![The Lord of the Rings: Gollum - Angry Review [WORST GAME OF THE YEAR!?!]](/img/n.gif)
for me the most disappointing scare of the movie was the Foxy jumpscare. That had so much potential, and they fucked it up by having him teleport in front of the camera, instead of running down the hallway like he does in the game
But he did run down the hallway....
@@Apac12 if you call teleporting to the camera and then proceeding to float towards it “running”,then yeah he he sure did.
This movie is one of those weird things where I liked it, but completely get anyone not liking it lol
Yeah.
There are a lot of times where I enjoyed the fanservice while also infuriated at Mike for punching an innocent father senselessly while not mustering that same bravado against Afton in the end.
That and how many punishment Vanessa would have gotten had the police figured out about Vanessa holding reports.
Also that scene where the animatronic haunting went full Mortal Kombat Fatality.
I mean it’s pretty obvious people who played and grew with the games liked it and people who don’t know anything about it won’t care and won’t like it
Same, I like the movie, but get the people who might have not liked it. I guess this movie was more of a movie for the fans.
It's called a "guilty pleasure"
Bascially me with Starfield.
The fact that this game went from being an indie game - to a series, then to a movie is absolutely amazing. I respect the creator for creating a franchise that’s beloved by a fan base.
I’m not a fan of the series, but I respect it.
Without CZcamsrs it wouldn't be anything, the creator got lucky and capitalized on it
@@Arc_Eden This is true for most game horror franchises now, not just FNAF. CZcams reacting makes these games big when they otherwise likely would have died out and been lost in the weeds
@@Arc_Eden So he made a smart business decision? Sounds pretty impressive to me
@@Arc_Edenlike mostly every other game which is played on youtube doesn’t take away anything most indie will get a CZcamsr play and you never see it again and there’s no fanbase
CZcamsrs are influencers as they brain wash ppl to play it and then it goes viral etc. Ppl who cant think for themselves tend to get influenced quite often
They’re 100% going to do a sequel seeing as how the movie ended. In the original lore William Afton kept coming back as the big bad final boss of the games and is the overarching antagonist of the franchise. Heck the dude was sent to hell (literally) and still came back in the form of Glitchtrap and Burntrap.
Plus i really do agree on most of the points you guys pointed out. This movie uses the same tropes and themes every other horror movie you have seen have used. The only thing worth anticipated for in this movie is how well they were gonna incorporate the lore with the side plot of Mike trying to protect his sister abby from the animatronics.
They really could have done better. But it’s still a big massive fanservice to longtime FNAF fans and i appreciate their effort
Given its insane haul on opening weekend, it was going to get a sequel no matter what happened in the ending.
Also wondering if they're setting up Vanny.
Appreciate their effort. Lol. What shit standards you have and think it is ok
also...... it made a buttload of fking money.
mathew lillard signed on for 3 films, so they already were planning on doing more
You know for a game all about jump scares the movie had like 3.
*It was a crime* that they didn’t do the “Open this door, Close this door, conserve power till morning” aspect in the film. No phone guy? He was the perfect vehicle into the games. No kids cheering at 6am. Feels like they left out the charming parts in the game - and skipped through a few games of lore. Could’ve been worse tho.
@@firstlast9846 But there was a phone guy the first night
And they were all mostly balloon boy😂
Literally nothing happens in the first hour. I felt like I was watching a Daytime TV drama about an Alcoholic Single Father fighting for custody of his daughter. Then the monsters finally show up, and they immediately take the mystique and horror out of them by having the little girl and security guards become their friends
3 of the same jumpscare 🤣 and the last one doesn't even make sense
Alex is extremely good at explaining why he likes or dislikes a film, I myself thought this was a straight average film, but Alex may have changed my mind on this. The thing that saves this film that the Halo TV show didn't know is absolutely the dedicated core fanbase. Nobody in the world has ever said that the scenes with Chief and Kwan-Ha were so emotional, the girl who wanted to do drugs in the forest is super relatable. They were making a movie and adding Halo elements and the fans spoke. FNAF, while this side quest with Mike may be new, the core audience love the animatronics, lore, Easter eggs and cameos despite it being mediocre. It was a film for the fans even though it was not good, but the fans still appreciate that I think.
It's a good flim to me
Explained it perfectly tbh
He also takes a moment to be condescending and insinuate that anyone who views a movie differently than him requires "velcro shoes" ironically
True... although bias sometimes is apparent. But thats okay we all are biased. But i agree with you that Alex explains it the best of the bunch
Alex is extremely good at being a prick who looks down his nose at anyone who likes things that he doesn't.
21:49 he doesnt beat him up bcuz he reminds him of his dad. He beats him up bcuz he thinks the kid is getting kidnapped. Considering his brother got kidnapped when he was younger and he feels like he couldve prevented it. So, this was a sort of redemption for him in the sense that he could stop this from happening. I dont think it's totally unbelievable
Yeah I think maybe they’re going a little hard on everything because of the other parts of the movie making them upset. Mike having unresolved anger and going hard because of what happened with Garrett and pummeling that guy
@@TheRockinAwesomeOne ya, like i do like the movie. It's definitely not a masterpiece or anything, it has issues. But this particular issue isn't hard to believe imo lol
But how did he not go to jail for a few years for attempted murder or jus aggravated assault like what😂
@@austinsanchez4694 idk maybe the other guy didnt want to press charges? Maybe they went to like a preliminary hearing or something and Mike mentioned what had happened to him in the past. It's just not very important to story the director and them thought, so they didnt bother showing it
he literally says he thinks he gets kidnapped like 10 seconds before the time stamp… 21:30
The threat of the animatronics is they they're insanely strong and like 7 feet tall. Stalking you through dark hallways, waiting to forcefully stuff your body into a robot shell, until you're a broken paste inside of it.
And in this film they chose to keep the animatronics on stage for 90% of them film, pretty much taking away any kind of threat. Fans know what might happen if you're caught but the normie viewer won't know what the hell the threat is.
I'm a huge fan of the games. Grew up with them and was eagerly awaiting the movie. The trailers made it look 'alright', but after seeing the critic scores I went into it expecting something absolutely terrible. Walking out of it, I actually really enjoyed the movie. I'm not sure if it's because my expectations were so low, but as a fan, I had a great time. I'd give it a 7/10, although if you're not familiar with the games or deep into the lore/fandom, I could easily see this being a confusing and boring watch.
