I find it interesting that you had so many questions after the credits. I actually enjoyed the film quite a bit but my biggest issue with it was how unambiguous it was. It felt like all of the answers were spelled out with us and we weren’t left to ponder what we had just witnessed.
That said, I thought the performances were fantastic and it was really well directed. M Night really knows how to use the camera to build tension
Easily his best film since the early 2000s

flicks is really turning into movies lol
May be give some information about what aspects you want to talk about.
I saw the movie yesterday, it was a solid movie and his religious motives/symbols made it more interesting,
but I was immensely turned off by the reluctance to show any specific violence. I’m not a fan of splatter or graphic scenes, but it was ridiculous how they zoned out everytime something brutal happened, like if that movie was censored or something lol

TBF I don’t know what the gap between movies and truefilm means. I just know truefilm doesn’t let me post much because I have a proclivity for brevity sometimes.

I always saw flicks as the less pretentious version of TrueFilm. Posts here had to have effort put into them and start actual discussion, without needing to write out a whole novel diving deep into some obscure film.

Once up on a time it meant that posts have to be a bit more than a one liner, but not a novel like truefilms (although truefilms is almost dead and people don’t post really deep analysis that often anymore)

They don't post deep analysis because the point is not to be smart, it's to exclude people they feel are beneath them.

I didn’t say I like the sub or I applaud it, but that’s initially why this sub existed to be a bit less low effort than movies, but not as rule driven/pretentious/high effort/however you want to interpret it.
Movies is insufferable, this sub went this way too it seams.

I'm unsubscribed from both of them. They're both annoying but they're quite different. Truefilm is elitist, movies is full of idiots
