i loved the ending. She was treated like an alien since she was like, 10 years old. And now, she’s finally treated like a human by aliens.
She wasn't treated like an alien. She was treated like a murderer for murdering someone. Theres wires crossed in your brain if you think what the aliens did to her was humanizing.
I can relate
Still havent figured out how to talk to ppl like a normal human, I mean person
I hated it. The aliens 100% would not have spared her
Also because she is a threat to them.
@@dantauche7917 EXACTLY!! Talk about glass-clear plot armor...completely unrealistic for them to spare her "just because"
I kind of got the impression (just from this video) that the aliens tried to put her in a happy memory, but since she was outcasted, the only happy memories she had were from before Maude died. But she was so overcome by grief that Brynn knew it was fake and so the illusion couldn't last.
When the aliens captured her and went through her memories, they were trying to find out why they couldn't keep Brynn under like the others. But by doing that, they allowed Brynn to come to terms and move on from her grief. So she became happier after the aliens arrived, and they realized that she was happier awake and content in an alien takeover than if they were defeated and life turned back to normal. The aliens understood she would never fight to regain something that made her so unhappy when she could live freely in this new reality.
Wrong ,but right.
The aliens saw humans being self destructive. And intervened.
Bri had done got over self destructive tendencies and evolved to fighting and killing ONLY as a self defense mechanism. Like the aliens.
The rest of her town was naturally hostile
She was a 200 percent true person.
She had done killed. And that changed her. She would only do it for self defense purpose.
She did it in self defense and still felt regret.
What more is there to teach such a species?
She was a human pocahantas( I know I am misspelling. )but more violent to aliens.
It was like if humans saw an island of monkeys with guns, about to go nuclear.
And only one of them was smart enough in all mental aspects to be considered an equal.
@redfishbluefish5151 Yea that makes most sense.
I wonder how many of the aliens are controlled by parasites and how many, like Brynn, chose to live with them by free will.
I guess all those we've seen, with the crooked and stiff movements, are being controlled.
Pretty good storytelling and a perfect example of what happens when you cast someone out and continue to discriminate them. Eventually they won't see themselves as a part of your society anymore and happily sell you for anything slightly less bad.
@@user-sd3dw9fl2qwrong it’s not that hard to read the directors notes on the main idea behind the movie
I can admit to being wrong. About them being benevolent aliens. They are invading, just unlike those in independence day and ect. They might be looking for a new home and thusly, won't start fires but would put them out.
But, why did they spare the main character? The notes never said jack sh!t on that, from what I have read.
This makes a lot of sense.
The lack of actual dialogue, and pulling it off, is one of the aspects that elevates this movie for me. Accomplished plenty of exposition of Brynn's past, with very short flashbacks, without some ham fisted expository dialogue. That's refreshing.
Yes, the producers really nailed the fundamentals of film making. Show not tell is definitely a lost art today.
I agree with both of you 100%. Another cliche would have been waiting until the last 10 min to show/explain everything therefore ruin any chance of interpretation from the audience and basically blowing our birthday candles out for us. Sometimes ambiguity and a lack of dialogue can work in favor if the other elements are flawless. 😊
I disagree and felt the lack of dialogue was a distraction and in no way enhanced the film. Movies like “Hush” and “A Quiet Place” earned their use of no dialogue by setting up a world in which it made sense that the characters wouldn’t talk. This however felt like a filmmaker using a gimmick and a schtick to make their film unique. There are some good ideas here, but overall the film didn’t work for me.
Thats what made it great to me very few words and it work
i Agree. i couldnt watch past 30 min cause it anoyed the hell out of me that it seems she was guided in making moan/grund noices to fill out the dialog. if they atleast just had a reason for being quiet it would make sensce. @@birthdaybatter815
I wanna bring up the beginning where she’s vibing in her home (7:00 in the movie) and with the phone call that she picks up and immediately hangs up. With the subtitles on, you see that she’s getting vicious hate calls. And she’s been receiving those so much she knows that’s all her phone calls are. It was just a quick subtle detail that really adds to her isolation and I can’t stop thinking about it
Yes! And she didn't even bother to get a cellphone because that would just mean more hate calls.
@@suzybearheart530 I was confused for a while wondering what time it was set in. And the only thing that made me realize that was her freaking little flat screen tv lol. Like the phone even threw me off. Also was that garden giving you "A Quiet Place" vibes? Besides that lack of dialogue lol
Oh duh and the freaking Subaru lol
@@mbar9073Me too! It wasnt until my mom watched it with me a second time, and she noticed that it said on her mother’s gravestone that she died in 2019! I totally was thinking it took place in the 50’s maybe. But maybe Brynn is just into vintage clothing and such.
@@mbar9073def gave me quiet place vibes
Small detail: The less aggressive "curious" alien at 12:16 is the same one on the right side of the screen at 18:03. Notice the V shaped marking on its forehead. I wonder if this alien was turned from a species that was exceptionally empathetic and inquisitive. The turned humans became dumber and more brutish, but this alien was somehow able to keep its inquisitive nature.
