Hey @think story do Invincible review
Catherine deserved better. 😔I kept waiting for the ghosts to do something and finish off George and they never did. Useless.
Both of them suck and are terrible humans
I know I thought the woman ghost would help her...classic Netflix movie great story and actors and actresses amazing shots but the storyline never executes well😒
A lot of build up and waiting for something to happen and then......a rushed ending.
No. She got what the plot demanded.
Besides, if George cheating, made him "evil", then so did her cheating, too (ironically, also not far off rom her death).
@@Xathos cheating only makes you a cheater. But murder and trying to kill that lady make him a true evil. I felt really bad when he killed that old man.
Did no one else think George killed his cousin? That would put more meaning behind him taking his cousins identity and killing Floyed the same way he killed his cousin.
I picked up on that
Oh, I definitely think he did, for the exact reasons you stated. He stole the credit for the watercolors and [I think] he reread the diary so much because he wanted to feel how his cousin felt in order to explain the paintings.
Yes he obviously killed his cousin
100%
i thought f murray abraham's character suspected it too, but his nature forbade him from judging at the time.
I just think that 2 hours is not enough for that film. They left out some important scenes that could’ve atleast enlighten us with what’s going on there and how did he do this and that.
They wasted the whole first hour of the film and tried to cram all the plot into the second hour. If they just would have had good time management/story explanation two would have been plenty.
@@akatheflailingchicken7807 exactly that!! im glad im not the only one who thinks this
Feels like the third act was skipped completely.
I kind of like it how it is- leaves the viewer with questions and is a little open to interpretation
Not related to the ending itself, but I just thought of something about the movie. One of the first times the ghost manifests itself is when Catherine is obsessing over her weight. The electric toothbrush starts by itself and breaks the scale's glass. That's the ghost's way of telling Catherine to stop obsessing over it, I think.
Ohhhh that actually makes sense!
Ofc it is
No, it was just the ghost telling her it is a female ghost and that even in the afterlife she was traumatized by overweight. But here you can see that the movie is fictional, as both, the lead females and the ghost are supposed to living in the US, but none were overweight. High Fantasy at its best.
Dumb
I think thats right but 2 wrongs dont make it tight... still she cheated on him anyways
Personally, the storytelling could've been done better if this was a miniseries with multiple episodes like the Haunting of Hill House series. The first hour was a great scene-setter but as mentioned by others, they tried to cram everything in the second hour.
I thought it was a streaming series. I told my mom that it felt like filler episodes.
i think this was a book like a series
Agreed that this should have been a miniseries
i kinda thought it was insinuating that George also killed his "gay" cousin and made the whole diary thing up afterwards to ruin his reputation, because he tells the other professor guy that he stole the diary and read it over and over for weeks. Then later at the dinner party his dad brings up the diary and starts behaving very shittily about the revelations with the cousins personal life and saying it took the family by surprise. I kinda thought that was another lie of his being insinuated but im not sure since they dont really dive any deeper than that(im sure the point of that scene with the dad was to show where george gets it from/be the last straw for Cath)
No I don't think so, he stole the diary and the paintings to create a persona
@@musama8771 he also killed him so that he could manipulate things thats why I think so.
giving how evil he is, i think he just envy at his cousin and killed him and make it like accident. Because he is the kind of guy who cannot see others bested him. Giving how well his cousin painting i probably think that his family is actually proud of him. You know like in every family there always some cousin who shine more and others parents always comparing their child with those cousin. George is just straight envy him, killed him. Steal his painting and forge the diary to make his cousin bad image. This can related in latter movie where he forced the recommended letter, and how he get the idea to kill the professor when he saw the professor going for sailing. It is because he already experienced it so if the conversation goes bad he kill the processor.
This George is just pure evil and physcopath with pretty face, there is a line where catherine said george always have what he want. Its mean that he will have hard time to accept no as answer. Just like when he trying to flirt and fuck Justine. He wouldnt let go justine hand, this is because he always success in trying to charm his prey with look and character. remember how he charm his student. This type of person is really dangerous because most of physopath and serial killer always has this kind of behaviour and dedication. They always hide behind their good character but behind that is full of lies. They willing to do everything to secure their good character.