The TLDR is FNAF is basically Fan Service: The Movie. It was extremely faithful to the lore, had all the CZcamsr cameos I grew up with, and ultimately it was awesome seeing all these characters on the big screen. The pop at the end of the film when a FNAF fan song was used over the end credits was huge too.
With that being said, I do hope the inevitable sequel(s) are a tad darker, scarier, and have a bit tighter of a narrative.
You do not know what you’re talking about this is not faithful the games lore at all. There is no introduction of Henry, and Michael is a completely different character in this movie.
It'll just end up like the venom movies with worse and worse filler. FNAF 2 Electric Boogaloo (there's no plot, just wasting your time for 2 hours while the parents are out for dinner).
Seriously this movie was like "CZcams kids the movie".
@@duszy2602 FNAF Lore directly from the games is fucking awful. MatPat & The Theorists are the entire reason this movie/story was written.
@@shauL__ those are game theory lores but on the actual FNAF books the story is present I’m not talking about the books I’m talking about those Guides the ultimate guide literally explains the lore how the creator wanted.
Nostalgia bait the movie.
I'm happy for fans of the game that enjoyed the movie. I think my problem is that I was just a casual fan of the first game, and didn't really know or understand a lot of the lore, and I got expectations of it to be more "scary" or "dark" in tone. It really wasn't a scary movie at all, I at least expected there to be jump scares, but don't even recall any. None that were really effective anyway.
Why do people keep saying there were no jump scares and nothing happened. Were you all watching asleep. The cupcake in the locker even if you don't like it, was a jump scare. They had action the first 5 minutes but people keep saying the robots did nothing. Then you had them attack the robbers...and one gets cut in half and they show it but somehow that's not good enough for those who want R rated in a pg 13 movie for kids. Sigh.
@@nichescenes So let's me get this straight, 1 measly jumpscare, 3 minutes of a dude running around in the dark and then get killed by a saw trap knockoff and about 7 minutes of animatronics killing people that ends with a really hilariously death ... all that in a 1h50 minutes movie and that's enough to please you ? dear god man, your standard is so low people can serve you warm beer and you'll call it gourmet
@@nichescenesthis movie was boring me and my date had trouble staying up. I left early.
@@justarandomdouchebag5942 I didnt say i thought this movie was great or the best thing I've ever seen in my life geeze you cynical types think being edgy hate everything makes your opinions more critical. Pat yourself on the back. All I was pointing out was that the film literally contradicts a lie going around "seems the net is in love with doing this" that their are no jump scares and the robots do nothing and the movie has no plot etc. Stating facts being a bad thing is your prerogative. You skipped that someone's body got bisected, and the so called all that happens in 1 hour and 50 minutes has a plot for those fans of the material. But again I don't care if you hate it, I don't like it, but I realize what it was, its just a decent time for fans and it does what the fans want and for 20 million that's fine, I'm betting your the type that has a huge standard deviation on good and bad films mostly skewed negative unless its prestige. Given how you think me not calling a movie the worst thing everrrr means I drink warm beer and think its the best thing ever...give me a break. People can watch early GOT and not like it and be the same who like Breaking bad, opinions are a thing.
@@simpaixhempai6266 You likely weren't the target demo. The critics hate it but fans enjoy it. Or you came in wanting a different movie aka R rated robots taking a guy out in a simple survive the night plot, fair enough but that's not what they wanted to go for an its fine. The toxic if I don't get what I want=bad movie takes leave no nuance.
I love how they completely forgot about the aunt in the last act.
Yeah wtf 😂
Now how is Mike gonna explain the dead aunt in his home (that he has documented tensions with) that likely died violently to the cops?
This is one movie where the critics are right lol which is hardly the case.
I mean they were right about mario too
Just the way he said Scott cawthon I knew there was no way joe was gonna enjoy this movie
If a movie requires you to dick ride its creator in order to enjoy it then it's not a good movie
Im a fan of the games and the movie unfortunately was kind of a let down
Since politics are a factor, it's hard to take any outside criticism seriously but this should have come out at the height of the game's popularity.
PG 13 ruined the hell outa the movie…
The movie would’ve been shit regardless of Scott’s donations to Trump.
The Velcro shoe line from Alex got me dead 💀
Markiplier lucked out not starring in this lmao
He was gonna be the guard that died at the start lmao
Unfortunately, in the lore, he does go home. So it wouldn't have made sense for him to get stuck there. One other thing I liked this more than Super Mario because I actually liked the story. Fnaf if you really look at the lore isn't actually that scary but it's got great characters and great world-building and I saw all of that here. Unfortunately unlike Super Mario I just feel like they didn't explain enough stuff and didn't flesh things out enough. By the way Scott Cawthon, the one who wrote it is the creator of the game so he did take the source material seriously and that kind of hurt me when you said they didn't, but it's all opinions and I will say Five Nights is not for everyone especially where the lore goes after the first few games.
Ya i was gonna say. The lore is insanely weird. Like i have very limited knowledge of it, i watched a few mattpatt viddos talking about the early games. Anything after like 3 onwards i stopped caring. But like the original 2 games.. the dude goes to work for five nights (hence the name lol) that would make even less sense if they went crazier with the movie and he kept coming back. Like after literally seeing the animatronics actively trying to kill u every night... then u just show up the next day for ur shift? Lol. They were already complaining about this movie him going back after just seeing the animatronics walk around and talk to his sister. They would have a meltdown if it was 100% faithful
I enjoyed Mario much more. Fnaf story was just doing too much for something so simple. All the sleeping and dreaming and the "evil aunt" custody battle was not needed whatsoever. Really should have just been him stuck in there trying to escape...or if he just had to go home have him be a mini detective and doing research on the establishment and getting familiar with the history...asking himself questions and finding out what is truly going on with this place and these animatronics and needing to go back inside each night to find more clues inside the establishment to his puzzle. I wanted to know about Freddy's pizzeria...did not care about his childhood trauma and needing to sleep to find clues all while having a family dispute for custody and having to go to work at night where it just so happens that the animatronics come alive and attacked him once. At least Mario went on a quest/adventure...fnaf just had me sleeping just as much Mike was lol
@@bigchrisXl bruh i sure loved beastiality the movie. It is all opinion based but i felt like Five Nights had a story where Mario was just member berries the movie and was cringe most of the time.
@@NaruBrilu well i mean in the lore the reason the animatronics attack are because Mike looks like Afton so it makes sense they dont attack in the movie because Mike in the movie has no relation to Afton I dont think and Vanessa looks nothing like Afton. So, that's why I was fine with it. Also I thought Hutcherson did a great job as Mike and I dont get why they didnt lije him that much.