Omg yessss I realized it was the same alien too!... it was also the same alien in the basement!
Or maybe it’s just a sick tatt yo
@@menmygeetar2024 Tatt copiers are the worst. Even extra-terrestrial ones
The scene at 14:57 shows several of the aliens with the “v”
Edit: my mistake, they are the same type with a “v” shape but it seems only one has the “v” tattoo and others have different markings.
@diplamatikjuan3595 everything has been done. So...
Did anyone else notice how the feral grey makes itself smaller and stares intently? Like a cat, stalking prey. Only moving once line of sight is broken, triggering its stalk and ambush instincts. Facing her head on, it sizes her up and attempts to look as small as possible, and then tries to
intimidate by pressing forward with flared claws and screams. It wants to attack her from behind, ensuring victory and its safety.
This is very intresting
but isn’t it that when an animal faces a predator head on, they try and make themselves look as large as possible?
Are you the same guy that wrote this on Roanoke's vid lol
Its not, dude copied it 💀💀💀
I thought it was a baby alien at first that hadn't learned to control itself very well - then it attacked her and I thought "okay, that's no baby!"
@@suzybearheart530 I was under the impression the small alien was the greys' version of an attack dog.
I kinda thought the little bulbs with tentacles were the true aliens. The possessed humans and the aliens moved like they were disjointed and cracked constantly. It actually wasn’t just the humans that were possessed, the big spider alien moved all clumsy because it was no different than the mailman thrashing on the bus.
So the bulb shows the possessed what they want to see while they take control and she was a rarity because no matter what she saw, she couldn’t accept forgiveness to herself.
The possessed aliens in the ship realize they cannot take control of her and yet they did not fear her. They realized she can be this sort of keystone of all humanities culture. They still wanna learn the earth world, and that’s why they hum the song. Purely out of interest.
It’s kinda like Stephanie Meyer’s the Host but without love triangles, just the alien domination part.
I really like this theory.
I thought that too! The aliens are infected with another alien! It's rather like the plot of the game House of Ashes
i also like this theory
Yeh, I thought that was the case. From memory it is even mentioned in this video that the "greys" are just a shell for the tentacled aliens.
I was coming here to post this. This is how I interpreted the movie. The bulbs took over several species and are just conquering everyone.
Can we all appreciate how great Kaitlyn Dever was in this movie?! She was absolutely amazing... there was no dialog, yet we knew exactly what she was thinking from her facial expressions. Just amazing!
My take on the ending of this movie is that "no one" did save her. No one being the aliens as they are...aliens. It is kind of a poetic movie as all throughout we see the main character struggling with guilt for murdering her best friend and the townspeople all shunned her for this. After seeing her memories through probing, the aliens decided that like them, she is an alien in her town and thus decided to save her.
Deep as a puddle.
I feel she's the only human left on earth
Every single human was also an "alien" to the aliens...so it's kind of idiotic to say that because the aliens were aliens to mankind that made them soooo empathetic as to spare her...when the aliens have their alien community lol...
@@en2336 yeah but the way they(townspeople) treated her was the same with the way humans treated them(aliens) so they kind of empathized with her in some way
@@deathkingray8123guess they just shrugged off her killing 3 of their members and ignoring their mind control then. A smarter writer would of had the aliens kill her off.
My mom pointed out that in the hulu description of the movie, they say that Brynn is someone that has been “alienated” by the people in her town. So we were thinking that the aliens somehow sympathized with her and the alienation she felt from other humans. Maybe that’s why they let her have alien friends at the end?
Humans treat them bad just like her. Yet she exists amongst them. And they also probably wanted to study her because of her resilience and ability to kill multiple of them.
I think the aliens were a really great metaphor for Brynn's grief and guilt over what happened to Maude. It is slowly but surely invading her life, tearing it apart piece by piece (the home invasion part). She cant escape it wherever she goes (the bus scene). No one wants to help her deal with the issue (police station scene) because everyone hates her. Everytime she catches someone's glance, she can see it in their eyes or hear it from their throat, as in the countless ugly and terrible things the townfolk have no doubt said about her or to her (the bodysnatchers). These feelings have even gotten so bad that it has caused her to think about or actually attempt suicide (the doppleganger). Then, when she is finally "captured" and her memories catch up to her (the abduction scene) she is forced to confront what happened head on. In the end, she in some shape or form forgives herself (her touching her younger self's hand) and because of that she is able to partially move on. The grief and the guilt are still their (the ufos in the sky during the last scene) and some people will probably never forgive her (everyone is still bodysnatched), but she has forgiven herself enough to build herself a world where she can be happy. Although judging by how dreamy and blissful the last scene was, im guessing its a superficial happiness at best.
