Funhouse

I personally enjoyed it. Decent concept with really twisted scenes and gore. Not half bad.

Good for one watch if you cant pick anything, its a fun ish movie if you like gore and breast. A couple scenes are predictable with the exception of a plot twist ending thats not predictable. Like i said its a good watch for a having trouble picking a movie kind of night, you will be entertained. I gave it 4 stars cause obviously its not the best movie in the world, not the worst. But for what it is its decent and has been done before.

This movie tried to convey something. However, the stories used are meaningless and the characters in this movie are not representative enough. The director is ambitious but apparently he needs to dig more in humanity before he could tell an eloquent story. He wants to say that morden people are becoming coarse but this movie itself is coarse enough. Yes, the director succeeded but that success resulted in a rubbish movie. The only things I can remember are an uglified panda and so many children watching a bloody live stream.

This movie handles the idea of vapid celebrity culture and the TMZ style media coverage that follows, while playing out on the backdrop of a Saw style torture tournament. The outstanding issue is that the themes the film tries to comment on we have seen covered a hundred times in better, more subtle projects.

The damnation of meaningless celeb status is constantly waved in the audiences face which doesn't help the characters feel relatable, but perhaps thats the point? Non of these feelings are aided by the tepid script and questionable acting either, which led me into a sort of numb coma halfway through the film as I watched fictional instagram people being killed one by one and feeling nothing.

I recognise and respect that the film had a smaller budget and lesser known cast than most mainstream releases and aesthetically it was fairly pleasing and some scenes hit the mark and just about kept my interest afloat despite my often deflating attention. However I still ended the film feeling beaten down by the film's lacking apsects and especially the ending monologue delivered by the villain (AKA poundland moriarty) was so on the nose even Christopher 'headstone'Gerard would have been K.O'ed by it.

We get it, Instagram is bad, you didn't need to make a movie to tell us.

So it's definitely not a good movie but I will say I was entertained. You kind of know what you're getting yourself into so you can accept the lower quality of production and acting. Still enjoyable considering.