@@TylersTuesdayToyReviews To me the fnaf story was like they took a completely different movie that had a different title that was about a man dealing with childhood trauma from his brother being abducted and is obsessed to solve the mystery through his dreams...and then they slapped "Five nights at Freddy's" on it and wrote in he gets a job and that mystery kids in his dreams are the animatronics where he works. To me the story just could have been so much better for what the premise that Im aware of is about...a man has to work and survive nights of animatronics trying to capture him. That's was my mindset going into this movie and just not what I took from it in the end.
I think this is one of those movies where if you're a big fan of the games you'll like the movie but a casual fan or someone not familiar with the games wont like it
Basically it's not a surprise as Joe made it upfront from the news video that he never cared much for it.
I just finished watching it and i thought it waz great!! I didnt know it was based on a game. I like almost all movies with ghost children though.😂
Tbh I didn't know anything about the game and I enjoyed it.
Pretty terrible way to make a movie if you want it to expand the fan base. Which is presumably the point of making the movie… otherwise just make another game 🤷♂️
@@Jthanson88 the dude who made the video game got “cancelled” so he basically just said fuck it I’m making a movie
I feel like the movie was an all around faithful in creation to the game/games. However you have to be an already established member to know or even enjoy it. I personally don't consider the movie horror, maybe a thriller at times? But overall I think this film is a key target to those that know the games, know the lore and have been wanting a movie. Personally I wasn't looking for a movie, although to see a faithful(ish) rendition from Blumhouse was a welcomed sight. All in all I believe these movies are a pure target to the already established fanbase and may attract a few outsiders but nothing extreme, I also believe that these movies are meant to act as 'bones' for the overly confusing and extremely compounding lore of the games, books etc and all that or maybe even another timeline (because timelines make jank lore easy to fix). Overall went with a friend, we both gave it a 7. Nothing groundbreaking but a welcome addition that i am still dumbfounded exists.
Odds are, the movies are going to be entirely seperate because there's not really a good way to connect the movie to the games.
@@mrjtfang2 Oh it'd be entirely possible to do so. Help wanted already established that the first 4 games were "Created by a rogue indie developer". They could always pull a Wes Cravens new nightmare kind of shtick where the original movie was just that in universe, a movie. One that was funded by the Fazbear corporation to make light of the "crazy stories".
Member disssss
Bro this movie sucked I know the lore. They literally fucked up the entire story.....Vanessa is in the wrong timeline. I want faithful adaptations......not changed stories and characters where they don't belong.....2/10. Points given for design of animatronics
@@gamerdudeforlife101 isn't this the creators of fnaf script?
Not everything has to be made into a movie.
This movie was clearly made with kids in mind. They didnt want to traumatize the kids, and most importantly, they didnt want to offend the parents.
exactly
Didn’t want to traumatize kids but pushed the kidnapper and child killer agenda?
It was made for fans
@rewtytewty8258 thats not an excuse as a fan myself
Then they shouldn't make a movie about ghosts possessing anamatronics and killing people. The whole premise of five nights is to hardcore for kids in the first place
This movie is for the fans. As was already said. It had a pg13. And it should have been more adult. And it should be longer. BUT if you like the games. Know the lore. It's an amazing movie of a game. Fnaf was never really about gore or supper horror.
Exactly, I have seen so many people bring up the lack of gore and it needing to be R Rated....Thats not FNAF. It never has been.
That’s kind of unrealistic to expect, in my opinion. The ages of the fanbase range from kids all the way to adults. Having the movie be rated R really limits the amount of people who can watch it.
@blueflare3848 bro this is not faithful.....it's a fanfic.
Bro i have been a fan since fnaf 2. I loved almost everything fnaf, besides the books. I did not like the movie. The sleep over scene ruined almost the entire movie. And for that guy above me who said fnaf was not about gore. You are correct. But there was gore in the games. If you lost in fnaf 1 you would see your characters eyes sticking out of the suit.
Can the movie actually be scary at least? At least build up tension and have some good jump scares? Isn't that what the game is known for?
If you look at it as a horror film or just a film, then yeah it's awful but my friends and I still enjoyed it since we kinda grew up with the franchise and we loved the little easter eggs and references so we're definitely looking forward to the second film
i think why some people are frustrated about fanservice being jingled in front of you like a dad does to his children to get their attention is because its...just that.
Thats also what is wrong with Mario from my knowledge, no actual story that is going anywhere and grabs its audience attnention by the titals ability to immerse an audience that has already accepted the stakes and lore, while it fails at immersing anyone who isnt familiar making the only thing captivating memberberries. Which like if you really wanted to remember them, play the game right? Or watch a matpat video but thats just my opinion
There's no reason why it couldnt have all the easter eggs while also having a good script. Its crazy how many people like you are loyal, obedient consumers when it comes to a brand you like lmao
You can like a movie and still say it's shit. It has flaws and well i want a horror movie to be scary this is not. It fails as a movie it succeeds as a franchise. As it grows bigger they can deliver less and the fans will just eat it up it is what it is.
@@Kino-K I said I enjoyed the film with my friends while also saying it's awful. You can't really call me loyal because I hated security breach
@@revolver2750 I literally said it's an awful film but my friends and I enjoyed it. Some of them said it was mid, some of them said it was peak. I was the one who had mixed feelings but still enjoyed it
I remember wondering why breaking in *during the day* would make Mike look incompetent. I think Vanessa accused him of leaving a door unlocked? But like… it was the garage door. It was never unlocked, unless it had always been left unlocked and Vanessa was gaslighting him because of the meds - which is very plausible. But the gang breaking in during the day was still a dumb way to get in trouble the *night guard*.
I think is was more so they were going to destroy everything even the cameras to make it seem like Michael did it himself to get him fired
My kid has been a huge fan of the series for years now. I didn't see this as a R-rated horror movie that's been toned down, but as a PG movie that was a much more scary movie for the family, including and especially for kids. The story was serviceable enough for my kid, and it exceeds my (admittedly) low expectations.
It's not really meant for kids. I have to agree it's meant to have an R rating.
@@vincentzhaiven4017 Are you kidding? This film was for 8 year olds.
@@functionatthejunction the film if appropriately made , following accurate lore absolutely would not be for kids. So no. I'm not kidding.
@@functionatthejunction the film as is i agree is a joke because they had kids in mind. For whatever reason.