Or, she could have just moved to a new town years ago and made some new friends. But, yeah, I like your idea better.
🤣
ya i super suck at getting 'deeper' meanings in movies but at no time did i ever think these aliens were 'real' or come from anywhere except her guilt and grief
ughhh thats boring
@@vijaz5559 ya it was incredibly boring
If you want a movie about grief watch The Babadook, this movie was so stupid except when it was being a creature feature, the excess was so overly bloated and thought it was saying much more than it was.
Like others here Im curious as to what the aliens wanted in the first place. The infected humans still go about their day normally and interestingly enough, they interact with and almost coddle her. Dancing with and waving at her. I also noticed that the aliens she fought with didnt always outright "attack" her but struck a pose almost as a greeting or sitting down, waiting and doing nothing to show that they mean no harm, some even trying to talk to her directly with their croaking. It isnt until she runs away or hides they try to incapacitate her. Even though she killed multiple of them they only sought to infect her, not outright harm her. I dont think they wanted to kill anyone as when infected, the humans are in a dream like state filled with happiness, the parasite possibly dispelling what pains them the most fulfilling their desire. But when they tried to give her back maude, she rejected it. Even though she killed her and it pained her the most, she would rather live in the real world, with maude dead, so they let her go, not knowing what else to do with her. Great film, a very fun watch. Most alien movies hide their aliens in the dark and in their ships but this was a refreshing change. Takes skill to make an alien invasion movie where you dont see the aliens killing or experimenting on anyone into a thriller.
They are probably benevolent, or wish to simply help species they come across achieve a better society.
If you think about it, even though they are “zombies” everyone is happy, working together, and society seems genuinely for the better.
The aliens also immediately retreat without any demands or interference, and simply watch from afar.
Resources and because they can. IMO
Makes no sense because her alien clone tried to gut her with a knife… So it did try to kill her.
Maybe the humans with parasites in them aren't just delusional/hallucinating, but actually locked inside their own mind while the parasite fully controls the body? If so, maybe they just turned earth into an alien colony - filled with flesh-mechs ready to be piloted.
Or maybe the parasites are somehow part of the aliens' life cycle, and the zombified humans are just walking incubators?
@@makisbizarreadventure4669I Think that scene was symbolic like in her head or something or a metaphor for what she’s doing to herself by not letting go of what happened or something like that
It looked like the aliens were trying to create a kind of blissful society via the aliens-in-throat hallucinations. However, Brynn refused to go under the influence (hence "no one will save you") and instead through the journey saves herself by going through the past events and realizing if given the chance she would have stopped her self. She also sees the grief in her writing those letters. The events allowed her to step outside herself and look at her journey (from childhood, to trauma, to grief). Brynn saves herself by understanding herself and forgiving herself and she can only do that by facing the events from the past with new/wiser eyes. Being that Brynn heals herself and is now more positive/vibrant, she didn't need to be overtaken by the aliens. Meanwhile, most of the townspeople didn't seem like happy people. Sure, Brynn did something horrible, but you have to be a pretty bitter person to feel you have to constantly "shun" or remind someone of the worst day of their life. So it seems like ironically they needed the alien cleanse more than Brynn herself.
The aliens where in control by the alien that when inside there mouth
If they wanted her dead they would kill her in the star of the movie
She stayed in the same small town that she KILLED the sheriff's daughter in, her friend, brutally. The town people looked at her like she was a murderer, plain and simple. She should've moved if she wanted to find friends.
In the corrupted sea of AI recap videos, I truly adore your channel. Your human perspective and retelling of these films' stories are analytical and extremely considerate, even when there is harsher criticism. Which only shows the level of care you put into recording, editing and producing these videos. Thank you.
I hate stumbling on an AI recap channels on shorts and have the balls to leave the recap in a cliffhanger and uploads part 2 a month later---
Yes! I hate everything about bot-narrated videos. From the misspellings on-screen to the poorly edited cutoff when they run out of time, etc. Kids are spamming UA-cam with so much garbage now. I appreciate actual effort so much more; and it shows he’s interested in the source material more than just dishing out large quantities of nothing.
@tikateeqa4825 I couldn't agree more! Or videos where the reviewer is SO SOLD on their own interpretation that they are completely unwilling to see the story, or even one minor part of the story any other way.
I remember getting into a long back and forth about genetics, and mixed race kids sometimes looking FAR MORE like one parent than the other (something I know intimately about).
ANYWAY it seemed like we went back and forth for MONTHS about whether or not if the Protagonist Father character "PAUL" could actually be the biological father of the Protagonist Son character "Travis" in the film "It Comes At Night". There was no reason AT ALL for the reviewer to even get side tracked about this minor detail, but the FILM had clearly established that Paul and Travis were TRUE biological Father/Son by showing that it was an a marriage between a Caucasian man and an African American Female, and even showed pictures of them prior to marriage, wedding photos, and the eventual pregnancy and the happy family all together with their newborn son photos.
