The Black Phone - 2022

Awesome Movie. It's depicted as a horror film but it was more of a supernatural suspense thriller, with a little horror mixed in. Madeline who plays "Gwen" the sister is great. Within in the first 30 minutes you immediately bond with the main characters and route for both to make it through this nightmare.

I’m not a horror movie person. I mean, I like them, but they’re not my favorite. However this movie, hands down, is one of the absolute best movies I’ve ever seen. The cinematography, the acting, the dialogue, backdrops, clothes, etc. it was all executed so well. This movie is A+.

It did a great job in setting a creepy tone & making you feel uneasy from start to finish. It definitely kept me on edge. It’s not a typical horror movie littered with jump scares. All of the actors did a phenomenal job especially Ethan Hawkes performance. From the atmosphere, to the acting, storyline/script, visuals, it was all great. It did a great job at making me feel like I was in that decade as well. Beautifully shot.

this movie was absolutely a 10/10 movie!! it was so gooood, creepy, and touching at the same time. The scenes with the phone calls every kid telling him how to escape where they had failed was so touching. The fight practice scene with robin was so cool and it had 3-4 jumpscares i screamed at 2 jumpscares even tho i knew it comes.

the kid actors in this are incredibly - some of the best acting I've seen from child actors in a long time. Incredible movie. Drags a bit in the middle but the ending is great.

To begin, this is a beautiful masterpiece of a movie, great tension in scenes, great characters, great music, and the best of all, Finn's and Gwen's relationship with the each other. I would suggest this movie for any horror-mystery movie watcher. Worth my time...

Ethan Hawke and the child actors really raised the film to a higher level, especially the sister knocked it out of the park. One point in the film I really didn't know whether she was getting beat up for real by her dad or whether it was acting, because that was some of the most realistic crying I have ever seen.

ok this movie was cool as f*$k. Scary, realistic, and just enough creepiness to keep you on the edge of your seat with a happy ending. Same era I grew up in so LOVED the music and I'm assuming that was Ethan Hawks behind that creepy ass mask? I never would have known.
