Uhh move over Loomis there’s a new sheriff in town. A sequel that strips away tons of nonsense lore and instead injects it with a super off putting teenager who looks like Rocky Dennis was granted a wish to look like one of us but a genie can’t grant miracles.

Inept rehash with no tension, no rhythm, no surprises and no point. Poorly written, poorly shot and poorly edited. That critics seem to have largely been favourably disposed is incomprehensible: is it because they have an idea in their heads that Green is a good filmmaker, or because they perceive the film as somehow feminist, or because Jamie Lee Curtis is in it, or for some other, more obscure reason? In any case: avoid.

I really liked this. Disclaimer: I had only seen the original 1978 film before this, so maybe my review won't say much to you die-hards. Green doesn't capture the atmosphere that Carpenter did, but I still found some of the camera work to be really well done and the story is a nice, fresh take on the genre. Curtis was quite good, as was some of the supporting cast. I also like that this isn't over the top like a lot of other slasher movie sequels seem to be. Very good.

It's certainly not perfect; it wouldn't be a Halloween sequel if it was. The first half wastes too much time on characters and situations that ultimately don't matter much. But once everything clicks into place and we're off to the races, DAMN. It updates the story, but not in that winking pomo-horror way we're sick of, just reinstates Michael as The Shape and lets Laurie grow from the Final Girl to the Original HBIC. Not perfect, but a perfect ending. The lunatic is on the fucking grass.

I wish I was cool enough (or is it old enough? I don't know how nostalgia works anymore) to have seen Halloween in the theater, but I will say, when I first saw Trading Places, I just knew that someday Jaime Lee Curtis was going to be a generation's Charles Bronson.

Interesting one, this. I've only seen the original film and the mad Halloween III, so perhaps that explained why the mythology, in particular the mask, felt a bit overstated or shoehorned in to me. Once it gets going, though, it is quite nasty and entertaining, with a nice old-school slasher feel. It does feel a wee bit disjointed at times, but is largely successful. Well worth a look.

Of the three biggest slasher series, "Halloween" has always been my least favorite, the villain has never been anything other than just evil, a horribly mundane backstory for a mass murderer. So imagine my surprise to see not only Jamie Lee Curtis' return, but the best installment of Michael Meyers in forty years, I shit you not. If your a fan of slashers or "Halloween" this is a must watch.

Despite a mid-film twist that seems highly implausible & a decision to disregard what occurred in Halloween 2 (had they kept it, Laurie's certainty that she & her family are in danger makes a lot more sense), this hits all its marks. It follows the checklist that hardcore slasher fans demand while giving the rest of us legitimate characters & relationships we can invest in in between murders so we can give a damn whether they die or not. It also delivers on a showdown we've waited 40 years for.

Seeing Jamie Lee back in the role felt so refreshing. It's really exciting to see the return of characters like Laurie and Michael back on the big screen, and now that they're back they didn't disappoint. Green directs some super fun kills and intense sequences, making this feel like one of the most brutal Halloween movies. It's a great watch and very fun. It has flaws, including some awkward humor, but still awesome.

Being a huge fan of older horror franchises, I really wanted to like this, I did. This is such a mixed bag for me. A lot of the cinematography is great, and well...Michael is great. After that...I think this movie is pointless. Giving the ending, it seems it's repeating past franchise's mistakes, yet this is suppose to retcon past mistakes. Along with questional character choices, sub plots not fully developed, and mismarketed trailers, I can say I was really disappointed.

My biggest problem is how it was wrote The audience is supposed to forget all the other films happened and now Michael suddenly escapes 40 years later because someone holds his mask and asks him to speak W/T/F/?... At the end of the day it boils down to another teen horror flick that isn't very good

Some mildly interesting ideas & slick craft make it surprisingly watchable but really fails to carry through in any substantial way. Attempts to tie the 70s atmosphere with a bloodier modern slasher don't quite work & undermine any coherent tone. Arranged in a disjointed & contrived way that actually makes it quite funny while maintaining a sufficient veneer of horror. They got Myers right which is really what holds up the actual characters (a very uneven bunch) & this whole messy holiday romp.