But as far as was concerned it was IMPOSSIBLE, (because different skin tones and features), and not only was he completely wrong-- I couldn't even figure out HOW it became part of the review at all. "Mixed babies have been a thing for a LONG time... since way before I was born.... and I'm in my early 30s.... but WHAT the heck he was throwing out theories on THAT issue of ALL THINGS in that movie that are far more interesting to discuss is BEYOND me.
I eventually gave him a few more shots with other movies, but found him to be far to rigid to even listen to anymore... he always found some strange hill to die on because EVERYTHING had to have some "blow your mind" se ret theory, and he quickly became tedious.
I'm not saying you have to completely agree with the creator's every point to enjoy their videos, but at least add some personality, humor, and IF POSSIBLE; some talent in film, knowledge and/or film trivia (at LEAST), and you're far more likely to have an appreciative audience, ya know?
If I get suckered into clicking on a video about a film with an awkward AF AI sounding voice tryingto show their wacky personality quirks I am out of there SO FAST.
HONESTLY, this is one of the channels I've been subbed to the longest, because again, if you have an idea of wtf you're talking about AND happen to have a little charm or sense of humor watching your videos are not akin to getting your "WISDOM TEETH PULLED".
Your work IS appreciated @FoundFlix !😢
Goat comment!!!
@Bannedinlyfe hey, thanks! I guess I had to let that out!
Also, it occurred to me that I've been enjoying this channel for a decade and I never properly expressed it.
I try not to get too snooty about knowing each and every bit of lore, nor do I have to always agree with a Creator's interpretation to enjoy them. ( I have a strong background in Cinema myself), but I've ALWAYS enjoyed *THIS* channel.
I guess I was venting, but also trying to show this channel some love.
Kaitlin Denver was absolutely brilliant in this movie. When “Brynn” was stabbed I was holding my breath and struggling to breathe with her, she was that convincing.
Zero dialogue and amazing aliens, phenomenal sound and yet somehow Kaitlyns performance was the standout. Really enjoyed this movie.
I went into this movie knowing nothing about it or the actress and although the movie itself completely fell apart for me, it kept me entertained at least and I was actually impressed by the main character Brynn. I mean, sure, she _did_ the screaming thing, but only for a short while and then she got her crap together, took a deep breath while exploring and cataloguing her options and then she actually gets things done and prepares to defend herself. I thought, for instance, that the idea with keeping pots with boiling water on the stove was both seemingly simple and genius at the same time.
I guess in future discussions about female main characters and heroines, I will definitely use her as example for how a _good_ female lead is written and played, because both author(s) and actress definitely deserve kudos for Brynn. Nooo, she is not beating up men twice her size and thrice her weight and muscle mass. Nooo, she is not just acting like a man in a dress or never shows fear. She is aware of her physical weakness, so she stays cool and uses her smarts, her surroundings and what she has at hand as weapon. She is allowed to feel fear, to panic even, but she does not allow that fear to come between her and survival and is capable of pushing it aside when she must.
The aliens wanted to explore "guilt" and "regret". They presented to her Brynn with the scene of what she did and this time she yelled to stop her younger self. Proving she really did regret and felt genuine guilt. This was intriguing to the aliens.
The fact that the movie had 2 sentences kf dialogue was perfection. The complete TRUST the director had in this is wild and im here for it. A 10 outta 10, a banger, an unexpected one at that
Saw this film not too long ago. It's safe to say that it's one of my favorite alien movies now. And the way they pulled off having zero dialogue was brilliant. I wish more films could do that. The ending is a little vague, but it was a fun and simple thriller. I would actually like to own this movie.
Did anyone else think that when she “woke up from the dream” that it was going to end there on some b.s? I actually really appreciated the true ending of this film, I’m happy for her!
Not that it’s a super important detail of the movie, but I found the “hierarchy” of the aliens interesting. They’re not all just humanoid creatures. There was the smaller one that is maybe used specifically for close quarters combat, the large one, which came across as more animalistic, and the medium sized ones which definitely are on top the food chain in that society. They got the better of Brynn everytime except the beginning when she got lucky she was holding that sharp object the way she was
I think there is a "main" species that takes over other species minds and puts them in some sort of trance where they experience whatever they desire most. That being said any other alien you see is probably from a conquered or assimilated race from other planets that the "main alien" (the small one in the mouth) has already conquered, maybe? The movement of some of the aliens was very strange also, it wasn't streamline and smooth like you would expect it was more like say how a zombie or living dead would move. (at least how they are portrayed in our media) That makes me think that something else is in control of their bodies but who knows...I haven't watched it yet 😅
That tall one was hilarious especially when it just fell off the building lol
Actually, I remember hearing someone mention the different alien types have different roles. Like, remember how this was supposed to have a religious theme? The large alien was supposed to be a priest.
The aliens looked up at the end almost like asking the ship permission. What if they’re controlled by an AI? I definitely think the little tentacle parasites are the real aliens.
