Halloween Ends

POSITIVES

  • The title of the movie implies that this is presumably the last Halloween installment with Michael Myers and Laurie Strode. Let’s consider it a positive then that this does live up to the title and indeed ends things. It’s about time. 

  • Jamie Lee Curtis will forever remain awesome as Laurie. Strong work by Rohan Campbell as well who turned out to be an interesting addition to this franchise. 

  • Death scenes. When they happen, they don’t hold back that much on how bloody gruesome they are. That’s what we want from a Halloween movie right? 

  • Some solid sequences in this movie. That intro scene. The house with a pool. The scrap yard. The final battle. 

  • There's a thematic lesson to the structure of this story that I appreciated it attempting to do. 

NEGATIVES

  • Gotta say, this is absolutely not the movie that people expected for the presumably last Halloween movie. I see a lot of disappointed fans. 

  • Why is this movie just wasting so much time with all these little derivative plot threads? Just get to the reason why we’re even watching this movie already! 

  • Stupid decisions and plot choices that I really did not care for. 

  • There are some stupid unnecessary jump scares in this. It's kinda embarrassing. 

  • That ending. Seriously? That’s how they are going to conclude this decades long story? I’m shaking my head right now while giving myself a facepalm.