@@vincentzhaiven4017the lore isn’t really accurate Vanessa is In The wrong timeline
My husband and I don't play the games, but we are into the lore. We both enjoyed the movie. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. There were only 5 people in our showing when we went.
The thing with this movie is it please the main fanbase and that was the main goal. Casual fans or average movie goer seem to be the main negative critics. That is a better and smarter turnout than lets say Halo that tried to do neither.
The people who would even go watch this movie don't care about movies. They want game lore and references and fanservice. They don't want a good movie. They got a massage from Scott and left happy and that's all they wanted so good for them. The movie itself is still bad.
To be fair, This movie is purely for the fan base and it does a fantastic job of appealing to the FNAF fans
No it does not. I am a fan, but every single callback, easter-egg and lore-reveal wasn't done justice at all! No subtlety, no mystery, everything is so clumsily beating you over the head. Not to mention there are WAY to many characters (poorly concieved ones too) undercutting the helpless feel of isolation that the first few games had. I cannot understand how fans of the games liked this movie, it was crushingly disappointing on every level except the aesthetic.
@austynsingletary183 Honestly, i have to agree, and i know many of the fans didn't like it. I think this video was steaming pile of crap story wise and the characters were not believable. I don't know what Scott was thinking with this. That being said I'll give it the benefit of that it was made more for kids so they couldn't go as dark as they should of to do the lore some legitimate justice.
@@austynsingletary183 Lol bruh, I love the game and the movie, but your asking them try and tell a story from a (let alone scott had to do large number of rewrites for the movie) game that's story is long, stupid and convoluted with small drops of the books aswell (that NO ONE READ). I'm glad they didn't follow the game story, it wouldn't be fun and won't work for a REAL movie.
And if you think the game story was "good", The truth is we wouldn't know what the story was without Game theory and that's a fact.
@@hotfuzz4416True that it's better that they tried to go their own way about the story, but at the same time execution of it wasn't good. Uninteresting characters, stakes that are basically as low as they can be, almost no atmosphere and zero tension. The whole subplot with that gang and the aunt was useless since it amounted to nothing, and the animatronics (while they looked fantastic) didn't feel threatening or even scary. Not even the red eyes could make them scary/threatening. I get that it was a fanservice kind of movie that was aimed more towards children, and the references were cool, however the movie was just boring. It lacked personality.
I’m a FNAF game fan and this movie was disappointing I didn’t hate it tho. My biggest issue is that it wasn’t scary at all! Also I think there was only two jumps area which is ridiculous for a game based on jumpscares.
So reveal of the villain here was weak considering he just ‘dies’ after and his motivations wasn’t explained.
Gonna need a DeadSpace, R rated movie.
Didn't they announce they would make a Dead Space film by John Romero? I wonder what ever happened with that.
@@andresgonzalez5676 they did actually! They’ve also announced a Gears of War show, so I hope that’s EXTREMELY dark and Horror inspired.
my expectations were so low that I wasnt disappointed
idk why anyone has high expectations for a FNAF movie lmao, it's like having high expectations for a slender man movie
@@wlot28 that slender man movie sucked ass too
@@wlot28I had high expectations for the FNAF Movie, and it was perfect imo
@@extremeytgaming5826we are going to continue gettin mediocre video game adaptations because of u, stop striving for medicoracy
@@austinsanchez4694It’s not mediocre, it was really good imo
I actually really enjoyed the movie and saw it a few times in theaters with different friends and groups and it seems fans enjoy it more but I mean the people I saw it with who never knew anything about fnaf still very much enjoyed it.
You need to not know anything about the series to enjoy it unfortunately because then you won't see how bad it is. But if you liked it good for you i guess. But alex is right people need to stop praising movies like this otherwise we'll keep getting them which none of us want.
@@vincentzhaiven4017I really disagree with you on that part
As a FNAF fan i'm kinda glad I didn't see it in theaters. Very underwhelming movie. We waited *EIGHT* years for THIS.
@@Sonic171K I thought you were going to say that you didn't go to watch it on tatro because of the kids shouting and clapping for something, but in your case it's just a minority as well as people who never knew FNAF and liked it or thought it was good, they're just minorities
I think it was a great introduction to scary movies for kids. It's not over the top, It's not gory, there are no boob flashes or sex scenes, and the jump scares are not too much . Being a horror movie lover, it was exactly the tempo to introduce my youngest to scary movies and increase the level of horror movie choices over time. Without freaking them out or turning them off to scary movies. You need to realize it really wasn't for the older crowd even though the game has a strong adult fan base it was for kids.
Like Goosebumps, then?
@neo-didact9285 goosebumps was one of the choices, yes. Is there an issue with multiple choices in regards to introducing scary movies? There's also are you afraid of the dark and tales from the crypt. The fact that they exist doesn't change what I said. It's a good introduction to scary. Without being over the top. Just because there's a few doesn't mean there can't be any more... unlike goose bumps, fnaf is modern and something they grew up knowing, so it was exciting to them to see it. My kids weren't born in the 90's lol so goosebumps is just an old book to them.
@@aceofspadez131 Calm down. It's not bad if it's like Goosebumps. I enjoyed FNAF too.
I feel like a movie like this doesn't deserve box office success. It's insanely cheap and low effort to make and Hollywood always gets away with it because people tolerate it
That first thing you said applies to almost all Blumhouse films. It's astonishing how fans can sweep under the rug everything that holds the movie down just because they know what the film is based on.
I’d say it’s up there compared to other blumhouse trash. The sets and the animatronics alone show of way more effort then a fucking cgi smile or an app that counts down your time before death.
Oh stfu 🤣 I want more of movies like these. Just dumb fun. The only thing it needed was a bit longer run time.
@@Pand0rasAct0r_ It was dumb but there wasn't a lot of fun. Most people agree the film drags and has too much story for its own good in such a short runtime.
Holly you're drunk. Go back to sleep
Someone pointed out that this isn't horror... it's more like Are you afraid of the dark or goosebumps.... it's the gateway to the horror stuff. back in my day, it would have been rated PG, I feel this is alot like Gremlins or the goonies.
Are you afraid of the dark and goosebumps is scarier than this movie
I think the problem is that they went into this expecting a full on horror movie when FNAF has never fully been about horror. It was a very bleak and depressing story about trauma, child murder, and some dark humour. It's more of a thriller than anything.
Fnaf wasn’t even suppose to be fnaf just blew up lol
Bro it's objectively a horror game franchise in the horror genre, stop your coping.
