&quot;The Blackening&quot; is a very surprising movie that I wasn&#39;t expecting to like as much as I did. With funny jokes and good pacing, it was a fun time.<br/><br/>Starting with the good, I thought all the acting was very good. Everyone gave personality to their characters. The script was hilarious. I was laughing multiple times throughout the movie and I felt the commentary was handled very well. The satirical nature the film provides I thought was really clever and if you don&#39;t get it then this movie isn&#39;t for you, but that also doesn&#39;t make the movie bad. The pacing was also pretty good, the movie never felt like it dragged and I was enjoying myself. And finally there was a lot of twists and turns that I wasn&#39;t expecting and it really caught me off guard. Overall it was a really fun reveal.<br/><br/>Now this isn&#39;t a perfect movie and while I think the comedy is great, the horror I felt was lacking a bit. I was never bored when the horror started, but it was very standard stuff. The movie could&#39;ve used some more blood and more stakes. And finally the body count is low.<br/><br/>Overall despite a somewhat standard slasher narrative, it&#39;s saved but a great comedy narrative filled with good acting, fast pacing, and some good twists.

Last time I fell asleep in a movie was when I watched titanic as a little toddler, I couldn&#39;t wait for this movie to be over, corny story and typical black jokes it&#39;s clear the good reviews are ether fake for the black community and stuff, and if they like this movie for real their lying to themselves. Waste of time, money, I wanted a refund but I forgot, I didn&#39;t wanna watch this movie anyway my wife did, comedy is dead, I&#39;ll rather watch a Tom Arnold documentary than this , I don&#39;t care what anyone thinks it was pure bull if I was to make a Time Machine to unwatch the blackening I would do it in a heartbeat.

An amateur cast with cheap performances, boring direction and weak improvised dialogues. This film had that good ol&#39; slasher vibes with secluded location, a mysterious cabin and the whole gist, but unfortunately the overall experience was disappointing.<br/><br/>An amateur cast with cheap performances, boring direction and weak improvised dialogues.
