Critters: A New Binge (2019)
Horrible in the best way
It wasn't well made, the dialogue was delivered badly, the acting was monotone and the effects were cheesey. However, this movie, like other great bad films such as Sharknado, this movie was self aware. Despite it being cheesey and low budget, it made me laugh many times. A fun time all around.
Bird Box (2018)
Great movie that plays the fear factor right
This movie doesn't deserve such a negative response. It's like a mixture of The Happening and A Quiet Place, and the concept is done really well. The idea of a suicide inducing monster is explored in a creepy fashion in the beginning, and then the idea of the human response to these monsters and how it's just as bad as the monsters us also done well.
Many of the plot concerns that many people have noted on here I felt were explained well enough in the movie and weren't really issues in the first place. It's not meant to be a truly horrifying film, it's meant to be a creepy thriller that plays on human emotions, as thrillers do, and I think it does it really well. My main issues were how slow a couple or the parts were and the dialogue felt almost too cut up, although that was the style the film was going for.
In the end, it's a fun and thrilling movie with a great cast and an interesting concept.