Personally i just hate this ending, and the movie is not totally good. The bad guy is just not serve to much justice. We know how evil george is. But he only die by drowing and go to hell. Yeah that it. They should at least show his true downhill where all his lies is shown, where everybody damned him and he kill himself and then go to hell. Instead they just show he go to sea to died...Why i said he go to sea to die? simple its because he know the weather, and the guy at the jetty told him he cant go. That guy know if you go its like you wanted to kill yourself. He refuse to let george go but in the end he just let him go because he think george just want to sail for 10m. George know full well how the weather is, and when justine is always he know his lies will get blown. He just choose to die in the sea because he to coward to take his own like.
Yeah, George freed his anxious cousin from his desperate existance and guided him to the afterlife.
@@slyztercoreveanged3175 See you get it
I just don't understand how Ella was being a guardian angel. She didn't really help Catherine much. In that last scene where Cath was getting groggy, I thought she would just take over her body or at least do a bit of miracle to save her. But nah. The ending was quite a cliffhanger too. Netflix seems to be so keen on this sort of frustrating endings lately: What/If, Behind Her Eyes, The Call
You took the words right out of my mouth!
Yup, if she really was a guardian angel why did she not save Cath. Instead she is dead now too and they can ‘protect’ the next family that is going to move into this house
And she clearly could do things like close the doors and interact with the furniture (she did so before in the movie).
Why not there? Probably because of plot, but anyway.
She said something about not being able to alter someone's fate or free will. A guardian angel's job (in the movie) was just to guide a person to their next level.
Ella's purpose was to guide her to afterlife. I don't think she could do much in the physical world (plus the evil spirit was getting in her way), so her way of helping was to wake up Justine, which she could do since Justine's soul was in between worlds when she was in coma.
The ending: the best women who are killed by their husbands can hope for is to linger as ghosts who get to voice over but not influence their husbands’ descent into hell. Terrific.
I think I agree with this point of view
it would appear George made the choice for that last sailing trip himself, there was no supernatural influence, right ?
I also feel that the central thesis of the spiritual world echoing the material world wasn't explored as much as it could have been. I think the end with George's punishment in hell might resonate more on a deeper emotional level if some scenes were repeated in a parallel. Like, remember that scene where George kind of stalks Willis to her bedroom? Imagine if they'd shot similar scenes in the police station, with Willis stepping up as a damning character witness (instead of poor Eddie ranting ineffectually)...
👏👏
She did influence it though. Something told Justine to wake up. Without Justine there's not a case against him. He only ventures out on the lake cause of the note from Justine.
@@ryansauvage6570 that makes sense, provided you lean fully into the supernatural element... which in turn promises a fitting punishment for George. I like it, thanks for pointing this out!
I just saw it yesterday: I really got mad because police was useless to arrest the husband but I really like the poetic ending.
Bc they had no proof?
The police was useless bc he should have interviewed the babysitter that NEVER went upstairs to check on Catherine! That letter could have been evidence or just the babysitter telling his story about the letter would have been enough to hold and at least question George. Then the babysitters brother was sure George killed Catherine. I do feel like they had enough to sit his ass in a cell to figure shit out.
@@parisjej yeah thats what i was saying tbh. Cus like as good police officers they would tape off the entire house get dna evidence etc and create a timeline of all that went on in the house. And since apparently Catherine was murdered in the day then they would have had to question franny who would have said that she was home all day w Cole or ask George who was watching her or smthn and then woulda found the letter from George to Cole being like Cath is sick dont go upstairs which is hella suspicious. And if they would have taped off the whole thing they probably would have found the drugged protein shake and discover that george bought the sleepy time drug like 2 days ealier. Idk man dodgey police work i think a baby woulda done better but hey this was in the 80s and police work back then was um well it was true to real life LMFAO
@@saturnsextilevenus oh ok it was in the 80s so that explains it 😂 I thought a lot of it had to do with the fact that George was a popular “artist” and “professor” around town so instead of treating him like a suspect they gave him privilege. In 2021 it’s very hard to get away with murder you’d have to be extremely smart bc of all the new technology we have, it’s hard to send messages and or make purchases bc everything you do can be easily tracked through credit cards, videos, and phone records.