Laurie Strode bears the weight of 40 years of trauma, and I think that this film illustrates that with quiet grace. Its final images, suggestive of fear and violence rooted in generations and generations of human history, prove surprisingly haunting.

Once Michael gets into the thick of stalking and killing again the movie is for half an hour or so arguably the most enjoyable pure slasher film in years. Loved the tracking shot. What the movie does plot-wise outside of that I can take some issue with here and there (though done with more artistry, much of the film is, like all slasher films, stupid, including the “twist”), although I thought the new granddaughter character made for a solid “final girl.”

The Halloween series is the most convoluted series to keep track of, so it's nice that this film just resets as a sequel to the first. The cult and druid stuff from 5&6 is now long forgotten, never to be seen again. Love watching a senior-aged Michael laying waste to everyone.

The best Halloween entry yet. The first half drags the second half down; in particular, the first half hour could easily be cut to improve the experience. The latter half's pretty decent, however. The movie's humour sometimes undercuts the tension, unfortunately, and its themes are muddled. If Laurie Strode had decided to sacrifice herself and her whole family in order to kill Michael Myers, that would have elevated this a lot but the people involved didn't have the guts.

I really enjoyed this. While I acknowledge that it isn't on the same atmospheric level as the original, and Laurie is a remarkably poor decision-maker for someone who's been planning this out for 40 years, I just had fun with it. It felt very authentic to the original, the tropes didn't feel as cumbersome as they can sometimes feel in horror movies, I didn't "call" the turn with the doctor's character so that was impactful, and overall this was more than sufficient for me for a Halloween movie.

There'sa lot to be said about human interactions with evil/past trauma.what's the big deal about a man with a knife echoes through the whole of Laurie's character and how our present culture treats women's trauma. How people will try to make something like Michael into a thing to try to be understood as if you could prevent evil from entering your world if you study it enough when the real answer seems to be confronting it and within that confronting what your trauma means.

She came prepared. She was told to be quiet, to stop being hysterical. She didn't. She sacrificed her youth, her happiness and more. Just so evil could burn. Her preparation is what's winning her this fight. Hillary won! Even if the evil keeps breathing. She won! Jerks and entitled nerds (I'm next in line!) won't have sex tonight!

Surprisingly well done. There are some scenes where it gets too cute, yes. Yet this is not just a lame tribute but an actual update to the original movie which, let's be honest, has not aged well. Decent acting, decent directing, fun to watch (especially the last act).

Overhyped sequel ignores every other Halloween sequel despite being inferior to several of them as well as the Zombie remakes too. It's a poorly written rhythmless bore that has close to zero suspense and no real atmosphere. Jamie Lee Curtis is OK, but she really has nothing to work with, and the family drama is awfully contrived. That it has drawn so many favourable comparisons to Carpenter's original merely confirms my suspicion that his classic remains insufficiently appreciated (formally).

A perfectly fine movie, but the reviews seemed to give it a lot of credit just for not being a piece of shit like the last 9 versions. Yes, it's a welcome change that they discarded 30 years of exceedingly more ludicrous canon. But the thrills and atmosphere don't begin to rival the original. There is character drama, but it's pretty meaningless. Entertaining but not great.

It's not groundbreaking or absolutely WOW but it's immensely entertaining. I might not be looking for another Halloween (because this one revisits it all so neatly I can't imagine we'd be so lucky twice) but I would love to see Green and McBride team up for another horror film, something entirely of their own creation perhaps. I slightly boost its rsting simply for a Michael Myers bursts from the shadows jumpscare that got me and was so well done I had to rewind and see it again

It is entertaining horror fodder that definitely gave me the impression it would do more to change the game and create a new Halloween franchise. Curtis steps back into the role well and this is a version of Laurie that does create more tension. The third act fell flat and delivered us the typical slasher final confrontation where it all goes according to plan. The biggest downfall is major pacing issues, the film takes about 45 minutes to get going and continues at a relentless pace.

