Highly overrated

Rating: 3/10 (12 June 2019)

Halloween is all style and no substance, with very little meat on its bones. The sophistication of the story is at a teenage level. I guess You have to be at that age group, or have the mentality of a teenager, to actually enjoy a film like this. However, It is not just the childish, boring and highly predictable plot that hurts the movie. We also have very little character development and the acting is laughingly bad. In a film like this, if you have no investment in any of the characters and the antagonist has the charisma of a doorknob, you start loosing interest fast. When Michael starts his killing spree, you just want him to get it over as soon as possible. No amount of style can save a film with these many problems.
