TRAP Movie Review **SPOILER ALERT**

[@tamika2019]

This was the longest day ever! Most concerts take place at night. Somehow they attended a full concert, had mom prepare dinner, ate pie, and got arrested all in one day.

[@uscitizen3252]

I said the same thing! Like, they left the concert and it was still early enough for them to eat dinner and for him to escape arrest a dozen times? lol

This movie has some funny moments that aren't supposed to be. My favorite was the video of Spencer getting abducted by the butcher in the van. He convinces him to walk closer to the van with his arm waving in the air like he is trying to give a kid candy. Then he snatches him by the shirt and closes the door so fast it is like 1 frame. Everyone in our theater burst out laughing.

[@AriannaGi]

I thought they were going to reveal the wife was involved at that moment because he drove away so fast after the door closed 😅

[@iamjaiwilson4964]

[@conjohnson86]

This movie made me feel like I was taking crazy pills. 1. For her to be this huge star why were there so many people in the foyer and at concession stands all throughout her concert? 2. She’s a huge star and doesn’t leave her concert with top tier security, assistant, manager, etc.!?! It was all so nonsensical to me. I get suspending disbelief but dang

[@uscitizen3252]

I thought the same thing. She left the venue without her team? Especially security knowing there's a serial killer on the loose?

[@tigerlilly9038]

Riiiiiiight Beyonce's Julius *WOULD NEVER!!!!* 😂😂😂😂.

[@rationalraven8956]

I was distracted by one question the entire time: where the hell do these cops get probable cause to detain and question every single male at a concert, based on some vague notion that the killer *might* be there. Also, even if they interviewed Cooper, how would they possibly realize he was the right guy? We are repeatedly told that he's a master manipulator and liar, he could have super easily just walked out of there with the crowd, acted totally innocent when question, and went home to his family. While I enjoyed many aspects of this film, I just found the premise so outlandishly unbelievable that it kind of ruined the whole thing for me.

[@jaredbond7908]

I haven't seen the movie, but could it be that the plan WAS to make him panic and reveal himself? Because that's exactly what happened.

[@jaredbond7908]

Oh, and also: Why in the world did Lady Raven, and not to mention, every single EMPLOYEE, have to know about this plan? Wouldn't it seem like the less people who know about it, the better? Why explain anything to anyone? The government wants to catch this guy, so just pull up with your guys there under the guise of "extra security". Nobody has to be "in" on anything....

This is wildly accurate and fair. Sums up why I like Shyamalan movies.

[@StefHefner86]

24:53 Lady Raven’s asthma is what made Cooper stop seeing her and “perfect” and realize she was “broken” too. He tells her when he pretends to the be the limo driver that he thought she was perfect at first but then saw her “pieces” (or something to that nature). Writers frequently use asthma as a “weakness” or vulnerability.

Or as a way to create drama over an accidentally lost inhaler

Why would the wife tip off the police when he has their daughter with him and they're at a concert filled with families and teens? So, she didn't care to put innocent people and her daughter in harm's way? That made no sense.

Ya’ll are the MOST entertaining reviewers EVER….I love watching & listening to your breakdowns & “notes”!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!🙏🏼♥️

[@Blaze-ee8pi]

Joseph👍🏼You are so correct, there are uncountable number of ridiculous moments/scenes in this movie. Josh did a really great job playing this character. I was really expecting a huge 360 twist but there wasn't one. The only twist was Josh's wife suspecting him and throwing him under the bus. It seemed to me that Shyamalan kinda wrote this movie to highlight and feature his daughter and the movie isn't even about Lady Raven, but it is unbelievable how much screen time Lady Raven has with all of the concert scenes and after she left the venue. She has more screen time than any other actor in the movie with the exception of Josh. What also doesn't make any sense is that Cooper has been a killer for years and has gotten away with it, yet Lady Raven keeps outsmarting Cooper uncountable number of times and does the complete opposite of what Cooper tells her to do, ridiculous😂

[@TheRichyrich818]

Fun fact. The FBI profiler was Hailey Mills…from The Parent Trap…in a movie about trapping a parent. That’s why she was cast lol. I love it idk 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@emmaribena5529]

would have prefered the twist that the mother was his murder partner

[@RobertFithen]

This has become one of my favorite channels, but now you're actually saving me money. I was all set to go to the theater to discover what the twist was, only to now know that there really isn't one. Ultimately, I will just wait for streaming to see this. I think M. Night has really painted himself into a corner with all of these twist movies. A stellar promotion, though, with the trailer giving just enough away.

[@niktour352]

I generally liked the movie, but I did feel the movie jumped the shark when Josh Hartnett is threatening Lady Raven and gets her to get him and his daughter out of the concert building. Then the movie goes on too long beyond the concert location and has two too many endings! When the movie finally did end, I found myself wanting it to go a little further!

[@Comegetyomansis4840]

The part with the merch guy was ridiculous! It would have made more sense if it was a guy Cooper had gone to high school with or a former coworker or something. It would make more sense for the info dump he does because he would already know Cooper and wouldn’t think he was a threat. It also justifies him bringing Cooper back stage and stuff. Truly a missed opportunity here

I thought Josh Hartnett did a great job playing a serial killer and it was great to see Hayley Mill's I thought she retired so it was good to see her in this movie!

[@LoisZozobrado]

As someone who has been on tour, most likely in this situation the tour manager booked her a limo for party plans or perhaps a car ride to fly home. Even though she arrived at the venue on a tour bus that doesnt always mean the artist will leave via tour bus. So excited to see this movie now! Def was hesistant about payin money to see it.

[@uscitizen3252]

I thought it was strange that she was leaving without anyone on her team. Manager, assistant, security, make up artist, etc. It was way too convenient and unrealistic that she left the venue with just the family.

[@zethraelofteldrassil3149]

I will say it once again (I say it to anyone who will listen), Shyamalan's best work is "Devil", and he didn't even direct it. He wrote it. Ask yourself, how much tension can there possibly be in a stuck elevator with five people? Tension through the roof! One of most overlooked movies.

[@politefan8141]

I can't recall a single song on the soundtrack but I did think it sounded practically identical to anything we'd hear on the radio in 2024.

How was he able to get her alone in her dressing room and alone walking to the limo and alone in the house? But I digress it was fun 😅 And i'm loving the whole album/soundtrack.

I couldn’t help but think about Halloween 4/5 with the insertion of the doctor trying to catch the psycho k*ller. And to think Josh Harnett went from running from Michael Myers to now playing a character with similar background himself.