@@cosmicat320 why would AI need to look at someone to get permission, if that was the premise they are connected by some sort of give mind and will just do what the matriarch/patriarch needs it to do.
My guess is that the tentacle thing are the true aliens. They go into a body and turn the host into the little grey men look. That’s why there are so many different body types, they’re different hosts
Yeah I think you're right. I was thinking they were sort of like the ugh... Ga Uld (?) or whatever from Stargate. I think that is what they are called.
They are basically a predatory symbiote that required humans to survive. Since their offspring retained the memories of their lineage so they were hyper intelligent.
That would explain the different types. Maybe the Greys were biomechanic or they were a "conquered" species with sub species much like humans to Neanderthals on their home world.
My only gripe or question is why even need them when you apparently can yeeet a bitch with the powaaah of dah minnnnnnd! Nah better to go charge the hairless ape, and get stabbed!
A lot of people have that theory, I actually thought about it too at one point. However, I think it's either a symbiote or something the aliens can just produce themselves so they can take control of other living things.
If it was a parasite, the alien wouldn't be able to just spit up it's own parasite and give it to something else. I figure that this implies that the aliens don't actually need those things, and they can function fine without it, it seems to be more of a tool.
It's interesting when you compare the mailman bus scene to the big alien falling off of the house, there are similarities there that imply the throat thing controls the big alien, too.
Only thing is that you don't see this problem with the little alien and the telepathic alien. The telepathic ones have the weird cracking thing but it seems to relate to their actual biology, not a result of the throat thing controlling them.
As a whole, they might just be some kind of explorers, saviors, or something like that. The way every alien acts doesn't give the impression of warriors or soldiers, but something more benevolent or at least curious.
Your guess is hitting it right home. We have not seen a single concious alien throughout this movie, only those controlled by the hivemind through parasites.
Their crooked body movement kinda proves that too.
It looked like they used it to get the genetic information of whatever they use it on. Because when she takes it out we can see it reconstructing her body and self in the beam of light. That's where the clone came from. Plus, when the alien initially shot it out, it was still operating and even still had its telekinetic abilities to hold open her mouth.
though, when she killed the first alien, they put a lot of attention onto the parasite still being alive and leaving the main body, so maybe so
Ah yes, Yeerks
It makes me curious as to what the aliens were after. They took over the humans but continued mimicking human life with the zombified humans. Are they studying humans through the zombies? I'm curious.
Exactly. Poor writing.
@@dantauche7917 Not everything needs to have an obvious answer.
I understood it as like the aliens having happiness through unity,like a religion they all are all connected to a mind hive like mindflayers except they are very aggressive on how they convert people
The aliens are essentially spreading their religion, there are several “types” of aliens, all with their own throat parasites (like the one that crawled out the dead alien) the higher power they follow seems to communicate to them through the throat entity
@DavidSantos-ix1hu yup, exactly. Another way to look at it is that the aliens are preserving life and the planet as a whole because of or at least to understand it's diversity and uniqueness as any biologist or even archeologist would. With humans being quite destructive and resistant to change or unity due to a collective trauma, aliens would natural look to other means of control in order to preserve life and to grow to understand the human experience...and perhaps in time train them to be unified and preservers as well, allowing the aliens to no longer have to use the bodies as hosts to save humanity from itself.
Just what I took from it anyway.
I think the ending showed that the aliens finally understood what her zombified dream reality would need to be so she doesnt force out the parasite. I think the end shows her new reality while zombified by the parasite.
interesting thought
The director has already clarified that she is not zombified in the end
So the aliens finally comprehend the protag’s grief and she finds a way to co-exist with her community but they infect her anyway and we just don’t see that happen? That undermines the film entirely. 😆
Maybe she didn't deserved to be outcast by the town, so by understanding the grief she's having bacuase of this and her friends death, instead of having a little town maquette the aliens made the whole town a real life maquette and she is allowed to play with if that brings her joy.
That's not it at all 😆 not only was it confirmed by the director but that would nulle en void the entire 3rd act.
This movie was a religious themed movie. She was living in pain and guilt over killing her friend. When they caught her and she finally confronted her memory of the tragic event (with the tentacle thing inside her), she couldn't bear it and ran away, and then encountered herself in the forest. She slashed her own throat (i.e. the doppelgänger). That was a metaphor for suicide. And then she was pulled up into the spaceship for "judgment" where she was judged by the big eye, representing a supreme being, who then sent her to a sort of heaven where she was supremely happy. This movie was about forgiveness and that's why the only sentence in the entire movie was "I'm sorry, Maude." That's my take on it.
I love this take & also love the “alienated human befriends humane aliens” theory where she finally fits in in a society
Theyre both very interesting & like that its good endings for her
@@Tw0Dots That scene where she killed her friend was brutal. My friend I watched it with, said out loud, "oh hell no! No wonder they all hated her!". The more I think about this movie, the more I liked it.
