Pecadores

I honestly don't get the hype around Sinners (2025)-it feels like an overrated film. The visuals are stunning from start to finish, and the soundtrack is well done, even if not every song appealed to me personally. Jack O'Connell delivers a solid performance and is definitely the highlight of the movie.

That said, the pacing is a major issue. The film starts strong, but halfway through, it loses direction-I often found myself questioning the relevance of certain scenes. The twists aren't impressive either; most of the plot is predictable, and you can pretty much figure out what's going to happen just by watching the trailer.

Overall, Sinners isn't a bad movie, but it's definitely overhyped. It has its moments, but it doesn't deserve the praise it's getting.

I really thought I was going to love Sinners even before I saw the glowing reviews, but after seeing so much hype I was really excited. Unfortunately my expectations weren't even close to being met.

Not a whole lot happens in this movie, to describe the plot would only take one sentence. The filming was done well and the music elevated the overall film but it just falls flat and it left me feeling unsatisfied. I expected more from this and wish it had been as entertaining as I was promised.

The plot for this movie is pretty much lifted from Dusk to Dawn. You introduce a handful of characters and get them all to a single location where they are then attacked by vampires. Sinners is much slower, more of a William Faulkner version of a vampire movie. The production design and cinematography are excellent. The cast is very good. The music is good. Everything about this production top notch.

However, I struggled to get through this. There were many long scenes where the dialogue became cumbersome. It felt like the whole movie was a slow burn moving toward a rousing climax of horror, but when they got there it was underwhelming. It never delivered the scares or the sense of danger.

I saw the ratings for this film and I watched really looking forward to watching it. Even the people who work the counters in the cinema assured us of how good it was.

The first half of the film have the makings of an 8/10 film, and it seems like it's going to go that way, especially with such a good cast. But as with most films these days, it takes a turn and gets quite daft in the second half. Somewhat like Dusk til Dawn, but not half as good...But that's just my opinion.

Go watch it, but at least give it an honest review. It's not an 8/10 movie as iMDB has it scored. I scored it a 6, which I think is fair.

I'm not saying the movie is bad, it starts great, gets a little slow and the ending was okayish. But it's getting more hype that it deserves. It seems more like a one time watch rather than a timeless piece.

The cinematography is brilliant, soundtrack is great but the script is just mediocre. The plot just drops after 30 minutes or so. The ending feels somewhat lazy.
