O Desejo Final

There were two reasons for why I decided to sit down and watch "The Final Wish". The first reason being solely that it is a horror movie, as I am a huge fan of the horror genre. And the second was that it had Lin Shaye on the cast list.

I had no expectations to the movie, so director Timothy Woodward Jr. had a clean slate to use for impressing me. However, it turned out that the storyline and plot for "The Final Wish" was subpar and less than mediocre, actually. The movie just seemed to run on autopilot and offered nothing new to the horror genre. Plus, the storyline was so predictable that you knew what happened well before it would transpire on the screen.

It should be said that the acting in the movie was adequate, despite the fact that the performers had very little to work with in terms of script, plot and characters.

I terms of it being a horror movie, then "The Final Wish" was frightfully devoid of anything even remotely scary or spooky. And when the big reveal was unveiled, it was just a shrug on the shoulder, because I had smelled it coming a mile away.

Did the movie had potential that wasn't utilized or exploited? No. Everything was put to use in the movie, just a shame that it was a bland experience and final product.

If you enjoy horror movies, then you should probably invest your time, money and effort in something else, because "The Final Wish" is a less than mediocre foray into the genre, offering nothing new or innovative.

I love movies in horror/mystery category. And i am actually not very harsh critique when it comes to mysteries. But this one is not good. Was too slow, boring, and wasn't even sure in the end what is the twist. Just no, you can skip it unless you really have nothing else to do.

I love horror movies of all kinds, even cheesy low end ones. My son found this in a $3 bin at Walmart and noticed Tony Todd, I'm a huge Tony Todd fan, plus Lin Shaye, I was sold! It's very made for TV feeling, yes. The actress that plays Lisa is terrible, yes. It could've been better... Tony Todd and Lin Shaye could've had bigger parts too but it wasn't awful. I now own it, I might watch it one more time but that might be it lol. You only live once right lol.

5/10 🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠 Well this isn't an actual lifetime movie but that's the total vibe this movie has from start to finish. Cheesy jump scares of things that aren't there but as soon as the camera angles change they pop up out of nowhere. The actors are formidable a few you've seen before but have no idea what there names are. Categorized as a horror but a 10yo. could sit thru the film and never have to cover their eyes filled with fear. The plot of the movie is kinda reminiscent of other films like "The Brass Teapot" but not hardly as good. It follows a lawyer who's struggling to get a job, When his father dies he returns home and uncovers an old urn with mysterious powers. The pace of the movie is kinda slow but not that bad most made for TV movies are predictable as this one definitely is. All in all the movie kept my attention for the most part and if your looking for family friendly horror this one will be right up your alley.

As a hardcore horror fan and not young I've seen alot of movies and while this may not be a scary jump scream movie it was very entertaining to watch ! Tony todd playing a more serious short role to waiting to hear the word wish in a statement to see outcome ! While movie was not scary it made you think on life if you wished for something so bad . Didnt expect the ending ! And as with everything there is a butterfly effect with your decisions you make in life !! Most people who make comments sees one scary movie that looks like this movie and then calls this junk ! Not a wishmaster movie but i did enjoy this and would say more suspenseful then horror film and every new movie i dont compair to others !!!