@@Apac12 Play Security Breach, and then tell me it's horror
@@chainsaw8507this is based on fnaf 1 not security breach.
Sure, let's go with that (despite the fact that people played all of the games in anticipation of jumpscares and at least some fear involved), then where were any of the thrills? There is virtually zero tension in any parts of the film. Halfway through the main cast are all best friends with the animatronics, building forts and having a jolly time. Even at the end when they "turn", there's still no real danger because every nearby electronic device defeats them instantly. A thriller keeps you on the edge of your seat anticipating what might happen next, this movie nearly put me to sleep.
i myself really enjoyed this one. it wasn't really what i was expecting, but i left the theater with a big smile on my face 😊
All the fnaf fans coping so hard
I think the movie is fine and a love letter to the very weird community it has built. It could’ve been so much better if they had more of the Tone they have in the trailer with the yellow bunny creeping out of the shadow.
(Not using names etc for spoilers)
You saying I'm weird for liking the games? Lol
@@theunchartedwolf8996 of course not, but let’s also not act like a community who counts robot teeth and toes for a deeper analysis on the story beats is a normal thing either. 😂
Yeah it should’ve had more jumpscares but the creators said that this movie isn’t for newcomers to the series it’s for the fans
I was a fan of the series, and even I'm disappointed in it.
If that's true, then they would've had more jumpscares since the franchise is known for its jumpscares.
There is now an entire generation of kids/teens that grew up with FNAF and sees it as part of their identity. They're not going to be objective viewers of this crap no matter how bad it is.
Are we talking about FNAF or Star Wars here lol
I didnt go into this movie thinking it was going to be a horror movie. I went because i am a fan of fnaf. I enjoyed it. It pays its respects to the franchise and added new characters into the story (assuming theres no Charlie). Fnaf has been about fan service, theories and lore since the first game. Most of us went into this movie wondering what theories we could get from it or if it would answer any questions. Would it follow the game or be its own story?? For Mike to be stuck in the pizzeria wouldnt make any sense because we know he goes home after his shift is over. Hes never been stuck there. Acting was decent, atmosphere/design was amazing, soundtrack was good. There doesnt need to be gore or an R rating for it to be a good movie. It's fun and good for what it is.
Im not a critic, im a fnaf fan. I enjoyed it and everyone will have their own opinion but im excited for more of these movies for more fan service and the lore.
Not big on FNAF, haven't really seen the movie, but all of Joe's and crew complaints seems to be that he doesn't like the parts that are true to FNAF, and just wants kills and gore of a franchise that has never been about gore, no game has blood, all violence has always been implied.
Seems to me Joe should at least do a bit of research about stuff, like, I just know about the franchise from some youtube videos and MattPatt (back when I used to watch it), FNAF never been particularly good in it's story, add the books (which are supposed to be canon) there's time travel, IA, ghost, fusioned ghost, IA replicas of a dead guy who thinks it's a ghost, actual IA body snatcher, mechanic IA esqueleton using a corpse to move around, zombie who is smart and trying to stop the bad things from happening, etc.
Not to mention sll the time the animatronic where "just IA killing randoms" then "posessed animateonics seeking vengeance agaist only the bad guy" then just "killing every adult they come across night shift because all adults seems to be the bad guy to them".
I believe that's the main problem with the franchise, just seems to be a jumbled mess if ideas, barely related, who's only purpose is to make Mattpat wrong each time he seems to have a coherent plot theory (you can't convince me that ScottCawton doesn't just throws to the trash plot details just to mess with Mattpat because he called shot right)
All in all, the movie sounds like a faitfull FNAF story
They made it very clear that it’s for fans nobody else
As a fan, I am definitely a little disappointed with some things. But also as a fan, I liked it and give it a 6/10
If they put Markiplier in the movie, "fans" would have gave it a 10/10
As a non-fan who is familiar with all the lore that MatPat has layed out over the years, but haven't played the games myself because I hate jumpscares... I LOVED the movie and its subplot about the robots wanting Mike's sister and I gave it a 6/7. Is it cliche with the whole "main character has to realize what is most important to him and let go of the past"? Yes, but I am also a huge softie.
@TotallySearch and that's the problem. Rabid fans just give mediocre films a pass because there's cameos and references
@@PikaLink91I wouldn't say cliché
I felt sorry for that poor cab driver. You know he’s never going to stop have nightmares about Golden Freddy.
Do you know what that is?
Golden freddy wasnt in the movie
@omjushating then who do you think killed the aunt then took Abby to the restaurant?
@@christianweibrecht6555 regular freddy.
@@christianweibrecht6555 nvm i looked it up and its golden freddy, i thought wrong
The movie has no tension and it's not scary. I enjoyed it more than Willy's Wonderland soley because it's a faithful adaptation of the game. It's fun seeing the animatronics brought to life. Also I loved shaggy in this role.
It fails at being a horror / thriller, but it did a pretty decent job being FNAF, the movie.
It failed at being a good movie.
@@spraragen88 Nah, jusy in horror
Willys wonderland was a better five nights at Freddy's than five nights at Freddy's
This movie was not good. I do not understand the hype. It wasn't scary at all and it wasn't entertaining.
I enjoyed the movie and I saw it with my sister the night it came out. It was fun seeing all the lore coming in and being a long time fan is most likely going to make you enjoy it more like it did for me (obviously not all fans of the series will like it). I don't think it was scary, I think it is a niche movie that has another genre it would of been listed under. But I had fun going out to the movies for the first time since before covid. I think that a lot people rate movies for the experience they had and not necessarily the movie which is something I do myself a lot. Also I don't consider this movie to even have jump scares, all but maybe 1 seemed comical and most people in the theatre laughed too, it felt like this ended up being the intention imo.
This being rated PG-13 meant a lot of younger kids saw the movie too and anyone probably younger than 21 is going to have a much different experience than people 30+ including myself. I can understand and respect why a lot of people didn't like it though.
What experience would be different? I hope you arent implying anyone over 5 would be remotely frightened by this.
I like how Joe thinks this movie is supposed to be modern day, even though if you look closely at the start of the movie when Mike is in the waiting room the security tape clearly says "2000". And on top of that there are other clues that show it's not modern such as Mike having a freaking TV with a VCR (popular in the early 2000's) and there's a chia pet commercial.
Ngl blumhouse isn’t exactly the best studio for horror movies. If the movie was more story driven it would have been better but it was clearly marketed for children. I’d say the gradual change in the fan base over the course of the franchise’s history is what ruined the movie. If the movie was as gritty as the first game it would have been a masterpiece considering it stayed true to its founding.