It's not a bad movie by any stretch, but it's only an okay one. It plays things fairly safe, and although it seemed to have a lot of good ideas, they just weren't executed all that well. Many, many references and allusions that fans will pick up on. Curtis was great, but I didn't think they really did enough with her character. Not scary, just 2 or 3 decent moments of suspense. It takes a while to get going, and then just didn't thrill me enough when it did.

Near the end it finally turns up the gas and brings the film to a heat, but most of the runtime feels surprisingly tepid. I think it's because, unlike the best horrors, where the shots seethe in oppressiveness and you feel the full weight of Hell about to come crashing down, there's none of that here. It's only after some of the kills sink in that you start to know this Myers is a menace. But the depictions of Strode's mental illness - retconning some actual consequence - works beautifully.

Pretty good. There are a few lines of dialogue that are too on the nose and the script sets some things up that don't end up going anywhere, like the cowboy detective or whatever he was who has exactly zero relevance to the plot. Nice references to things like Halloween 3, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Repo Man. Well shot, and great use of the iconic music as well as new score. Not at all scary, but a ton of fun. In retrospect there is more that doesn't work but the overall package is enjoyable

It's good but Carpenter understood atmosphere in a way that Green doesn't. The OG was only occasionally creepy but still excited because of that, this wasn't nearly as foreboding and ominous as I expected it to be. Myers is still compelling because he is just evil and trying to understand him is a waste of time. The beginning was intense but then all of it up until he gets out and starts killing is average. Feels a little like it's going through the motions; unnecessary but still entertaining.

The only thing making me hesitate in calling this a great slasher/thriller is the handful of characters/threads that feel forgotten about. It’s maturely paced and visualized - the Loomis figure has more of an active role than even the original. The set pieces are almost all brilliant - fluidly visual and creative. The DGG touches are here again - observe the subtly humanist interaction between a kid and his babysitter. Stuff like this sets his films apart from the trite and forgettable.

It's a worthy sequel with an extraordinary final act and a bit of predictability. David Gordon Green made all the easy moves, but still delivered.

There is a LOT going on in this movie, and some of it doesn't work. To the filmmakers' credit, though, enough of it really *does* work to make it the best of the Halloween sequels to date.

Very nice way to re-energize the franchise. Green's direction is solid and muted -- it doesn't get in the way, in other words, which I worried might be the case. In fact, the film feels like an endearing tribute to the franchise as a whole, even if it wipes the slate clean from '81 and after. Michael Myers is terrifying again, and that's probably all fans wanted, but there's thoughtful character work and terrific music to appreciate as well.

All in all it's an alright film, but honestly they just phoned it in. Halloween 'greatest hits', if you will. We've seen it all before and done better. If you get the chance to make a Halloween film with a good budget to boot, make it f-cking unforgettable. I know that I don't need to see this one again, I'm let down

If you have to make a completely arbitrary (and ultimately unnecessary) sequel, you couldn't ask for better than this - Green does an admirable job combining a tribute to Carpenter's legendary classic while adding a few stylish touches of his own; the first acts are a little plodding, but the final third, where Curtis (in an excellent return to form) prepares for the final showdown, is almost unbearably tense (shades of SILENCE OF THE LAMBS) and a terrific horror set piece.

Excellent horror movie. It's perfectly creepy, the set ups are great and Curtis at points rivals Ripley with being the most badass woman in movies. Surprisingly the story is pretty grounded for being the 11th in the series and the fourth new timeline, which helps keep Micheal scary. Micheal's "trick or treat" kill fest scene feels straight from the original movies. The only real issue is that the movie kind of ends. Like Jamie Lee does her thing and then its done. Needed like 10 more minutes.

