Queen of Spades

Some really great jump scares in here. Obviously watch with the lights off and off your phone. Had me freaked out several times. Some dark stuff here.

I've seen both the Russian Queen of spades and queen of spades the dark rite. While those movies were...ok. The first being the better of the two in my opinion.

This version was simply not good. Bad acting, the protagonists' ill placed teen angst against her mother (for some reason) along with the anger of her friend against her mother. None of the actors seemed to know how to display any sort of emotion. Just dry, dull performances and direction. Terribly predictable, terribly acted. Just plain terrible.

This one is a hard pass, my friends.

How does this have such a low score? The movie is decent and the acting is god too. Sure this story has been done a million times but it's entertaining.

It deserves a 5.

I stuck with it as long as I could but ultimately couldn't finish the movie.

The entire cast acted like they all took some Benadryl before filming. No chemistry. Low key acting. Nothing particularly scary happens. Done up right it might have been a fun watch.

Just really didn't care for it. It didn't seem scary or spooky or have any plot that was original or in any way different from norm. The acting wasn't great. Just not much to it and definitely no UMPH.
