[@ajhalloween5743]

I watched this movie last night and I left not knowing how to feel about it. The Cinematography was amazing and the silence in the movie definitely made me feel creeped out while watching it. I wasn't necessarily scared while watching, but felt eerie because of the vibes it gave off. One thing that did ruin my experience though was the couple sitting next to me, they wouldn't stop talking and kept laughing and shoving each other which made it hard to not look over at them during the movie. Some people just don't have movie theater etiquette anymore!

[@TheReelHeel]

Spoke my exact thoughts. Wasn't scared but defo creepy.

*spoiler* That’s interesting, I thought it was because she had a past connection with him that was the initial reason she was having those ‘whooshing feelings’. Because once they explained that she had a past connection with long legs, that’s when the whole ‘intuitive’ plot went out the window for me. She had these repressed memories that were coming back in waves at a time until it all flooded back in her mind in the end once that doll broke.

The movie also completely lost me when it became super unrealistic.

**SPOILERS** Remember the scene when Lee was at Agent Carters house and his daughter said her parents keep all her belongings?

[@Adam-ns4sc]

i agree 100% i definitely walked out underwhelmed but i do feel like they explained her “sixth sense” SPOILERS!!!!!! The silver ball inside the dolls was explained to be pieces of long legs, and though its a leap, it was said that it allowed him to tell her where to look for things, playing into that cat and mouse game trope. which is why when her doll was destroyed she lost her connection to her “abilities”. is it lazy and one hell of a stretch, yes, but its there atleast lol

[@oggPollo]

Nicholas Cage is in my top 5 favorite actors, and holy crap he is petrifying with that makeup, and I find the movie so clever using his messages, and emphasizing so many sounds.

[@ericdlt11]

You're incorrect about the pyschic ability, or seem to have misunderstood, cause it was used quite frequently. If you watch it again, there is periodically a whisper and wind sound that guides her to something important and this is that ability kicking it. It's also felt more directly anytime she is in close proximity to or in contact with the metallic balls or Longlegs himself where she gets those vivid visions in red. Its implied the psychic powers are a direct result of her doll still being intact.

[@eBrEEzY8]

I came here for this comment. You are spot on. While I liked the critique I was like wait a minute, the film DID address this lol. They showed her mother shooting the doll of her for this reason, and the doll's influence on people the entire movie. Also, that connection explained why she seemed to be in a trance all the time, and why she did not remember certain things, but was led to find other things.

[@kjgames888]

I have no idea how anyone can feel misled? It was marketed as a creepy, vague, FBI/serial killer movie, and that’s exactly what it was lol

People who saw the trailers and claim that they were misled are nuts. This movie was 100% going to be supernatural.

I think the “psychic” ability was in relation to long legs being connected to Lee. Each doll he made contained “his essence” …and during his encounter with little Lee and her mother, he mentions he’ll be able to “come and go whenever he wants, as often as he wants”. So, was she psychic…or was she just pulling from the connection with long legs which in turn gave her “psychic” abilities? I think that’s why it wasn’t really brought up again.

[@pillowsleeper4521]

When I first heard about the movie, I thought it was about spiders. Kinda like those movies about giant spiders that attack a town or mall, But recently I found out the true story, I might see this thanks for the review.

[@notbryce9411]

it’s not scary in the way i feel the marketing was trying to convey, it’s more unsettling then anything and that’s what made it WORK for me!! going into this movie with the thought of it being a thriller instead of a horror is what will give you the best outcome for anyone who is preparing to be utterly terrified.

[@Tiri.4Justice]

I pretty much agree with everything you said. I loved the atmosphere it created, and I was spooked out half the time without there being any obvious reason. I also love to watch a horror movie that has me trying to figure it out right away. I definitely enjoy being surprised by new plots that haven't been played out a million times before. There was some great cinematography. Right from the beginning. Unfortunately, it all just fell flat. Everyone at the theater sat there for a minute when the credits started, and then was like, wtf?? It had so much potential to really be amazing, and the storyline was really interesting , but too many things that weren't explained and rushed through. I also really didn't like the FBI agent. She was really weird acting and awkward, and it just made it unbelievable that she was actually a Fed. Nicholas Cage was amazing and truly frightening. He definitely has a knack for playing a scary, weird, psychopathic character. I wished there was more of him actually in the movie. I feel if they had left the far-out supernatural aspects out, it would've made a more horrifying conclusion that would've left the audience more satisfied. I rate it 1 star for the overall movie. 100 stars for the hype and secrecy of promoting the film. I wouldn't recommend going to the theater, and it's not something I'd watch again. I love Nick Cage, tho! ❤

[@nnnickkk]

[@Fordyshoor]

I've already seen a lot of reviews and this is the most cogent to me. Totally worth seeing, maybe even twice. But too many clichés thrown into a blender by the end. Perkins straight up needs a co-screenwriter because this has always been his sticking point.