She’s lucky the aliens don’t morn bc if they did they would of not let her go after she killed that alien
Aliens*
Well she didn’t? She killed the husks not the worm thing
@hollystop You just made me realize the slobber trail coming from the dead alien's mouth was actually the trail of the worm thing. I need to watch this again.
She's lucky she wasn't jn prison for murdering her friend with a rock
@easymoneysniper9013 I can't imagine any attorney would try a child as an adult for murder with that incident.
I love Kaitlyn Dever in Dopesick, Unbelievable and Booksmart. She was amazing too in this movie, I gotta say her movie/TV series choices are fascinating to prove more of her acting range. Really great stuff coming from her especially for that she's 26 year old and already brave enough to take risky roles
The aliens kinda did save her though 👽
Unbelievable is where I first saw her. She is awesome
I hope she keeps chosing good role in interesting movies
Dopesick was great
She has signed on to play Abby in The Last of Us part 2 so I can't wait to see that, she usually plays quite demure characters and Abby is a muscle-bound tomboy.
The scene where she first killed the aliens mimicked how she killed Maude.
The ending was kind of like Midsommar. a depressed wronged person by the human kind finding solace with strange bunch of people/ organisms
Only neither person were wronged at all.
@@coltonwilkie241 Florence Pugh was wronged by her boyfriend in Midsommar.
@@coltonwilkie241 Florence Pugh was wronged by her boyfriend in Midsommar.
Personally I think the meaning goes both ways while the aliens had a profound impact on Brim her emotions, trauma, memories, struggle, and sadness also had a profound impact on the aliens.
Even if she wasn't necessarily important in the grand scheme of things. I think the aliens learned alot from her just as much as they forced her to confront her demons and comes to terms/peace with them and move on.
I think it was her ability to deny the parasite that made her such an oddity to the hive mind. They were baffled because she couldn't be assimilated and that probably dosen't happen that often in sentient life.
I saw this the day it releases and feel I had good understanding of that last scene, but I just have to hear you breakdown and give any theories involving minute details.
This actually looks quite a dope movie! Pretty intense just by seeing how things go down in summary. I really thought this would be lame cause Alien and Home Invasion have been done so many times already but man the combo in this one actually makes it to be quite the intense movie! In fact, it being more Home Invasion-y makes it that much better!
Sooo... you spoiled yourself? 🤔
I was genuinely confused by this movie’s ending even with the director’s commentary and figured I’d just have to wait for the Ending Explained. As always, you made everything perfectly understandable. Thanks again!
An intruder in your home is already terrifying but the idea of that stranger being not of this earth is genuinely 100x more scary. And the fact that the movie made it obvious from the beginning that we were dealing with aliens made it pure nightmare fuel.
I think that the Aliens were learning from Brynn as well. They were dancing together at the end as if they wanted to become more human. Perhaps they desired the deep relationships humans can form with each other as a way to strengthen their own society, so they chose the most "human" example of our race to observe and learn from. Hence the waving and smiling.
Just because the people in the town at the end are acting that way doesn’t mean the aliens in other parts of the world are carrying on the same way. They maybe just doing that in that small town because the girl won’t stop fighting but they may also be carrying out what they really want to do towards the rest of the world.
I loved this, beginning to end, the silence made it so much better, the aliens were familiar yet different and the ending let's it self go full crazy sci-fi and I am here for it. First sci-fi I've seen that was good in a looooooong time.
you ain't ever lied,
Didn't understand the ending at first but now I get it. I originally thought it was weird af.
As such is life lol
This one was so damn good! The most realistic alien I have ever seen. And I think she only spoke 3 words, twice the whole time? I hardly even noticed. I was surprised this was a Hulu original.
The ending to me felt like she had gained the alien's respect. She fought so hard for her life they decided she was worthy of having the one she deserved
At the end if the day she's still being enslaved by the aliens. Even if she's not affected by the parasite she knows everyone else is and that they are not genuine humans. She can only fake that smile for so long. She's the equivalent of a person in prison who becomes a trustee. The trustee gets certain privileges and perks than the other inmates, but that trustee still has to return to their cell at the end of the day, just like everyone else.
@@pray4us955movies like this lets you know how lost in these times people are. You can tell most people really don’t understand this movie and there’s a very good reason why. And it’s sad.
I would say compassion, over respect.
@@pray4us955 She herself feels like an alien. the whole town treat her like an outsider. She was lonely and it seems everyone avoiding her. Means she is now happy since everyone is gone and the alien accepting her
I wish I could write a long, provoking analysis like everyone else but I can’t. It’s fabulous and is a film that does belong on the silver screen.
Glad this girl is finally getting some recognition lol watched her back on Last Man Standing and her character was great so happy to see her getting more big roles
Since you read a lot of these I just want to say thank you so much for these. Really appreciate you dude.
