Turned the movie on an immediately was annoyed, she put the needle on the edge of the record and starts spinning it backwards by hand. Anyone would know the needle would immediately fall off the record. You have to put it on the middle edge. Duh!! The whole fight scene within the apartment is ridiculously laughable. Two of the they/thems seemed to have no idea how to fight back or help one another. Makes you want to throw ur TV out the window. Poor Sam Raimi having to watch his brilliant creation get pumbled by garbled messes of hack like this. The one positive is the cinematography is fantastic!

I really tried to like this movie. I did. But it was a long hard struggle. It's actors do a pretty good job up to the midway point, but the believability and storyline and script is just so atrocious they have no chance. Not one "escape" attempt in the first hour. Yawn. Seriously? Oh and the sprinkled in wokeness is apparent too. An asian man dating a black woman? I just googled it and there's literally people who wrote their thesis' about how it's almost never happened. 5 cited examples in 26 years of studies. I can't write much more as to give spoilers but i suggest you watch another desolate beach movie instead. Don't grow old watching this one fall apart.

About 90minutes in when she rides the bike home, background song sounds like a direct ripoff from the film Glory (composer James Horner). Someone should let him know. It's one of my favorite soundtracks so i recognized it right away.