I was so annoyed that I wasted my time because I was so confused but then this popped up!! Thank you!
Same
Same
The movie was for intellectuals
Same.
@@BellottiSchrader not at all. It was a 3/10 at best. Don’t get me wrong, the concept is great and thats because of the books. The film adaptation did some of it justice but much of it fell flat on its face. The excessive dragging of the plot, the goofy CGI effects that took me out of the film, the mediocre “scary” scenes, the ending, and the pointlessness of the kids was all very sad to see unfold.
My daughters said the film appeal plunged when Ella and Catherine did the ring pose while waking Justine up.
yes! cut scenes like that made it seem more cheesy and unrealistic, just like the scene with the figures in the window against the rain when travis went to talk to the woman in hospital
plssss that part took me out of the movie completely, i couldn’t believe they did that lmfao.
I get why they set it in the 80s cause that's the type of cheese I'd expect from that era 🤣
I liked it
it was entertaining and refreshing in that it didn't rely on jumbo scares. The CGI threw me in places, but it was still entertaining. Not enough was explained about the boys or how .... became so evil though
Jumbo scares ;D
I will from now on call all jump scares jumbo scares. And now excuse me, I am leg toes tolerant and ate two much ice cream...
@@timofaust1315 Please give autocorrect the credit.
The first and second act were really entertaining, sad that the 3rd act was kinda crappy, and it had plenty of plot holes.
@@KairoK you
If you guys are interested, the book dives a bit deeper into the relationship between George and Cath. Its called All Things Cease to Appear. Maybe you can find answers to your questions in there!
Yeah, this seems like one of those stories best kept on paper. Doesn’t translate well on film. At least not this one lol.
Is there any reason or explanation why the story is so firmly set in 1980?
I didn't see any historical reason: they never really refer to world events or such...
Perhaps Catherine's isolation is made worse by lack of internet/cellphones/social media, but, like, after 2020, I think we're all aware of the limits of online-only communities...
Was it maybe a cultural factor? Smit's wife was killed for not following her husband's teachings & Ella Vayle had to die to keep up Calvin Vayle's reputation, right? George's family is pretty repugnant when it comes to their gay cousin... showing how Catherine is kind of trapped there? In 1980, professors didn't divorce...? Something like that?
@@meinhartfrancois are you ready for this? Cell phones are way too convenient. Think about the scene where she tries to call 911. She had to run into the kitchen and dial and wait for it to ring and he just ripped it off the wall and boom it’s broken and now she has to run upstairs for the other one. Heck these days even if you aren’t near your phone you can yell at it to call 911 and it will, or even just press the power button a certain way. Plus drug testing, DNA evidence, phone records, surveillance footage, etc. would have been used in the investigation and he would have been caught immediately, such as the case of Chris Watts.
Honestly it had me in the 1st half, but such a unsatisfactory ending... I think I'll check the book out and give the story another go.
Thank you for the suggestion!
I actually liked this movie, despite everyone hating it, basically. I disliked the ending, though, as there were things that weren't really explained. But overall, it was fun.
I don't think there could've been a better ending, it's a horror film after all, they're usually not supposed to have good endings
@@musama8771 are you fucking joking horror movies always have great twists in the end to tie the whole plot. That's the worse ending i have ever witnessed in my life.
The first and second acts were golden, its what film critics call dumb fun. Except this movie tried to make the audience think too hard, so we see everything wrong with the movie.
Same
When this film wrapped, I literally apologized to my self and my husband for wasting our time.
Yep, it’s one of those movies.
Same!!!
My whole family just cracked up laughing we want out life back
I fell a sleep 3 times.
