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.
