Review of Mary

Mary (I) (2019)
4/10
Abandoned at sea (unfinished movie I guess?)
14 October 2019
Warning: Spoilers
Mary 2019 started good, but as it went on it started having problems.

The playground for the spirit is not that big and thus people just teleport all over the place. You can never tell where anyone is and they just jump out randomly.

The whole isolation at sea thing is underdeveloped, they never do anything clever with this. The spirit's intentions are also unclear, sometimes it possesses people and makes them suicide, sometimes it makes them do something else. Sometimes it appears physically and does something on its own. It looks like they wanted to put every spirit ability into this. It's just confusing. You have to establish what your spirit can or cannot do in order for this to work.

Overall the movie feels disjointed, random and the ending is supposed to indicate that they were unable to finish it due to a hurricane (I guess). Or something like that.

It had potential with some scares and claustrophobic environments but as it seems it was never finished and was probably rushed to release.

If I'd want to watch an isolation sea horror I'd go and re-watch Below (2002). This one is not even a movie per se.
