Trinket Box

This movie's trailer made me want to watch this. Worst mistake. The movie has an interesting beginning. The rest of the movie is loud with unnecessary music and long drawn out scenes. If you were to watch the beginning and last ten minutes you could literally skip the rest. I'm just glad the theater had food which kept me entertained. I pray there's not a sequel. How this movie has great ratings is beyond me.

This is the review of my spouse: I can't believe my husband convinced me to watch this movie for date night. I typically love all horror movies, even the ones with like 13% rotten tomato scores but I couldn't wait for this movie to end. The script was bad, terrible lighting, and sound was overbearing. The plot had potential but this movie just drags. What a snoozer.

Overall, the movie was fair for a weekend in and watching on TV. I would have wanted a refund if I'd gone to the theater. My biggest criticism is the amount of time the scenes, which I'm sure were paramount to the plot and enjoyment, were extremely dark. I thought my TV turned off a few times it was that dark. Outside of the trinket box being passed around there wasn't a real connection made to the beginning. If the theme was nothing more than old racism still exists then they nailed it. Otherwise, this movie disappointingly left a lot on the table for me. I would not recommend it. Someone else said they were left on the edge of their seat. I was too but that was only because I was waiting for it to end so I could find something else to do with my time.

Starts out semi-decent, Candyman origin lite. Then quickly goes into STINKER territory. Cheesy scares, boring couple drama, dull "walking through the house" scenes that go nowhere and one of the "cleanest" sex scene for an R rated flick ever! This could've been edited down to a thirty minute short film and still accomplished...whatever it set out to do...which I assume is to bore the 💩 out of the audience. There's even an epilogue scene that seems to go on FOREVER. The filmmakers never heard of an editor apparently. My faith in "Tubi Original" films is equaling "The Asylum" and "Gravitas Ventures"...a guaranteed film TURD! Avoid if possible.

Horrible acting Lost, confused, nonsensical plot Horrible acting Boring movie for almost all of it.

It actually does start out to look interesting. But those 10 minutes disappear quickly.

Horrible acting.

I am a third of my way through this movie, Trinket Box; and I AM BORED OUT OF MY MIND. Half of this time I have been in almost total darkness not knowing who is on the screen or what he or she may be doing. When 'light' finally comes in, the 'action' and conversation are so slow I hang on every word and am happy to get even a whiff of what is happening. There's a 'connection' to the past, and perhaps the Trinket Box IS that connection. Now, to quote the Clash, should I stay or should I go?, and GO is winning. Think I'll give y it a rest for now. Quite forgettable. This trying to reach 500 characters, when I have said all I need to say is ridiculous. T H E. E N D.
