Your Monster (2024): A Charming Beast Lost in a Genre Jungle
My Neighbor the Monster is a film that, despite a few strong moments, leaves an impression of missed potential. The idea of an imaginary monster helping a woman confront her inner demons and life crises is powerful on paper, but the movie doesn’t fully capitalize on it. It’s amusing and occasionally moving, but it falls short of being a full-fledged horror-romantic comedy. Melissa Barrera and Tommy Dewey deliver solid performances, but even they can’t escape the genre’s clichés.

The Hangman might appeal to fans of B-movies, where absurdity, limited budgets, and quirky storytelling often intersect. However, those expecting a serious horror experience should look elsewhere.

So, should you watch Werewolves? If you’re a die-hard fan of the genre, enjoy laughing at cheesy plot twists, or need a movie for a lively group night with popcorn and running commentary, then sure, give it a shot. But if you’re looking for a serious horror film that will make you think or shiver in fear, you might want to look elsewhere. Werewolves is less about immersing you in chilling suspe...

    I recently watched the original version, then the 2024 version, read the book, then re watched thw 2024 movie. I love it all... especially the book, except tte ending because King is as good at writing endings as he is at picking political party

    I just watched it yesterday. The acting is OK. The cinematography is good. The special effects are pretty good. The premise is cool. As a matter of fact, the first 3-5 minutes makes you think this might be a really cool movie...then it gives you almost all the bad movie tropes and logical consistency of a sharknado movie. It's SOOO STUPID. I love werewolf movies, but they made the writers of Morbius look like geniuses in comparison. The only thing that could have actually saved this movie is if they had taken jabs at it and made it a werewolf parody movie. Like a Scary Movie version of a werewolf movie. If it was intentionally poking fun at it's self, complete with 4th wall breaks and everything, that would have at least made it funny. Instead, it's just CRINGE AF. This was the first movie we have seen in a long time that my wife and I nearly walked out on.

    I saw it yesterday. I was expecting sing along music and upbeat content, flowing from lessons of kindness and making the world a better place, That is not what I saw. Too much dancing, too close of relationships between the main characters, more like falling in love than just friendship. Even the wizzard left me cold and wondering. I wanted the old story, that we are better together, that we all are born with courage and love in our hearts, and I didn't get that. So I left early.

      In reality, artificial intelligence, as it is often portrayed in movies-with consciousness and emotions-does not exist. There are advanced programs that help create voiceovers (as in this case), generate texts, or process data. These are just tools. Not everyone is born a great speaker, but such technologies help bring ideas to life!

    Probably the dumbest film in the series. Dude can't take a shuttle out to the Nexus? Can't wait for it in a spacesuit? Has to destroy a star? Pitiful. He can track it so well, he can tell where it will go if he destroys a star, but he can't just travel to it? I love Star Trek, and this was the worst until Discovery came along and killed all hope.

    I have been a Star Trek fan since 1991 and i can say that this was one of the most epic Star Trek films in the entire franchise, as it created a continuity from the original series and the next generation, even though those efforts had already been made in The Next Generation series. Other amazing films in the franchise were Star Trek IV The Voyage Home, Star Trek VI The Undiscovered Country, and Star Trek VIII First Contact.

    Great great movie. Id been seeing in my queue for the longest time and would keep going past it because of the subtitles and the lemgth but when i finally watched i couldnt believe how many times id overlooked this gem. By this point i really hadnt seen much horror that wasmt american or english, but i became convinced after seeing this i was nissing out on a world of just much better made horror movies, not just like jumpscare slasher torturecorn. korean horror(other asian countries also make great horror as well im now just getting into somewhat as im pretty picky about what kind of horror story im looking for) is amazing, and tbis movie in particular, to anyone who hasnt seen this thats also american i promise you the subtitles and lemgthy viewing time are worth it, i mean the whole movie is good but the last 45 min or so of tbis movie is some of the best filmmaking ive ever seen in terms of making you feel the weight of the protagonists circumstances and choices.