Agreed
also, when your body is cold, your fingers tend to be a bit thinner too, so i guess thats why the ring fell of her finger too. very cool
I was so sure when she was drugged that her Eating Disorder was going to come into play and she'd make herself throw up or something, but it never did and I was really sad when she died.
I would've rather seen George be arrested than the weird hell thing personally. That would've been a better ending for me. Also I really like how the movie does show you the thought process behind George's evil. You can see the gears in his head turning to make shitty justifications for his behavior. It never feels cartoonishly evil even though almost everything he does is super shitty to an almost comical degree.
Yessssss this part!!! Could literally read his decision making off of his face
i think thats one of the few things that justyfied me actually liking the movie. i feel like both actors got their part in the toxic relationship so weel. Georges actions and behavior are so credible i could actually see a man irl acting exactly like that
I think the eating disorder was just to show how out of control she felt without needing her to say it or act unhinged. The fact she was drugged with her shake might be a nod to the fact it was something she ate that she had no control over. Other people chose it for her.
I'll say that if it had gone to trial, George probably would've been acquitted and I'll tell you why. Eddie.
Eddie provides reasonable doubt because even though there is a lot of evidence against George, there is also a lot against Eddie. His fingerprints are also on the weapon (means), he was having an affair with her and was friends with the girl George was having an affair with (motive) and he and his brother had regular access to the house plus because his brother was babysitting, he knew when the house would be empty (opportunity). Not to mention the similarities between Cath's death and his Mom's. They can't determine exactly when she died because of the state of the body AND even though George filled the prescription that drugged her, he had a legitimate reason to get the pills and Eddie easily could've accessed them when he 'came into the house.'
It's enough evidence in both directions to get them each acquitted of the crime.
Actually, it's a fascinating strategy. For example, if there are two people who confess to a murder and each one reasonably could've done it, they will both get off even though they confessed. Of course, the confessions must explicitly state that the other person had nothing to do with it or you'll just go down as accomplices
Her eating disorder is important as it shows that the drugs will work fast in her system.
Late but I think the ending was just a symbolic masterpiece. I don't think that George actually died by being sucked into hell (even tho the movie had ghosts, nods to heaven and stuff), but showed what was ahead of him after Justine spoke to the police. He was going to be arrested and his whole perfect persona was going to break into pieces after everyone knew what he did, his personal hell.
I didn't expect this amount of knowledge. I just wanted to be scared but I am learning.....
Lol! Me too
THIS
@@fliptizzy7690 im glad i am not the only one
@@motherofplants8831 i felt kinda stupid that everyone knows about the actual book
this movie is a picture with so deeply engraved meanings that it became almost impossible for the director to express them propery.
So true
I just finished, it was pretty good,But the ending wasn't my favorite...This definitely makes me understand more!
Garbage ending. In my opinion, it all went downhill after the séance. Way too predictable afterwards.
@@disc33 I was going to say,We Almost had a good movie, why do they have to destroy it with that ending, They could have done so much more🤦🏼♀️
@@haleysperbeck5972 I was so disappointed, Haley. It had so much potential. The scares were genuine. Loved their acting and the buildup. Then it had to go and become this poetic nonsense.
@@disc33 Yes, I absolutely agree with you🤨
the ending has great correlation to the movies themes... like religion and ghost etc. in the end, the husband sails the sea trying to escape, but meets his death and he goes straight to hell. that’s why his boat is burning in the middle of the ocean and the ghost woman says “they never win” etc... unlike the typical “he gets arrested in the end” end of movies like this, justice is served in the afterworld. aka, he will burn in hell for eternity while catherine is an “angel” that now protects the house.
Loved this movie, was so sad that Catherine died in the end :(
Don't be sad. George guided her to a new and wonderful existance.
Just finished and I’m damn mad she died but I’d be even more mad if it was a happy ending. It wouldn’t have fit the themes of the movie.
