences were dull and badly performed in my opinon and as for the acting for this movie, it was a definate strike-out. ACTING=BAD

VISUALS:

The visuals were alright. Nothing too special. Some of it was cool but it wasn't great. I can't complain too much about the visuals, though.

DIRECTION:

The direction was alright. Nothing too much to complain. Camera wasn't too shaky but it was dark at times. But, hey, that was the giss of the movie.

THE GOOD:

Some of it was okay. Not all was bad. I really enjoyed the last twenty minutes and some of the middle. This isn't entirely a BAD movie. I actually did kind of like it but just not that much.

THE BAD:

The bad was just manly the acting and how short it was. I also found it to start off kind of dullish but towards the last thiry to twenty minutes the movie actually gets pretty good.

OVERALL:

OVERALL, I think this was okay. Nothing too special in my opinon. Nothing worth five stars and it wasn't worth the wait, in my opinon. BUT, I think I have to say base your own opinon on this one.

THANKS FOR READING!

I haven't seen it, but this is the second time I've heard it was weak. The other time, was when I read it from Newkill.

Damn shame a good movie title had to be attached to a donkey of a film.

I'm sorry, I just didn't care for this. SAW is my absolute favorite horror series [in this decade] right now and to tell the truth, I agree with Crypt, this movie made no sense at times. I'm glad YOU liked it but I just found it okay. Nothing special.

How on earth did you give every Saw movie after the first (which I love) a better score than this film? Trick r' Treat is an incredibly well thought out anthology with some beautiful direction and cinematography--and an excellent use of Marylin Manson's remix of The Eurythmics "Sweet Dreams" song. This one was clever; every Saw after the first is a test in tolerance regarding awful storylines, more holes than swiss cheese, and twists that are just downright laughable--and the acting in the Saw franchise is FAR worse than anything Trick r' Treat commits. Trick r' Treat isn't the best thing out there, but it definitely deserves massive props for all of the things it does so right.
