Black Friday

Not once I've raised the corners of my mouth for a slight hint of a smile. The (first time movie) writer totally missed the humor in his writing. Writing comedy is an art and this could have been much better (maybe hire a comedian?) On the characters and story, the writing was bad also because the situation is handled as if the events happen every week which made it surreal & detached (in a bad way)... Also the music score gets annoying (its like a Home Alone score).. Now all this would not bothered me when the writing was good! The writer should've watched 1992 "Braindead" (my fav horror-comedy!) which has the absurdism, sarcasm and over the top gore this movie needed badly! Watch Braindead instead, avoid this!

This movie has absolutely no comedy n it tried very hard to fall in the horror/comedy genre but failed miserably.

What was the point of taking Michael J White n not show his character kicking zombies.

The whole 'Blob' style scene towards the end is a big meh.

It's crazy how movies are getting done with such lousy scripts, seriously.

There's a lot of work here in terms of production, they even got a good bunch of actors, none of them was half as bad as the script!

Cinematography was good and the practical effects were decent for the genre.

But the script is mediocre from the beginning to the end, the story is nothing original, true, but it's just an excuse to see how the characters survive the situation, it's been done before, simple stories, clever script. This isn't clever at all. Dialogs, action, pace, characters... everything fails here in that department.

Totally wasted potential. Again, I can't imagine how this script got greenlighted, somebody of all the people reading it must have noticed how bad was the writing.

It's ok if you want a dumb watch, but I'm sure you can find easily something better.

If you're after a fun little holiday thrill with some laughs thrown in, Black Friday might be the movie for you.

Sure there's no character development, and the plot gets a little ridiculous at times but you aren't watching a B movie for character development of academy award level writing.

Black Friday doesn't take itself too seriously, and neither should you. For a small budget movie the skin work is great.

It was great to see Devon Sawas (Final Destination) all grown up and Bruce Campbell is funny as ever.

When trying to imagine Black, Friday, think Netflix comedy Superstore, if the store was attacked by aliens.

This is a Christmas, horror comedy in typical B-movie style a la Bruce Campbell. I've read some of the reviews here and I think people mistakenly thought they were going to watch The Godfather or Alien. The criticisms sound like they were expecting a Spielberg or Scorsese cinematic masterpiece and they were shocked when ....it wasn't. It's a fun Christmas horror comedy driven by characters that are all flawed, parodies of those we all know in real life. It is fun to watch and fans of Bruce Campbell should give it a try. Will it win an Oscar? Not a chance! Is it going to revolutionize the film industry? Nope! Is it driven by an award winning, spell binding script? Heck no!

But will my husband and I watch many more times over the holidays to come? Yes! We! Will!