@@timofaust1315 Shut up
She deserved it the child is the only one I feel bad for, she was stuck with two idiots for parents
@@GOD-nx1yo why you say that. She was innocent
Most frustrating ending ever! Loved the whole film except that DAMNED ending. >:(
Same
Yeah I wanted to see George in pain
I found the ending to be in tone with the film's message and plot. But it's so sad. :(
just finished the movie- I wasn't very satisfied with the ending they went with ( I really wanted that husband get arrested or something) like Cath was struggling with ED like wtf she was so innocent and he cheats on her ? bruh
She had sex outside the marriage as well. Not innocent
@@paul-pq4xp thats after she finds out what pos he was, he did it while they were still on good terms? Like tf
I hate cheater and not getting any revenge T.T
@@user-ml4ps5cq3v so she's a child then? He did it so I will too? She knew he was a douche. No pass
@@paul-pq4xp tf? They're not the same. Lmao and what marriage with a psychopath the marriage was already done by then.
This movie is a prime example of “they really had us in the first half”. That second hour was such a letdown after building up to what could have been really good and fulfilling
Why did George decide to go for a sail at the end, was he suicidal/influenced by the evil ghost? He did all those things to cover himself and then decides to sail?
He knows he's screwed cause Justine's awake. His character probably wanted to end life on his own terms.
Yeah he found out Justine will tell the police everything, then his evil spirit tells him to "free himself" instead of going to prison, so he goes to he'll intentionally
@@musama8771 I just finished watching movie and it is same as what I thought...
Wikipedia explains he was supposed to be escaping but then got caught in a bad storm...
I was wondering the same. George doesnt strike me as the type to commit suicide. His narcissistic tendencies and past behaviours make it more likely that he would try and kill Justine than take his own life.
Felt like a very unsatisfying ending. Not to mention the whole clip where he goes into the garage at the beginning and the blood drips through the ceiling is a mistake because he acts surprised/ concerned about it when absolutely no one is around to see. So what is the point of putting on the concerned husband act when you know exactly what happened because you’re the one that murdered her?
That's the point. He was desperately trying to be this fake person. He attacked others when he was afraid that they'd threaten that. It's why he leaves Catherine alone eventhough he knows she's been drugged. George is/was a sick man, he wanted control. The male voice you hear throughout tells him what he needs to do to gain control.
the ending was quite satisfying for me. it follows the themes portrayed in the movie of the after life etc. he goes to hell, burns forever for the sick bastard he is! plus, it was a nice direction to take instead of the usual typical “he gets arrested in the end” that movies do. instead, justice is served in the afterworld, aka, he will burn and suffer while catherine takes care of the house peacefully.
Once he finished staging the crime scene, he likely slipped into the character of the normal husband and played the part all the way through to the end. Maybe he even convinced himself at that point
@@randomspam2719 What was the point in the girl waking from the coma though? Makes zero sense to show that when he just dies in the ocean. Terrible ending, but good film before that
everyone one was talking about how they wasted their time but if you really pay attention to what’s occurring throughout the film you understand it so well. every couple that moves in has an angel wife and a devil husband, abuse is the constant theme throughout the families. the ring is passed on through every women of the home. the foreshadowing is brilliant and you can understand by the last scene on the boat that he died and it paints the opposite of the painting that has been reoccurring throughout their time in this town. the spirts killed him not the storm. it’s just a fantastic film in my opinion.
it’s not a hard movie to understand it just sucks
I got lost with the endless talking and talking. The film was garbage.
I am left wondering if he also killed his cousin and sort of tried to take over his life. Taking his paintings, claiming them as his own. Getting the sail boat. Many suggestions of that being a possibility. Even the talk when relatives were there as to his cousin's personality and George's growing up.
The cousin stuff wasn't real, it was a made up story, I believe this was explain in the movie by the wife when she started to figure out the paintings didn't belong to her husband. Everything about George was a lie.
I'm so glad we have channels like this because I didn't pick up pretty much everything you mentioned in this video and now I want to watch it again
Watching now and then will come back for your video!! Love this channel
Forgot to mention the superstition of a bird entering a home.