It’s a flawed movie, but a perfect love letter to fans. I really enjoyed it. It’s everything I could have hoped for.
How old are the typical fan I'm 47 and know next to nothin bout any of it
@@jeremycassin6799I’d say they’re mostly teenagers. First game came out in 2014 so the people that grew up on it are teens or in their early 20’s and then I’m sure there’s kids that are into the newer games cause there’s like a thousand.
Too much praise bud. This is a comedy for the fans and that is it.
So a perfect love letter to fans makes it a great film. Gotcha
@@naamaa6483Better than the Resident Evil movies where they made it all about the guy's wife.
Figured they wouldn’t like it. This is a case where the movie doesn’t need critics or any new followers to spend and watch it as it has a low budget to be something strictly for fans of the source material.
“Doesn’t need critics” is easy to say when the movie is terrible lol.
Exactly it will be fine completely on it’s own with the backing of the fans, people who never bothered to get into the story of FNAF think it’s just a game it reminds me of COD zombies great stories that people just never got into or care to get into
So the movie doesn't deserve to be good is what you're saying? I'm confused
I didn't agree with the Mario review but FNAF didn't even look good outside of set design. Especially under the Blumhouse label. Blum is known for low budgets and jump scares and some of the films are okay. This was one of the multiple bad Blumhouse films. It had too much cutting from kills and no story. If Mike can leave how is it the same concept of the game? It's just fan service but inside a bad movie. Consumers like you think fan service makes a film good and that's why they make trash films like this.
@@JackStarField47you didn’t seem to understand my comment. This movie basically got the best case scenario for itself due to it being a Blumhouse production. Low budget + decent sized fan base= can’t lose money
As a horror fan: 4/10
^since only when it’s the 4 intruders getting killed, it felt a bit scary and horror like but the rest of the movie isn’t like that unfortunately.
As a FNAF fan: 7/10
^Scout told the story the way he wanted to tell it and his creation is on full display, setting and story-wise (despite the flaws in it) and having Living Tombstone in the credits was the cherry on top.
The critic side of me: 3/10
^The story is pretty is mediocre along with its poor setup of the killer with hardly any build up and the acting is okay at best. Only stand out was Josh Hutcherson as Mike, who plays the stubborn and paranoid character pretty well, and Matthew Lillard as William who fits the killer role perfectly but unfortunately isn’t given enough screen time to make the movie more compelling and entertaining.
I walked out this movie really was just boring all around.
I thought this movie was better than what I expected. I enjoyed it for what it was. 5/10 for me.
Same, some things I enjoyed, but it clearly had a lot of problems, those dream sequences got so repetitve to me, the ending also could have been A LOT cooler. Also wish we had a night with Mike trying to survive until 6am just like in the games, but we never got that. 5/10 for me as well
The movie took a decade to make and yet feels like a James Wan 3 year project 😂
5/10 is a bad rate, if you like it then give it a high rate, just saying
@@NealGlobes ok yeah, but still if you like a movie, then giva it a good rate, if you think the movie is average the give a 5/10 or 6/10, on point in the comment did he say average
@@NealGlobes again if you like a movie, then giva it a good rate, if you think the movie is average the give a 5/10 or 6/10, on point in the comment did he say average
Should've went for an R rating, you got these huge ass machines that can cause a ton of damage and shoving bodies into animitronics could've made for some good body gore horror.
Which was not what the director wanted to go for. Because the games aren't gory either.
Lol no it won't ever be R
@@PikaLink91 Movies don't have to be like the game is.
If you actually want to show the horror of what it's like to be forced into these suits and how the wiring, springs and mechanics fuck you up.
It needs an R rating to show the blood and gore that comes with it.
Springtrab literally has human organs sticking out and it human remains around his ankles, you can do some really fucked up shit with that, with an R rating
If the movie was rated R, they wouldn't have made the money as close to the figures that the Mario Movie made.
@@The_Gamer_91No because then their target audience, kids and teens, couldn't have watched it. At least not those with responsible parents. Not everything is supposed to catter to us adults. It is a movie for teens based on a game for teens. You want gore? Watch Saw.
what pisses me off most about this is, the majority of the players that played the first 3 games are well over pg13 now. they COULD have gone super hard for those diehard fans
I had a blast seeing this indie series started by one guy making it all the way to the big screen. I thought the animatronics looked great, and the characters were interesting enough. I do think it needed to lean more into the horror and less into silly moments, and it could’ve used an extra 15-20 minutes to add more horror and expand the third act. Hopefully they take these criticisms into account for the sequels, as they seem really in tune with the fans
Why do you insult people that liked something that you didn't like? I mean "Yeah, whoever velcro your shoes in the morning have them grab a keyboard for you and type it in," is a little far.
I liked the movie. Did I think it was scary? No, I didn't. I never thought FnaF is scary, a jump scare is not scary. I like the "lore", the community around it, and seeing the characters I know and love come to live. It was a movie for fans, mostly older fans that were there for all the games. Or said differntly; this movie just wasn't for you.
I respect your opinion about the movie. For someone that isn't a fan of the FnaF-universe there is little there, so why would you rate the movie differently? Just remember please that you don't have to insult people who liked something you did not.
👏👏👏👏Yeah i like alex but that comment was a little ridiculous just for a movie
Because most people that like it r children is it an insult to call a child a child? The movie was supposed to be a r rated movie but went down to a pg-13 to cater to a broader audience and children so it’s literally the demographic of the movie .
Kinda ridiculous for GAME reviewers to be reviewing a video game movie without actually playing the games
You're entitled to an opinion. You're not entitled to have everything made for you and you alone. Also, the first game didn't have much of a story since it was just you surviving a week at Freddy's, the only story hints we got were the newspaper clippings in the east hallway.
This is a stinker I slept halfway all the kills were boring 👊👊💀
I'd rather play the game yawnnn yawn
The actor in the gold bunny suit, when the mask came off, they should have said the monster was Shaggy this whole time, and I would have gotten away with it if it wasn't for you ghost kids
I think the movie was a enjoyable watch. The movie is not scary, but if you are not a looking for a horror movie experience its an OK watch, especially, if you like the FNAF lore.