I miss the videos being longer this is the only series I actually don’t get bored of.
Just watched this a few hours ago and immediately checked to see if you had done a video on it! Perfect
Brynn goes through the ringer in this movie, and it's better than I expected.
Honestly super stoked for Kaitlyn Dever. I grew up with her and she was super excited when she got her first role. She's really starting to take off!
The Matrix -- Aliens invade -- Neo takes the red pill
No One Will Save You -- Aliens invade -- Brynn takes the blue pill
All in all, it was a fairly good movie. A refreshing change over the canned remakes we've had for the last decade.
I got The Matrix vibes from this as well xD
I loved this movie. I thought the whole Maude storyline was fantastic and glad we found out what happened. I was curious though how Brynn’s Mom passed? Thought maybe when Brynn woke up from the dream. We’d see Maude and her Mom in present day but loved what we saw instead. Not to mention the pods were Body Snatcher like when we got the 2nd Brynn. That was awesome. All around fantastic and loved the ending too! Kinda Tim Burton feel.
U should do recommendation vids too if possible, i always watch the first few sec of ur breakdowns and if u seem to like the movie, i stop there, watch the movie, then get the sweet closure through ur ending explained. I usually line up pretty much with ur opinions and taste in movies and we all know how hit or miss horror movies are so its hard to weed out the hidden gems often. Thanks for all the hard work regardless tho and keep em coming!
I do that as well for movies I don't plan on watching initially
I did the same thing with this movie & I was not disappointed. I really enjoyed this movie
A big point also is that she killed the alien in the exact same way she killed Maude, which is shown in her immediate reaction to having done it.
I like how the title implies it's a horror movie but in reality its half a motivational line, the other half being "you can only save yourself"
This was such a good movie! I love how the aliens were basically "Fine! You win". 😂
You imagine how bad things would've gone for the aliens if anyone in town had a gun.
I’m sure many did but they have that blue light that freezes humans, don’t you’re remember how she had a pot as a weapon and they froze it? Plus if they get killed their parasite thing just slithers out and gets put in another body.
Our bullets don't harm aliens.
I joked when watching this that I'd like to see them try this in a city like New York or something. Also, if the one deterrent for them is trauma, I'd like to see them come across a war vet.
But pots of boiling water, a mop, and a piece to a panorama seemed to. @@carolgraygauther8304
@@carolgraygauther8304But Brynn’s “weapons” killed them and subdued them easily?
My take on it is she suffers from guilt so much so she isolates herself. So all she really has is grief to accompany her. I feel as though the aliens symbolize the feeling that grief and guilt cause which is terrifying. I feel like the harder she fought and the more determined she became the less scary the aliens became. Symbolizing perseverance and the ability to overcome that fear of having faced that grief. Finally accepting that she made a mistake and when she saw her younger self writing that letter and touched her hand was her forgiving herself. The ending I feel is her having overcome her fears accepting her mistakes and moving on with her life.
Thank you for tackling this one. I was one of the people who requested it. Kind of makes sense now haha. Appreciated and love your channel!
Just watched this movie today. I would say it's up there with The Shinning, in regards to the story telling. Those first scenes where she went to town reminded me of how I feel with anxiety. That everyone is staring at you, judging you, and loathing your existence. I've often felt like this, like I am in exhile in society. This movie was just amazing and is worth rewatching.
Such a fun movie. Glad you covered it.
Have you covered Haunt yet?? I just found it the other day.
After signs …. This just keeps you glued on to the screen…..this movie got me to watch a cartoon just to cool down the tension
YES I AM SO HAPPY! I was hoping you would cover this one, best movie review channel on youtube
I thought it was pretty good for a sci-fi horror. The spider-like aliens are creepy.
I love how she is no worry to them taking over the planet. Even though she was killing them left and right like it was her job 😂 Even with telekinesis they could barely catch her. This girl should go to the top of the final girl list😂
wow , i asked about this movie the last time, and the dude didn't disappoint, great movie, the lack of dialogue made it shine even more.
I just watched this not too long ago, was waiting for your video.
This is definitely a very unique take on the home invasion and alien invasion tropes.
And its not just unique, its also quite good otherwise.
Realy love what they did here!
Really enjoyed how twisted that ending was with her getting a HEA and the rest of the humans...not so much. Don't think it's a dream. I think the aliens genuinely connected with her fight to survive in a way they hadn't with others and realized that she wasn't going to fight them if they just left her alone.
Hey Foundflix! Thanks for covering this one, I really enjoyed it :) Was wondering if you could cover The Hallow if you have the time. It's super creepy and has big Halloween vibes and the creatures are sick! Keep up the awesome content
Glad to see you back to your original Format💖
Title Screen, Handsome Mug and Greeting
I knew you'd make a video on this movie! Lol I had to reflect a little after finishing this. It was enjoyable, I appreciate the cinematography and story. The end did tweak me out. Nice to hear your interpretation
I thought it was cute. Much more wholesome than I expected and I’ll take that over yet another cynical forgettable mess
I have a theory, her mum took the blame for Maude's killing...but everyone knows she did it.