Learned a lot from this clip! The very ending of the film killed my buzz but everything else was done with so much love.
That was also the evil spirits showing George a sign.
Came here right after the movie was over. I feel better about it now. 😏
I just watched this and I still don't understand the end in relation to the beginning of the movie. They made it seem like George died on the boat but based on the start of the movie he's alive and with Frannie. And what exactly was happening to her?
If you re-watch it you’ll see the first scene of him with Frannie is the scene in the movie where they call the police to say “apparently something happened”. Him and frannie are in the neighbours house and they’re being wrapped in towels.
he was damned because of all the evil was and did, how in the end she says only the ones who see the gates of hell are the ones in with it, her soul lives on but his soul is burning in hell. evil never wins
Yes, that’s what I want to know? Why was he carrying Frannie in his arms across the field?
@@midgeborer2080 it seems that was right after he hacked his wife up and was going to the neighbors.
@@curtpopejoy9884 still makes no sense as he killed her in the bedroom . So he didn’t move her . The whole movie makes no sense
Darn. I feel so dumb. How do you get all these insights and deep thoughts on the movie? I, for one, just munch on my popcorns and let the scenes pass one after the other, without giving much thoughts. 😥
Think Story ur the BEST!!! 💜 Ur videos are always so thorough and entertaining...
Whenever I watch something, I always check if u did a video on it cause u are so awesome at connecting the dots and explaining everything 🤩 PLUS with fun trivia/facts😃 thank u ❤
I want to say that I found the photography and the transitions of the landscapes to portraits and vice versa: mesmerizing...
Your breakdown is phenomenal!
Great movie! Awesome acting by Amanda Seyfried. Thanks for the deep look I always miss so many things that you pick up on Think Story.
Wow! Thank you. My son and I watched this movie and could not figure out the end. We watched it again thinking that we would catch things that we missed, which would help explain the end. I decided to search the web to see if there was an explanation. I am so glad to have found this video. Now we will watch the movie again with this information in mind. To me, this movie is a masterpiece in its complexity.
Wow you waste no time making these videos but I’m not complaining cause I need them lol good content as always. 😻
I actually really dug the first and second act, they were golden, even though it was all based on a very, very skinny string of coincidences, and the first few seconds of the movie literally spoiled it for us. There were plenty of plot holes, and thank God I wasn't the only one who disliked the 3rd act. Apparently the ghost took over her body when she was sleep so she wouldn't feel pain.....yeah. My biggest plot hole was that if she didn't want the girl to suffer the same fate, then STOP PLAYING PEEKABOO AND SCARE THE FAMILY OUT OF THE HOUSE. You obviously have affect on real objects. The gas smell, the chair rocking, light exploding...hun. if you shut a door in the husband's face and LOCK IT when both the husband and wife know that it wasn't either of them, scare them away. Its like she WANTED the girl to stay long enough so their marriage would become provoked enough for her to get axed.
Oh after watching the movie this explanation is essential. So many little details that i left unnoticed. Good job!
I really enjoyed the film and I enjoy it a lot more with this construct of its symbolism through art and religion. I kinda pieced this stuff together already but the clarity you’ve given made me realise I’d missed a lot. Thank you!
I have just finished watching the movie. Great video! I am happy that I found your channel.
but what happened to Franny? is she still alive at the end?
I really loved the movie and the complexity of the story. However, this video was very helpful in explaining what I missed.
glad this channel exist lessen the hustle of wondering around after watching it
This video very succinctly explains the ending, thank you for this. Great video as always. Unfortunately for me personally, understanding it better doesn't make me enjoy the ending. I think the movie completely goes off the rails in the last 20 minutes or so. I didn't hate the movie, I think it did some things well, and the story was taught enough that I was intrigued to see what was going to happen. I just wasn't expecting this.
Movie went over its own head. Sometimes less is more.
