What a disappointing end to the Halloween reboot trilogy. _Halloween Kills_ was so unbelievably good that I was excited to see what's next, it turns out that this film is vastly different. I'm aware that the filmmakers wanted to try different approach with this final entry but I wasn't expecting this messy. It's more of a drama, villain origin story, dark romance with some slashing. Definitely not an easy task to pull this off, but you can clearly see the struggle. The focus shifts on this new kid's descent into darkness which largely feels underdeveloped and hollow, with some super corny romance thrown in, cornier than people chanting 'evil dies tonight'. I find it super weird and get so frustrated because of how the kid got the main focus when this film is supposed to finish Laurie and Michael story which started a long time ago. Also, the romance part feels forced, downright cringy and unnecessary. Like seriously, who thought that it was a good idea?! The slashing is brutal and fun, at least, although you won't see the incredibly menacing Michael Myers like in the previous film. It honestly makes me appreciate _Halloween Kills_ more since that one is the most 'slasher' out of 3.

1/10
Me After watching this shit once:
I found a Liquor store afterwards...
"And Drank It".

This abomination is not just the absolute worst Halloween movie ever it's the worst Horror movie of 2022 by far, and their has been some Garbage.
This piece of crap makes
Rob zombies Halloween 2 remake watchable it's that bad. This was a pathetic piss-poor disappointment that was a spit in the face to all the fans. They single handedly buried the 44yr legacy in 1 fell swoop.
Absolutely God Awful.
"What an Insult"
And no matter what terrible movies come out in the future now this utter Garbage will be the new measuring stick for
how bad something can actually be.
The only legacy left behind for this
franchise is that the last
movie was the
worst in cinematic history
:poop:Congratufuc@inglations:poop:

This piece of shit flips
the bird:middle_finger:
To all the fans of this once great franchise.

YOU ARE THE WEAKEST LINK...GOOD RIDDANCE.

Abysmal and Shambolic
and to try and justify this utter piece of shit as a Michael Myers movie is false advertisement and fraud.
A complete Insult
To the legacy and the fans
And one big gigantic middle finger to anybody
That has had the unfortunate experience in watching this crap-fest.

Fcuking Disgraceful and every single person involved in the making of this bollocks should be ashamed of themselves and never ever be allowed to work on another movie ever again.

COMPLETE AND UTTER NONSENSE
THAT MADE NO SENSE.
THIS SHIT SHOW SHOULD
HAVE NEVER SEEN THE LIGHT
OF DAY.
"THE WORST MOVIE EVER MADE"
(why: easy this was not a
Halloween movie at all,
fcuk sake it was barely a movie,
I tell you what it was:
A big steaming pile of Shit.

X FINAL THOUGHT
Verdict: Halloween Ends
Sucks and Sucks bad
and is pretty much Unwatchable.

I had so much expectations going into this, with reason because this is promised as the closing chapter for Michael and Laurie. It does promise on that and gives us an end but that's about it. It doesn't offer much compared to the previous two entries in terms of centering on Michael and Laurie. We instead focus on this new character who's now the main character. What a confusing and bizarre direction for a final installment. The unnecessary romance subplot and cringe one liners didn't help either. It feels erratic, disjointed and is victim to bad writing. I found myself questionning Laurie's state of mind throughout it's like we don't know the character anymore which is weird after so many films. They should of focused on that instead! And answering a few questions about the "origin of evil", giving an explanation for the existence of the supernatural being that is Michael Myers - we get none of that!

What I liked about it is that it's very unpredictable they did good on that. At no point in the story did I predict what was going to happen (except for the stuff in the trailers, that's bad marketing!). The opening was amazing and made the movie quite promising. The third act is wild and you sure get a payout I was on the edge of my seat but whatever comes after is questionnable.

Overall this is a very lackluster ending to the *Halloween* trilogy and i'm baffled at the writing decisions. It's unsatisfying and I don't feel like i've been given a closure. At least we know why this was dumped on streaming day one.

This is atrocious. How this has the Halloween name on it is beyond me. Why are these 30 years olds acting like edgy, emo 15 year olds in an MCR music video? Why is Allyson so willing to go along with all this, and why is she so stupid compared to how she has acted in previous movies? Why does it feel like no one gives a shit and wants nothing to do with this production of this beloved franchise? The root message here about evil being born or created is an interesting one, but the implementation is some of the most amateur, hamfisted dialogue and storytelling I've ever seen, especially in a high profile franchise film like Halloween.

I was one of the few people that gave Halloween Kills the benefit of the doubt. I enjoyed it's metaphor-lead plot about mob mentality and the instigators being no better than the original perpetrator; but I felt it had middle movie syndrome that comes with being a planned trilogy. It couldn't push far enough because the finale still needs to be made so it just has to awkwardly tread water. Comparatively now to Ends, it appears they were just stalling for time. They had nothing left in the tank and were simply delaying the inevitable for this creatively bankrupt franchise.

Does that mean there is nothing of merit here? Not quite. The intro babysitting scene is very good and really sets your expectations far too high for the rest of the movie, and the compilation of kills throughout the last half of the movie are still decent enough for pure slasher fans. There is equally enough throwback visuals and easter eggs that will either be fun or annoying dependant on your tolerance for nostalgia bait and audience winks.

I'm just glad it's finally over, which I guess is the worst thing to say about a revival trilogy of a beloved franchise. [spoiler] Almost poetically, Mike Myers met his end just like this franchise. Slowly being chopped, cut and impaled until it didn't represent itself anymore, bleeding out slowly before being dramatically crushed before our eyes. [/spoiler]

Just got back from seeing this, I'll get right to it, Halloween does indeed end the Michael and Laurie Strode Arc once and for all and very fittingly at the end. However [spoiler] The main prob with this one is, Micahel must have been hanging with Jason Voorhees or Freddy Kruger Planning their next Vs movie, so they decided to get a random guy (Corey Cunningham) and make him the main killer for pretty much 90% of the movie, all while wearing Michael's mask. [/spoiler]

[spoiler] Now I don't know about you but when I walk into a cinema to see Michael Myers do his thing and end an epic saga, I don't expect to see someone essentially standing in doing the killing as it were (when killing actually starts) for the majority of screen time. To cap it off, they build up Corey's character of a killer babysitter and then do nothing with him, just kill him off in the end, so I have been sitting there for over an hour now waiting for Michael watching this play out and it doesn't go anywhere. Now if they had built this up for Corey to be the new Michael (well I would have still questioned it) but it would have made sense whey there was all this padding and filler until Michael stepped into frame, especially if you watch previous 2 before which I did, where Michael kills 12 Firemen in just once scene alone, this should have been an epic Halloween battle a crescendo of a finale but for majority its pretty hollow.. [/spoiler]

Honestly you can literally skip the first hour, hour and a half and then splice the rest onto the end of Halloween kills and bam you got your ending. [spoiler] The epic finale of Michael vs Laurie didn't even take that long, and even longer for them to get face to face. [/spoiler]

[spoiler] Also Michael actually getting killed was kinda weird, being this iconic indestructible character actually getting killed for once, but yea it did its thing for the end of this story, he'll be back in a new iteration I have no doubt (As long as they stick with just him) [/spoiler]

For the most part watch Halloween 2018, Halloween Kills 2021 and then last 45 mins of this one and you got your trilogy basically.
