Horrendous twist
11 February 2021
Warning: Spoilers
There are just way too many issues and inconsistencies with this film for me to like it. And it's a huge shame because the first 45 minutes or so I was fully invested in what's going on. Now I normally don't like doing reviews with spoilers, but since the plot is such a joke I can't not talk about it. So I'll sum up now and below are the issues I had with the film.

So overall it's a poor watch, poor twist that feels like a slap in the face and just not a good watch. It spends 45 minutes of not a lot happening for it to derail and just start going all over the place. I don't recommend.

The plot issues.

One moment just completely derails the film and single handedly ruins the whole thing. The "twist". And here's why: So the first 45 mins you are following these 2 couples on vacation and there's a murderer loose and couple no1 frequently talk to themselves about who it could be? Could it be couple no2? Note, they talked about it amongst themselves. Nobody else can hear other than husband and wife. So obviously the big twist is that it is in fact couple no1 who's killing. And it's just such a giant slap in the face to the audience. Why would they talk to themselves about who is it, if it's them? It's honestly so stupid and poorly done.

From then on it's a bit of a battle as they attempt to kill couple no2. Even though they had thousands of times they could have quite easily have done it with a lot less hassle. It's all just so stupid.

A third couple is introduced for about 15 seconds and it sets out it could be these and they are hunting them down. No no. They just ignore that whole storyline for the entirety of the film.

I'm honestly angry at this film, it could have been done so much better than it was. I'm going for 3 as the cinematography was good as was the acting. But that's where it ends.