This didn’t explain the ending at all
Just to let u ppl know about George not being arrested (every movie dosent have a happy ending) which is what makes the movie so much more interesting and unpredictable
You'd like The Lovely Bones
Thanks Think Story.. Finally I got some enlightenment about its ending..
I absolutely adored this movie. It was so uniquely beautiful and dark but also light at the same time with Catherine's character. I especially love the conversations it starts and how it leaves a few questions unanswered, or the answers are implied, to leave the conversation open for interpretation. Beautifully done, Netflix. I hear the book it's based on is just as interesting in terms of tone.
wow thanks for this... made me appreciate the film more
You see…this is the reason I like coming over to your channel when I get stuck trying to interpret a movie.
This one I figured out only half of the things you pointed out. But, the MAIN key points I needed to wrap it all up I had no clue.
Everything you brought up made so much sense and help me tie the rest of my thoughts together.
Mahalo and keep sharing your great insights and breakdowns. One of my favorite subscriptions🤙🏾Aloha, Brother 🤙🏾🎼
George was obsessed with his cousin, not sure due to his talent or what.
I guess it was jealously idk theres a scene in the movie of him looking in a mirror being like im the best which 👁👄👁 u just murdered 2 people and an attempted murder so. I guess he just saw that his cousin was naturally talented and loved and maybe george felt in competition? So he wanted to make his own life perfect like Cath said yk wife raising daughter in the coutryside husband professor. Idk tbh major mental issues for sure tho yikesss
Just watched it.. Really enjoyed it! Dunno why such a low score on rotten tomatoes tho.. I'm happy to find out most people liked this
As someone who grew up Catholic on the upside down cross actually does not mean demons evil or anything of the sort it actually represents a holy man that was killed at the cross but he didn't want to be associated with the cross of Jesus due to he was not worthy of such so he had the cross inverted and some stories It's actually an X for only Jesus since his resurrection was the only one that truly should be killed on the cross from then on hence the upside-down cross which is also why when someone's Gothic and you see Gothic Styles upside down crosses are actually very common this has to do with this they weren't originally evil that's only pop culture is now as they saw the goth in the past and people seeing the cross and other religions being upside down as meaning reverse of what the Cross stand for now. I'm no longer in the religion now btw but my family is hard-core still catholic.
Thanks! Good research work! ☆☆☆☆
Can you do Mare of East town? Love the details in your breakdowns.
Thanks for explaining. It all makes sense now.
This film is like a supernatural/horror 'The Talented Mr Ripley'
After watching this my depression kicks in again😟 I feel it all ..
I was a little annoyed/triggered by how much they seemed to glorify death. To refer to it as freeing so many times....I wish that the writer had thought about this and toned that part down a bit.
Loved it!
There was so much symbolism it was amazing 👏🏾
Sounds clever now you've explained it but yeah, I didn't get it overall whilst watching it. Think it should have been a mini series but thanks so much for explaining 👌
Hey think story can you do video on the ending of season 1 on invincible ?
"Have you read the book yet?" No, ain't nobody got time for that. That's why we have Think Story.
How did George get the sedative into Catherine's drink? Wasn't it in a closed aluminum can?
My thoughts exactly!
No, it was already opened I was paying attention because that's exactly what I was expecting him to do so, she just grabbed it and took a sip... already opened
And throughout the whole DAMN movie she wasn’t eating and was skipping protein shakes, but when she decides to leave him is when she also decides to drink something he gives her
@@melissadavis18 I think it was to appease and distract him in that moment because he esentially caught her trying to escape with their daughter.
Currently watching this movie as I sneakily watch this video with one airpod in, thanks for saving me the time! Gonna find an excuse and bail now. (Typing this like a text lol)
My mom as soon as the film ended : Finally ! I’m going to bed !
Nice explanation of key things from the movie. I was interested in the metaphysical aspects, not all of which I picked up during the movie though I did google Swedenborg. The ending to me unsatisfactory. Perhaps I should watch it again.
