This was pretty unwatchable for me. Saw it in a theater. Even on a big screen in a dark theater, the big CGI finale was so blurry and messy and low-budget that it was hard to tell who was doing what at any given time and what was going on. But even before the mess of a climax, the whole story was filled with 2-dimensional characters and bad dialogue. As a horror movie buff and a lifelong comic fan, it really didn't do a satisfying job in either category. There were a few jump scares but the movie didn't really create an atmosphere of tension at all. The characters had barely any lines to characterize them, other than the main 2 characters. I will applaud the movie for giving us a rarely-depicted example of young queer love, but I just wish it were in a better movie. It's a shame they wasted casting Anna Taylor-Joy as Illyana in this, because she is a great actress and played the role well despite a pretty terrible script. I can only hope they pull her into the MCU and reboot the character to give her another shot at it.

The best comedy on TV right now. It's about the complexity of being a "good" person, but you'd never know that because it just seems like a loosely premised laugh factory at times. But the deeper meaning is there and it makes the show shine.
