I did wonder if I could stomach a further two hours of pulsating thighs and thrashing jockstraps after the last one, but, oddly, it turns out I absolutely could.
Thanks for giving my kid nightmares! Could the writers of this movie ever have MET a 5-year old girl? Scene after scene was so scary and intense. I was in a theater full of screaming, terrified children. About half had to leave! We should have left, but my near-six year old had been counting down the days until the opening for months, so she would not give in! We love the TV show, but this was horrible! Evil, evil characters enter in the first five minutes and the plot never gets a breather of humor or kindness for about the next hour. The major theme was “grow up, don’t be cute” exactly the opposite of was we came to see. What a disappointment. I feel like the writers should get up at 3am to console my child...
Like many viewers of this movie, I walked into the theater hoping for something new. Something different. Something crazy and unexpected. Unfortunately, this was not the case. Ancient Ones is just one more film about fork-wielding, dragon-riding cabbage people to add to the already mountainous pile. Cliche and, just like all the others, incredibly boring. I genuinely wonder when Hollywood will finally stop beating this dead horse of a genre and move on to something fresh.