I liked the movie I was entertained and not bored and the actors who play the husband and wife gave a good performance 🎬
I think the ending is a bit bitter sweet but unfortunately true many womens are victims of manipulative men who only think (care) about their careers and i think her husband was gone to be a killer. we see several times in the film that is quite strange
Will you cover The Nevers?
Any one catch the Better Call Saul connection when they said "Justice", and showed Rhea Seahorn's face?
absolutely loved this movie! it really reminded me of the movie 'mother'
Just finished the movie, I hated it. But loved the breakdown
This movie was interesting! Thanks for your insights
I wanna find the instrumental for the last scene it was so pretty 🥺
i loved it! very good acting by Amanda :) i never liked her that much but now i do
It was good and the ending was satisfying enough, especially when the movie started with the saying that things in the afterlife are more real than things IRL. The ending was a juxtaposition to the cover art on dude’s book. Made enough sense to me.
Hello can you put a caption in that video please? Because i cant understand just by listening. Your review seems interesting. Thankyouu
You can turn on captions by tapping on the three dots there at the top right corner of the screen
I think it has a really refreshing storyline. I read somewhere that the director recommends watching the movie twice so we'd catch details and understand it. Overall, it's a good film.
4:18 that’s partially true. But the inverted cross was originally representative of Saint Peter, who was crucified upside down. In the bibble I mean
Very true. When I was doing research they mentioned St. Peter, but I decided just to mention and just go for what it's known for more nowadays. Thanks for bringing up that important tidbit though :)
I was saying the same thing, didn't notice you'd already mentioned it.
@@ThinkStory oh no that’s fine. I honestly don’t even know if it applies to the film. Saint Peter I mean
It was an avg movie 🎥
Thanks for the explanation
Great movie. I feel I understood the film better after watching your video because I learned about all the details I missed which were very meaningful and crucial to understanding the film overall. Thank you!
I’m so glad it decided to go full crazy and commit
It wasn't terrible, and Amanda is still nice to look at! :) The story wasn't really cohesive in parts and might have fared better in parts. Check out Mare Easttown on HBO Max, Rose from Titanic is good in it so far...
So weird. I was watching one of your old videos and this notification came on 🙂
What a complex, beautiful moving
I was never certain if the evil spirit was Mr. Vayle or Mr. Smit.
I loved the story, and for a Netflix film, it was surprisingly good. I'm not into the supernatural, so the earthly tension between characters kept me enthralled. This was a great allegory for the constant oppression of women.
It’s a great movie And not that confusing at all highly recommend
nah man there wasn't even any story to the movie like bruh
i really enjoyed the movie. it feels fresh: the ghost comforting Catherine, gaining power and helping Justine wake up. i was a bit surprised at this new vision. George definitely killed his cousin and stole his paintings. i don’t know what to think about the gay diary thing. not enough info to suggest he made it up, although given its George and he’s pure evil wouldnt put that past him. i liked the ending ‘cause it looked cool and gave the movie kinda a circle story feel. i always like when they do that. Amanda is beautiful as always but she seriously looks skinny in this one. such a shame. i love a more healthy look on her.
nobody else felt it was 2 very good movies merged in one bland mess?
So many hidden messages and connections with no real purpose. Watched the movie and still have no idea what it was trying to say.
That's the most strangest ending I have even seen (and heard :p)
Typically when a series/show/movie BEGINS with a cliff hanger and then gives a timeframe prior leading up to current day (i.e. "Winter 1980" then "the spring prior")...it makes its way nicely to the explanation of said cliffhanger. Maybe I missed something, but why in the world did we have that opening scene with Franny being carried off by George? Wth was that all about? What did I miss? Was it his own dream? I keep looking for an answer to that question. Am I the only one? 🤣
The upside down cross is mistakenly associated with Hell and evil. It’s actually called The Cross of St.Peter. He felt he didn’t deserve to die as Christ did and requested to be crucified upside down. I’m tired of Hollywood ignorantly using this incorrect trope in supernatural movies.
If i only knew this film would be this complicated i would skip it. Gosh it’s so hard to find films i can watch thesedays 😖