A lot of it is actually pretty cool. For the most part it's quite tense, the kills are savage and I liked how some crucial shots were framed, it really added to the atmosphere. Frankly it's good to have Michael Myers and Laurie Strode (a great Jamie Lee Curtis) back on the screen. Also, her having prepped up to confront him again was a promising idea. Basically the main disappointment is the finale, especially since the plan Laurie had literally 40 years to come up with turns out pretty moronic.

Rewatch kind of killed this for me. Well, not exactly killed, but left me at least underwhelmed. Gordon Green tries to replicate some of the original's brilliant spatial, breathing, slow-paced horror, but mostly comes out with a strange mix of slasher and humor. Also, the whole thing about Strode family facing their trauma all together -- daughter created on paranoia and so on -- hits home maybe a bit too late, despite the strong emotions of that dinner scene. Not bad, but also not good at all.

"Terminator 2" meets "Panic Room". I got serious Sarah Connor vibes. I'm not a horror fan (horror comedy is great, but regular horror bores me), and only saw the original recently, and wasn't impressed. I wasn't of this either. Just a dude slowly walking around, not talking at all, and chopping people up. I guess they were going for a twist on the "Psycho" shower scene with its own bathroom scene. "On the shitter, no one can hear you scream." I don't know.

I'm no fan of the original, and this one suffers some of the same faults (disposable characters, barely even a minute of worthwhile scares, JLC is hard to look at), but it's the tone of this that is both off-putting and appealing -- there's plenty of jokey jokes, but there's also awkward moments of unintentional humour. Halloween just doesn't realise how funny it is, which makes it maybe worth a one-time watch, but it's still an unaware and soullessly assembled piece of work.

This is more or less like the Superman Returns of the Halloween series. Let's look at a comment from that film: "Tries so hard to be like the '78 version, but fails to recapture the charm or fun. The cast, shackled by emulation though it was, performed solidly... Overall though, repetitive nick of time action scenes (murder scenes in this case) don't generate enough excitement to make up for too many stilted conversations full of repressed emotions."

I would say this movie wrote itself and it's not *that* hard of a movie to make watchable... then I recall all the other attempts that include Michael Myers since '78 .

Halloween, John Carpenter'ın yönettiği 1978 yapımı filmden 40 sene sonrasını anlatıyor olsa bile hikaye daha ilk günkü gibi tazeliğini muhafaza edebilmiş. Yönetmen, David Gordon Green'ın de bir önceki filmi revize edip filmin üstüne yeni ve modern öğeler katmasıyla birlikte ortaya tek solukta izlenebilen, çok güzel bir iş çıkmış. Geriyor, hissettiriyor ve öldürüyor!

Easily the best Halloween sequel (although I kinda liked 2 and H20), with surprisingly competent directing and writing. Some scenes are unpredictable, it (usually) avoids gore in favor of simple/offscreen kills, and it has some shots that make nice parallels to the original (based on my memory anyways).

Beautifully shot, but not really a horror movie.

Probably went in with a bit too high of expectations, but this was just kind of meh. The younger actors are particularly awful IMO and there are some really stupid lines in here. Plotwise this doesn't seem like anything we haven't seen before, but it picks up a little steam near the end. Doesn't hold a candle to the original IMO, and I'd even rather watch the Michael Myers-less Halloween III over this.

An indiscriminate killer makes an exception that I can't really understand. It really drives home how the wonderfully simple original was in fact so wonderfully simple because of its lack of any of the contrived plot points we get here.

I know this wasn't a remake, but this was the remakiest non-remake that wasn't a remake.

Halloween is very stylistically similar to the original film. Almost to a fault. Aside from some nice performance work and a strong beginning. This reboot fails to bring anything new to the franchise and unfortunately comes to an end with a lull. Rather than a bang. Also I personally do not approve of eliminating the family connection between Michael and Laurie. That change eliminated most of my investment in a new line of films.
