The Circus Games

When I saw the movie picture on Amazon Prime and the trailer, I was expecting another movie with a lot of kills and movie's cliches. And I got it, but in a negative way, because it has a lot of things that you know it's going to happen before it happens. The stetic of the characters are mid, if we compare to characters like Pennywise or Michael Myers, also the story is non-sense and the dialogues are very very poor. Don't recomend the movie if you are expecting something great, but it is watchable. My conclusion is: the movie is very weak, contains a lot of movie's cliches and have a bad plot and the script don't make sense and the characters stetic is very mid if we compare to another horror characters.

Terrible story, dreadful and pointless script, appaling cast, constant ramblings of a completely un-scary archvillain make this schlock painful to watch.

Don't waste an hour and a half of your life, go watch a Mexican or a Turkish telenovel instead.

Personal opinion: The settings are bad. The effects are bad. The acting sucks. The storyline doesn't create any tension, and the ending is such cliche and predictable. It's a Saw wannabe horror film but the horror part doesn't deliver. Plus I really can't stand the Robert Downey Jr wannabe guy, he tries too hard.

The character Kane tried to look and sound like Rob and his circus ring leader vibe. The story rips off the murder world vibe and last man standing plot of Zombies new movie "31" (which was his worst cinematic effort yet.) Even with this it could have at least been mildly entertaining but it flat out sucked. There was no attempt to thrill with cheap gore or jump scares. Nothing at all entertaining. Just a lot of standing around and listening to bad actors try and talk us to sleep. The dialogue sounded like it was from a third graders play. Whoever was responsible for the script certainly didn't do the non talented actors any favors. It was just a flop all around. Nothing positive to say about it at all. I give it three out of ten.

When I picked up "Circus Kane", I must admit that I didn't really have much of any expectations of being in for a massive treat in terms of an entertaining movie. Why? Well, this being a clown horror movie and all, as they have a tendency of being rather bad most of the time.

But still, I decided to give the movie a chance on the offbeat chance that it would actually turn out to be a hidden gem in the horror genre. Well, let's just state for the record that it wasn't a gem.

The storyline told in "Circus Kane" was actually fairly adequate, and I must admit that I hadn't figured out the twist to the plot, so when that was revealed it was a genuine surprise to me. I liked that part of the movie.

It was the execution of the storyline and the whole bringing it to life on the screen that seemed to stagger and not really work well in favor of the movie. I must admit that throughout the entire course of the movie, I sat with a feeling of 'is this really it?' And the movie sort of felt flaccid, because while it attempted to achieve a lot, everything in the movie just seemed pointless and random. It was as if they made everything up as they went along, driving without an aim.

The characters in the movie were fair, some of them more detailed than others. But in overall it wasn't a grand character gallery, especially because most of them didn't feel like they were properly fleshed out - pardon the pun. I must admit that some of the behavior from some of the characters was just ludicrous and it really dumbed down the entire feel of the movie.

The entire haunted house, circus act, whatever you wish to call it had some interesting enough aspects to it. But again it just felt random and as if the director went without a plot and planned script.

I endured the movie to the end, though it wasn't a particularly thrilling or overly entertaining experience. And I can honestly say that I am not returning to watch "Circus Kane" a second time.
