Yeah, I finally saw this movie thanks to Netflix. And not to go all Spoony but.........
BETRAYAL! BETRAYAL! BETRAYAL! BETRAYAL!....this movie SUCKS!
I've been a big fan of the series since the first one, and I honestly think they need to kill the franchise. Kill it off before it hits self parody mode that this movie was almost close to doing. This movie wasn't even laughable, it was just boring.
And I'm not the kind of guy who ask why are they filming this. To me asking that in a found footage movie is about as cliché as wondering why Bond villains just don't shoot Bond in the head in stead of putting him in a slow device after telling him their plans.
But this seemed forced. Why were they filming this? At least in the beginning? Just because the main character is a teen and they all use computers or Ipads is the only reason their filming this?
And the main character in this movie isn't the teen blond girl but Face Time and a Sony Kinect.
I knew this was going to happen to the franchise eventually. I thought it was going to be the third movie that I would call betrayal on. But I liked that one. In fact I thought it was the second best one of the series.
If they do make another one I doubt I'll see it in the theaters. I wont buy it. Just rent. Even if I do rent it will because I'm plot driven. Much like I was from Saw 5 though 7.
