Respect it, but it's just not good

Rating: 2/10 (11 April 2019)

I don't hate this film necessarily and I respect it for being a staple in the horror franchise, but I don't really ever want to watch it again. It's just incredibly boring and I have a hard time sitting through it. It's not that it wasn't thrilling at one point, just that I've seen too many movies much better than this for it to affect me in any way a good horror film should. Even at its most basic form as a work of entertainment and sadly when I feel a movie has failed at entertaining me in the slightest I feel it's failed at doing anything. Because that's a films job, first and foremost is to be entertaining to the audience. Bad movies can be bad but can still be a joy to watch. I think film is an art but as well as it being subjective, I think it only became an art as time went on. And its first purpose still remains.