As a fan and someone who's watched all the lore videos this was perfect and everything I wanted from the movie, so many little references and I'm so glad they stayed away from making this just another gorefest, FNAF has never really had gore, only the implication of it, first time I've left the cinema smiling since Dune, definitely one for the fans :D
I liked that they got CZcamsrs like MatPat in it
Did you like how horrible the take was that they used in the movie? The shoehorned in "but hey its just a theory" line being said almost angry for some reason. Wtf was that? Cameos do not make a movie good. This movie sucked.
Fun fact, according to MatPat they wanted him to say it even more aggressive, but he was uncomfortable with the take so they decided to go with the more subtle line found in the movie. @@spraragen88
Me and my friend liked it, sorry to hear you did not feel the same.
@@TheBlueArmageddon That's so crazy. It only proves that the director is a hack and should be blacklisted.
@@spraragen88 damn dude, chill.
He didn't attack the dad because of daddy issues.
He attackes him because he thought he was a kidnapper, of which he has horrific memories of his own brother being kidnapped.
He overreacted and didn't think it through that it might be the kid's dad.
The collectable is a battery thief that follows him around.
As far as the adoption check... as the brother, he doesn't get it because he didn't adopt her.
If the aunt gets custody and adopts her, she gets a government check every month.
It's a California thing.
The rabbit reveal at the end reminded me of Ultron. "No strings on me."
I don’t think the movie was good by any means, but I can’t say I didn’t have fun watching it. Everyone in the theater was having a great time and surprisingly many weren’t children. Animatronics were badass. I just wish they leaned more towards the horror and suspense that the games brought.
I can say that. It was incredibly boring, all over the place, and not scary in the slightest.
You likely didnt play the games and dont know the lore and didnt know wtf to do on a Friday cept see some weird movie in theater. 🤷♂🤷♂🤷♂
@@donniegrobmeier2719I do agree on the scary part. I think if they had played more into the suspense it would’ve been a lot more entertaining for sure
@@donniegrobmeier2719 when has any movie ever been scary ? You're not scared when you get a jump scare, you're startled and that's essentially surprise and shock.
@@boxonothing4087I’ve been uncomfortable and creeped out watching Ari Aster films, that can relate to fear. There simply should’ve been more jump scares, not hard to do.
It kinda reminds me of puppet master - with the title villians being revealed as only tools for another character in the background.
I thought the scene with the sleepover was oddly adorable. I don’t think I’d want a sequel to this, but a tv show with more moments like this would be fun
How is it not a good five nights at freddys movie? As you said, the set and the robots were spot on, the first game doesn't really have like a story.... More like "try not to die" and that was pretty much it.... So for a movie based on the first game it was actually pretty faithful..... So how is this a bad five nights at Freddy's movie Alex? Is it a good horror movie? No that much I do agree, but its not a bad five nights at Freddy's movie.... In fact its kind of the perfect movie for this type of game.
All the die hard fans and defenders have been saying this is supposed to be based off the books than the game, theres nothing with animatronics building forts and playing with little kids in the first game, it fails in what it’s trying to do and show and that makes it bad fnaf movie… in fact a terrible one at that
Ironically whenever Scott tries to be more mainstream the fanbase would get angry.
Haven't seen it so no idea if it's any good but seeing AJ nicely slip in there their take of Twisted Metal does actually make me want to watch it. 😊
Id say it was because of how the mario movie was soo successful, same thing we are seeing here. As someone who grew up watching the fnaf games from mark, i enjoyed the movie expecting it to have not that great of a story. But to me I had a "fun" time with the movie. All this is, is that both mario and fnaf are so popular in the media, that their movies hit so hard at the box office because of their nostalgia purposes, even though both did not have the greatest of story. But i do respect everyones opinion.
Moral Lesson: Don't waste your money and time on a movie franchise you are not familiar with or don't care about because its not worth it for you.
Yeah as a fan of the games I enjoyed the references and even how the animatronics kill are accurate to the games (bonnie kills in the storage room, chica likes the kitchen with no cam and kills in the kitchen in the movie, foxy runs at his target, freddy kills in the dark). However the movie is a huge missed oppertunity. Imagine in the opener with the old night guard barricading the room, instead there was a classic night. Starts off with the night guard chilling and looking through the cameras, bonnie dissapears and he gets a little confused and flips through a few cameras to see if they are still working and sees bonnie in a different room. Then hears chica in the kitchen and that camera goes dark. He flips back to foxy and sees foxy peaking out at him through the curtain and flips to the mainstage and freddy is starting at him. He then closes the door and barricades it and you hear the classic freddy laugh echo out. Then he tries to escape and dies to foxy. That would have been an insane opening that would setup the movie so well. They focused on mike and his daughter too much and would have prefered a more survival-tense dark movie than what we got. The end with afton dragged into the room and locked in it by the animatronics is lore accurate so I can't complain about the ending. Maybe after being locked in there and surviving 5 nights he uncovers the secrets along the way he proves to the animatonics who killed them and they turn on afton and mike escapes.
If you want to send a message about wanting more and better media and having a higher standard Alex, wheres the review for Martin Scorsese's 3.5 hour movie Killers of the Flower Moon? Or Fall of the House of Usher? Where's Cobweb or Talk to Me reviews?
Is it because you guys only care about views and chasing trends and the algorithm instead of art?
Why would he be stuck there? In the games your not there after 6am.
It delivers on story, it's literally the story of the early parts of fnaf, with some changes.
Fnaf fans must see this movie, it's a great time
No
It’s a terrible time.
It's a terrible movie.
Clearly not a fnaf fan then lmao
I was stunned what a boring, trite, repetitive, slog this was, devoid not just of any scares but devoid of any suspense. The "reveal" at the end was so obvious there was no point in keeping as a "surprise." Are police ignoring the dead bodies left not just in the restaurant but other locations, they are forgotten. Just stupid. Makes Willy's Wonderland look like a masterpiece.
Mike was not Michael Afton who it should have been, Vanessa isn't a character until much later and was not related to William. William was dead long before the security gig started. There was no mention of Henry who was the co-founder. They totally screwed up these characters and I'm not sure why
This feels weird, speaking as someone who loved the movie as a die hard fan I understand why people don’t like it. It’s definitely not a movie made for the average movie goer, it’s much more intended for the fans of the games and the lore. It’s really interesting looking at it
My kids loved it..... didn't expect it to be anything more than that
Rotten Tomatoes - Super Mario - Critic Score = 59%
Box Office = $1 billion
Don't trust critics.
Rotten Tomatoes - Jurassic World Dominion - Audience Score = 77%
Box Office = $1 billion
Don't trust audiences either.