[@nzoocage4084]

8:41 but it is tho, just came from watching the movie, it has a sound cue at a few times in the movie *SPOILERS* She senses something in her mother’s house behind the locked door, she senses Longlegs before he knocks on her door, she literally has a spider-sense and it has a sound cue and her mother gets rid of it by destroying her doll, you see her ability literally leaving out the back of her head. The visions of the red liquid and snakes are her psychic abilities at work

[@Annaisrllybananas]

And she spends a long time staring at Agent Carter’s daughter when they first meet. This could be seen as her social awkwardness, but I think it could also be her feeling something bad will happen to the little girl, but not knowing what

I agree with this! I liked it, and the cinematography and sound design was utilized perfectly, and the acting was top notch. But story wise, when it was all over, I was still hungry. Lol! I wish the film would have learned more into either realism or supernatural than it did, but I felt like the balance it struck wasn't very effective. The most terrifying part to me was something that the film just sort of glossed over, and I wish it would have been touched on just a little bit further, because it would have made for a great "omg, no way!" kind of reveal. That said, I enjoyed it and will probably watch it again several times, but there were portions of the narrative that needed a bit more work.

[@zylonwilliams]

Wasn't much a big reveal to be honest

[@nox5870]

It wasn't ''A Scariest film of the Decade'', But it was definitely an interesting watch, I would definitely recommend it to people who are more into crime/thriller genre, because this is definitely not a horror film. It has horror elements but it wasn't a full blown horror movie from start to finish. There was some unsettling and creepy parts but I never felt truly scared. Nic Cage and Maika Monroe were both great, the actress who plays Lee's mother in the film was fantastic, she was absolutely creepy. But it definitely a type of movie that you need to see twice, it demands that. So I am definitely going to be seeing again but this time alone at home. I just came out of the screening couple of minutes ago, so the movie is very fresh in my mind but I just... I don't know, I need to sit with this movie for a bit and think how I feel about it, because there were stuff I really, really liked and then there were some other stuff that I would put under a question mark. That's why I think it necessary to see it twice. I can say that I think this film should have been either longer or a mini-series, a 1 hour 40 minute runtime is not enough to tell such a story I feel like, there is quite a lot that is left to viewer's imagination, a very ambiguous ending. I don't hate the ending but I do wish we got a conclusion, it felt like we will be getting Longlegs 2 or something... but either way, I can't decide fully on how I feel about this film, I will say I did like it more than I did not like it, but I don't want to go in the details because I am not 100% sure if even the things I did not like I truly don't like you know? But it definitely was an experience that I overall enjoyed but at the same let down by few things, I did feel like it needed to be longer at the very least and the jumpscares were weak... absolutely weak to me. But I will still recommend for anybody to go check it out for yourself, especially like I said before if you are fan of these type of movies (Silence of the Lambs, Seven or Zodiac) then this could be a good time for you. I will say this, this film is definitely also not on par with Silence of the Lambs or Seven in terms of filmmaking, storytelling and etc etc... It definitely pays homage to those films but at the same brings an interesting unique twist to the movie which I did really like. So yeah, go check it out. I feel like this movie is going to be very divisive, some people will love it some people will like it and some will straight out hate it, it definitely a more of A24 type of horror/thriller flick. Also, Nic Cage's performance was definitely something... I did not know how to approach his character... but eventually he did get under my skin but I can see some people straight out laugh at this character because of how ridiculous he is in this. Even I smiled couple of times because Nic Cage was having a lot of fun in this one, oh my oh my... He was chewing every scene, the interrogation scene definitely is going to be a memorable scene from the movie. Gosh, I went on a huge rant.. I need to chill, but at the moment it very hard for me to rate this, I need to wait a bit until I can truly comprehend what I just saw.

[@BMS_Houston]

Im glad to see I wasn't alone in my thinking! I felt 100% the same way about this film as you did. Maybe my hopes were way too high. I still enjoyed it in the end, though. Btw I heard of it from a different reviewer that I respect as much as i respect you, who praised it. And only saw his review when I saw an article online where Maika was horrified the first time she saw Nicholas for the first time. Before that, I had never even heard of this movie.

Am I the only one that thought it was complete shit ? Watch horror a lot so maybe I'm desensitised.

Hiii. I was one of the lucky few that saw the test screenings and also saw the movie in theaters.

