To start, I LOVE FNAF and I grew up with it so I will try to review it as a super fan. This movie's Easter eggs range from obscure to pretty common knowledge with the series and I'm pretty sure I didn't miss one and it was super fun! The fan service was almost exactly what I had dreamt it would be with the absence of a thing or two that I won't disclose. Watching it with friends who also love the series was a blast as we gawked at the fan service and found it funny and at times interesting. HOWEVER, fan service isn't a reasonable substitute for aspects of a good film. I had doubts because of the directors track record but this film really has issues that even I can see, and trust me I really wanted this one to be good. Starting with positives the movie at least kept me interested and I think it was shot decently well. The pacing was also mostly fine until the third act where it got a little shaky and most of the sets and the animatronics looked great but that's about all I can think of. The plot is okay but side plots that set up motives are short and a little strange. Speaking of motives, characters in games vs the movie seem different in weird ways, especially mike. I won't spoil it but if you know the lore the differences are strange and left me conflicted, especially at the end but more in that later. Even if you don't know lore the movie is predictable besides some aspects of the end. The ending feels really fast and is resolved strangely in my opinion and I don't know how cannon this thing is but some decisions made me as a lore loving fan confused a little angry. A few decisions made me as a fan mad as things they added that I think they should've avoided or things that are absent but this will vary with everyone. One thing I wished happened tho is that we got more time with the characters. I wish we got to see our heroes go through it a little more or something so that we really did root for them and care for them but they only sort of do it with mike and even then we could've fleshed it out more. The villain, though predictable, was barely in the movie and if felt like it relied on prior knowledge to make him feel threatening. Overall I had a blast but I really can't see a lot of people who didn't grow up with the series enjoying it because the for the fans spirt of the movie will just fly over there heads. I don't think this movie was completely trash and it did have a soul that was felt and conveyed by the director and the producer Scott but it definitely didn't feel like a good movie either. And maybe I'm saying it wasn't complete garbage because I am a fan but I do feel that there are a lot of movies out there that are definitely way more soulless, not fun, badly shot, (like the slender man movie) and more that this movie doesn't really compare to even if it's not a great film. Even though I'm slightly disappointed the time I had at this movie was unforgettable to me and the fact that this movie has finally made it after 9 years brings a smile to my face and should be celebrated, but I don't think that many will have the same experiences. I really wanted to like this and even though I didn't it was still fun especially as a fan even though things did rub me the wrong way now and then. If you like the series don't avoid this just go and have a good time and expect a great film. I will always love this franchise and I want people to see this movie and have fun despite the flaws but it's not for everyone sadly, but I hope it's one of those bad movies that gets a sequel because I'll be there no matter what.

What an ending. This is probably my personal favorite thing to ever come from this IP and yes I'm including the original trilogy. I know that might be insane for some but I have trouble thinking of anything I would change or rly any flaws to this final arch in general. Everything hits hard from the story all the way up to the score. Even if you'd never seen anything Star Wars before in your life I still think this episode can stand on its own, but you won't really have the same attachments and it might not be that impactful for a person like that although I still think itd be good at that point. In conclusion, to me, this is the best thing to ever come from Star Wars and you need to watch it.

Yeah I saw this and I saw the reviews and thought it would be a so bad it's good type of deal. It mostly wasn't worth it. I watched this with some friends in hopes of a good laugh but we didn't get as much as we wanted. Besides the very beginning and the ending where things start to pick up this movie is just plain awkward, embarrassing, unfunny, and very boring. The poor quality of just about every aspect of the film is a little funny at first but that where's off quickly. In conclusion not the best way to spend your hour even if you have some buddy's with you. Go watch a Neil Breen movie instead.