Respectfully, stop looking at this movie like an adult. Anyone leaving upset because they wanted to see Poltergeist, Saw, Carrie, or something meant to be grotesque need to remember this is PG-13, this is meant for kids. It's this youth's version of Goosebumps, or Are You Afraid of the Dark, or Tales from the Crypt.
Yknow Joe, you are always about the audience experience and make a point in mentioning "the audience cheered, there were some laughs, everyone was having a good time" etc.
I wonder if watching this opening night with a packed theater would have changed your mind, since audience participation is usually important during your reviews.
Pretty sure they would have absolutely hated all the 10 years old screaming like banshees at every single reference.
He would have given it a worse score , the kids in my theater thought this movie was the perfect time to debut their stand up comedy careeer mfs we’re literally T-postin in front of the screen when refilling drinks or popcorn or whatever it was the worst movie going experience I’ve had to date
They should do a full rated R version.
Yes and remove the boring parts with mikes real life that shit was boring
I lost my mind when they said:
"LEtS mAkE a DeN " 🤡
Like what the hell was that about...
Oooo so scary...
Unfortunately I have to disagree with the angry crew on this one. FNAF, whether intended or not, became a kids game. So it only seemed natural that it is marketed more towards children. At the end of this that’s what it is, a children’s movie. I know nothing of this, but my kids loved all of it. The lore, the characters,etc… so it did what it set out to do.
I think the reason I liked the movie is because it reminded me of Pistol Pete's Pizza when I was younger. The nostalgia of the movie is why I like it.
Lord above, man. See, this is what I mean. This is not a movie for casual movie goers. I believe that you really need to be a very dedicated fan of the games and have studied the lore in order to understand and appreciate this film. I loved it, it gave me everything I expected out of a fnaf movie. I'm giving it an 8/10.
If a movie isn’t watchable for general audiences then it fails at being a movie, full stop. An audience member shouldn’t need to know the intricacies of the lord to understand a film, that’s failure on the writers for not knowing how to integrate it into the movie. This whole “it’s for the fans” mentality is just pure cope and excuses for poor writing, ANY movie can be “just for the fans” doesn’t mean it isn’t shit and the FNAF movie is indeed, dogshit.
@salvagev6mustangforgetting812 Listen, even I fully grasp the fact on why the general audience didn't like the movie. If I were to judge this film on a casual and critical standpoint, then I would also be giving it a 3. But because I'm a fan and because I know a whole lot about this franchise, I managed to find tons of elements about the film that I really appreciated. So, does the movie fail as a film? Yes. But is it also the perfect movie for the dedicated fanbase? Also yes. Overall, I really enjoyed it. If you didn't, please go play all the games and read all the books. Then you'll understand my appreciation. Or don't, whatever, it's not my problem either way.
@@mijofalco6355this is far from a perfect movie for the dedicated fans I feel the fan base is jus so desperate for a big screen adaptation for almost a decade now that they’ll pretty much accept anything making their time waiting on it worth it(coping)
@@austinsanchez4694 Mate, I never really cared for a fnaf movie anyway. I didn't enjoy it just because it was a movie, I enjoyed it because of the lore.

36:13 i guess they don’t know who CoryxKenshin is cuz that whole Taxi scene was solely for him another CZcamsr cameo
It was just so nice seeing a film without pandering or cringe casting.
Bro it pandered for the fanboys so hard wdym?
My 10 year old and 8 year old absolutely loved the movie. As a 40 year old dad who knew nothing about the franchise, I enjoyed it. It wasn't going to be some stellar blockbuster for the discerning movie-goer, but it was definitely better than the Doom movie with Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson.
Disagree. The FPS sequence at the end with Karl Urban was better than anything in FNAF.
That Doom movie was terrible.. almost anything is better than that movie.. it's not a high bar to surpass..
I loved Mario Brothers, apparently fans of the FNAF games liked this movie. Alex getting angry about these films and saying not to support them as you will just get more is silly as people do want more. The fans did like these films and want more like them.
The fans are enjoying it purely because of the brand recognition.
@@funkrobot9762Uhhh, no? people enioy it because it is a good, faithful adaptation.
Because you guys watch movies as fans and gobble up the references/cameos and call it a good movie. I'm a fan of both franchises and can look at both and see they're mediocre movies
I don’t know why some people seem almost angry that a movie made for the fans is being enjoyed by the fans. I guess it’s because it didn’t cater to them specifically. It’s fine if some people didn’t like the movie, but that doesn’t mean they have to rub it in the faces of those who did.
Well touch luck, my friend, because guess what? I am not a fan of Fnaf. I haven't been a fan since the 4th game, where i got very bored of it, and i thought they were starting to milk it. Nowadays i am neutral towards the franchise. In fact, my brother and i went to the movies to laugh laugh at the movie for how cringe we thought it would be. @@abysmalreign2207
Nevertheless, the movie surprised me positively in a big way. It is a clear passion project, and a really faithful adaptation of the first games, which i have played. I appreciate it.
A big surprise really. Someone who isnt gonna like the movie says he didnt like the movie.
I haven’t felt this pissed after watching a film since the last Jedi, it was absolutely painful to watch, it isn’t even a fun movie I felt bored all the time. I cannot understand how the fans really loved the movie, the lore stuff from the games where really just cheap Easter eggs for the fans to say “oh look they said the thing” or “look the thing from the game shows up”but made absolutely no sense for the movie’s context.
This felt like a Disney channel “horror” movie. They really dumbed down the source material for children. Willy’s Wonderland was more of a FNAF movie than the actual movie
What exactly did they dumb down?

@@sammywilliam8156But the amount of people expecting it to be a certain thing doesn't mean the movie is wrong, it just means that many people went in with misguided expectations.

Gore alone, just for the sake of it, doesn't alone a good horror movie make. An unsettling story about ghost children wanting to add a little girl to their ranks, does.
@@PikaLink91”misguided expectations” aka expecting good movie or at least a movie that has an ip that indicates horror, the writing was sloppy, acting was questionable and there was never any tension in the movie.

Let me guess, didn’t like it and demands it be a rated R gore fest even thought the franchise is rooted in kids being the main audience.
Expecting a cinematic masterpiece in writing out of FNAF of all things is so dumb 😂
They should have made the first movie about the initial pizza pled opening up with all the original stuff, then gone through all the events with other follow up movies. The “horror” element seemed missing indeed. The visuals were impressive enough to get it an 80 with audiences.
Terrible writing, hate to see it.