Third: Nic Cage plays a character that’s a mix of buffalo bill meets pennywise. Conclusion: yes I agree that we needed more nic cage however, less is more. Also- there are many MANY things not mentioned in the final draft of the movie. All in all this is easily an annual rewatch.

[@chucksmith9813]

I met someone who saw this last night and hated it. Was looking forward to your review as I tend to have similar tastes in movies.

So crazy seeing how far our boy Cris has come

[@marmarzzz]

already watched the video keep up the good stuff chris!!!!!

[@Terrencepng]

great vid as always... i see you have an editor now. Should let them know that the "swoosh" sound effects are too loud. They kinda get annoying/take me out of the video

[@xenoxorus]

I love your new studio, looks badass!

[@Itsamemal]

The new setup is absolutely phenomenal 🔥

[@moviereviews4747]

This movie being filled with dread eary atmosphere unsettling...man, you took the words out of my mouth

[@sharklee43]

I saw the movie last night, my screening was filled up. I will say I liked the movie, but felt disappointed with parts of the film. I was excited ever since the first teaser came out. I’d give it a 7.2/10.

[@JaydenFrench-ev9fi]

As much I loved this movie. I can understand all of your viewpoints and opinions. Great review!

[@H4LFD3MON]

As a longtime Horror fan, I loved Longlegs. I really appreciated the atmosphere, sound score, and acting. Maika, Nicolas, and Blair acted phenomenally well. For my wife and I who watched it in theaters- 10/10. Highly recommend

[@kidkaden5139]

Unpopular opinion but the worst thing you can do to a film is draw that shit out to pad the runtime. I thought the pacing was solid for the first 30 min then it just becomes so drawn out with its themes and religious tones to the point where it feels more like an indie art project trying to make u feel a sense of dread with pointless exposition then a cohesive story. By the half way point you know where its going and The characters gave me a migraine.... Malignant did it better with its twist

3:03 I haven’t seen it yet but I’m intrigued… if a horror/thriller movie sticks with you this well after it’s over and your back home, that’s usually what makes a good movie in my opinion. Even tho your review is different then what most people are saying, just having described how it stuck with you and came home with you really peaks my interest to see it more.

[@forbiddencroisant]

I really liked the acting, dialogue, and most of the story, but the last like quarter of the movie really sank it. And they left so much unanswered in an unsatisfying way.

[@maxgutfreund3650]

Not seeing Cage is the point! I didn’t need to see him more at all. The story isn’t about him, it’s about Lee. All the great thriller/horror/detective films don’t show their villain for the majority of the film. It makes them more terrifying!

[@3CFilms]

Yet they adandon the hiding the face thing and give him a long monologue runing that immersion that I agree can be affective. But as soon as that’s done he’s gone

[@maxgutfreund3650]

@@3CFilms sure, give him his moment. But I don’t want to see more for a longer period of time. I would’ve cut the scene in the market with him and the girl. Don’t have any character not take him as a threat. That’s my only complaint.

[@Screamfancast]

Lets all give a round of applause for this marketing team!! They got me for sure. This movie was awful.

[@KillteeLenny]

I'm subbing based off this review. Thanks for keeping it real

[@matthorsman2900]

I got to PA on this when they were filming in Vancouver, I'm stoked to finally check it out :)

[@laquitasmith6774]

Chris, I’ve never agreed with you sooo much on a movie!!!! Loved the atmosphere of Longlegs but everything else you said was very similar to my reaction leaving the theater!

[@robsnow2099]

Im completely in the dark about this movie, Im fast forwarding to the end just to see what you thought about the movie. The hype is crazy around this, and you aren’t compromised so I look forward to at least knowing what a like minded horror fan thinks. Either way I’m going, but it’s hard to decipher the general consensus.

[@TheMrSwampert]

I’m surprised by how much I loved this movie. I do think the marketing was a little too exaggerated, and I knew a lot of people were going to be left underwhelmed based on what the trailers and everything said, but I really did love it. I work at a theater as a manager, and I’m surprised by how many parents are bringing their kids in to watch this movie, it’s almost fitting

[@noahtrevino5908]

Yessss I agree 100% I was like oh okay that’s what we’re doing :\ and just not disturbing in anyway but the cast I love but this was just so not it the marketing was my fav part lol

I think your way to harsh with that f rating because I know lots of general audiences that loved this movie and if they didn’t they liked it enough to be more than a damn F💀

[@kermitsewrside410]

Similar experience. I’ve seen most horror movies this year later in the evening opening weekend and longlegs was by far the most packed crowd. The only other movie I’ve seen this year with as many people was Dune Part 2 which is extremely impressive to me that this many people are coming out to see the movie.

[@Pupeyes]

Yay! You’re coming in closer to the camera. That’s way better.