I like your page, it’s like my new thing when watching movies and still in that haze of wondering if I got all major themes and points lol 😅 Thanks!!
Thank you so much for covering this movie!! It was a good movie I was just confused at the end.
All subtext aside, this really played out like a twilight zone episode, especially the ending.
Which i really liked.
It was based upon an old Twilight Zone episode. I am surprised this reviewer did not give out a shout-out to the original episode.
I’ve watched every episode of the old Black and white Twilight Zones do you know which this is based on because I don’t see it?
This movie was surprisingly really good! Intense horror with a sad backstory all while having little to no dialogue. Hard to accomplish well but man i think it was amazing!
Love this movie! Thanks for the explanation! You gave an excellent explanation. Subscribed!
I was waiting for this one!!!!!! So glad you covered it 😄
I know the director said she wasn't zombied in the end, but I think it's weird that the zombied people aren't all cracky and weird. They clearly were before in the bus and every other time, and the aliens were cracky too. So just for clarity I wish there had been a little weridness there cause it really seems like she's living in the fake-zombie world.
It seems they were in attack-mode when they were trying to "invade" but the end is post-invasion. Most of civilization has been taken over so the aliens don't have to be "cracky/weird" anymore. Meanwhile, Brynn wasn't under the alien influence. She's accepted her new world and forgiven herself for her past actions, so she's relatively happy.
i thought it was more that her grief was so strong that their ability to create a fake world in their subjects head didn't work, it might have been for the first time ever that a being was implanted with alien and managed to break free of the happy life they normally generate for their host. I think once they found the alien she pulled out of mouth they were shocked that this one being in the entire planet stopped them from using her. i wonder if they let her go because the grief was so strong that any other alien they implant will fail. pretty good movie
She literally the only person yet to have killed 2 different life forms.
yay you brought back the intros with the title. such a little thing that gives me the big happy
One theory I saw that I assume a lot of people agree with is that the things in their throats are the real aliens and the Grays are just another conquered species.
I wonder if there were other people like this. Fighting so hard to live another more peaceful life.
I randomly came across this on Hulu a few weeks ago and watched it. I like this actress from Justified and Booksmart. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I liked the “no dialogue” aspect too. Great breakdown.
You should review When Evil Lurks, love the content man!
yesssss I’ve been waiting for this! Such a good movie.
This movie is 100% my worst fear come to life. A lot of hell nope moments. It is actually pretty thought provoking. This is probably my surprise movie of the year. Really good!
At 45:45 in the movie, when she goes downstairs, you can hear a sound used in War of the Worlds. I'm sure a quick easter egg..
How did he not comment on the sound design/efxs? There are sounds in this that I swear I have never heard before, incredible
By far the best explanation for the movie that I’ve seen, you made more sense of it now thank you keep up the good work!
I don’t think she free. The parasite alien lets her resolve her trauma and lets her live in a fantasy land she wants. Part of capturing her was to let her think she was able to pull the alien out, resist, face her issues and then Give her the community she can make sense of.
She's definitely not free. She's still a prisoner that is dead inside. She has no choice. She's living a fake life, with a fake smile. She's just as enslaved as the rest.
I always watch his reviews 1st on movies I don't know of or I'm on the fence about so I can get his take decide if it's something that I would rather watch or rather not watch!
Have you been working out? I haven’t seen your videos in a few years and you look great. Thanks for another ending explained.
This movie blew so hard. It was just another "A Quiet Place" with different aliens.
It seems they couldn't put Brynn in a hallucination so they created a false world for her where she is accepted. She therefore becomes compliant and has given up fighting. They then can implant her at any time with the new Happy memories. A kind of a morbid draw perhaps?
Another way is the entity is some kind of hive mind and has fallen in love with her. Just accepting her as part of its existence on earth.
The ending threw me off, went from a horror to a comedy smh
Good perspective. Liked the video.
I love the channel and how can single handily break down the end of movies I never really understood
For a person who is NOT into Alien movies I must admit I truly enjoyed this.
This was the wackiest alien movie. That's why. It shouldn't have been an alien movie
@@ashman9885 orange is the new 14 👍🏽
@@ashman9885fuckkk youuu
More goofy alien movies please, and more good truly scary ones! Why are we against all kinds of alien media?
@@Sm0k3turt bro you fine?
@@DippedInInk that's the age when i smacked yo mama and little you popped out
I find this strange because I would always be scared shitless when it came to aliens but somehow, these ones, despite looking so generic, feels a lot less scary to me. Even stranger still, I think these aliens' eyes look pretty cute. Have I been abducted...?
This was a very interesting and refreshing story. Its nice to see studios try something new.
I watched this the other day and I just HAD A FEELING you were working on this one lol
