Tyson D @Spudsprout 5 days ago (Overall Rating: 1.04/5) (Terrible) --- (Cinematography/Atmosphere: 1.75/5) The fade to black transitions made it feel as if we were cutting to commercial. The camerawork was fairly boring and awkward. The "death" scenes were ok --- (Storyline/Plot: .75/5) Absolutely silly. So inconsistent. Mind numbingly pointless. --- (Acting: 1/5) It seemed like everyone was given a secret card on how they were supposed to act. Almost like an improv show. No cohesion, not good acting. --- (Character Quality: .5/5) If the acting was bad, the writing for and of the characters was downright terrible. --- (Entertainment Value: 1.25/5) I kind of just wanted whatever was Happening to just end. I will say that it starts Happening as soon as the film starts. --- (Expectations vs. Reality: 1/5) I watched this when it came out and dont remember it being this bad. Going in I was thinking the same thing but now I see why all the adults around me said it sucked. See more Derek T @RT18988902 Oct 8, 2026 This is a contender for one of the worst movies of all time. It’s something you’d find on free hospital TV or in a hotel room. I have no idea why anyone would seek this movie out, it’s boring, played out slop.

Sus personajes se sienten atrapados en una idiotez que tienen que seguir sacando adelante, pero parece que más por obligación contractual.

I get angry when I hear people say how ridiculous it is that plants could evolve to kill us. Not only is this an excellent idea for a film, but how is it any different than the earth shifting weather patterns? The goal is not to kill us, but to solve a problem we are causing. Also, I thought the casting was great. It felt very much like real people experiencing something crazy. Real people make stupid jokes in a crisis, or say disjointed things in a stressed state. I will argue this to my death - The Happening is a great premise, a great movie, and even deserves a sequel or reboot. See more Read all reviews
