Valutazione di brandythefox
Excellent addition to the franchise, finally.
After the first 3 Omen films (and, admittedly, the Final Conflict was already grating on cheese), the attempts to build a sequel or reboot the franchise were duds. But this gem then arrives.
It felt like the filmmakers really made an effort to set each scene apart, and give it extra relish. There wasn't a moment in the film where I thought they were going through the paces, rather, each scene seemed quite well thought out.
It's sad that the box office receipts don't look stellar, but Arkasha Stevenson definitely deserves another Omen film, or, heck any other horror film. She is quite a talent. Nell Tiger Free and Ishtar Currie-Wilson shine here. Tiger Free pulls the role off, and Currie-Wilson is genuinely spooky and unnerving.
Maybe they could try their hand at a true sequel?

Why do this at all if you're not focus on the gags? Bill Murray, Dank Ackroyd, Jeanie Potts - all comic legends from the original - end up as on-screen memorabilia. I've never seen a director and scriptwriter so blatantly waste Bill Murray like this. Even Paul Rudd, whose got a decent comic career, feels like the furniture.
It's got production value, and good special effects, but without the SNL type of one-liners or zingers, this ends up a dry corporate recycling of IP.
And what is with the directing? Gil Kenan messed this up. It feels like a lifeless powerpoint.
Afterlife was mildly funny. This barely evokes a chuckle. Did everybody on this film forget that the franchise is a comedy franchise? What a wasted opportunity.

Stick a bunch of actors known to have done comedy. Have them play characters that are unbelievably dense. Make meta comments at the movie industry ad nauseam. And write jokes that are simply unfunny.
This one felt like an algorithm put the storyline together. The lifeless script felt like an endless catalogue of cliches and stereotypes of celebrity culture and it never improves or rises above it. This is hollywood / mass media navel gazing that continues forever. How many times can the average viewer laugh at, what is essentially, 1 joke done over and over again?
Apatow delivers one way, way below his usual standard. Avoid.
