4 complaints....Loved the rest of the film (no spoilers)


1) Saw too much MM without the mask.
2) Wanted it to be longer. (That's what she said...)
3) The bit with Mike's new doc was ridiculous.
4) That little black kid should've been in it more. Hell, give that kid his own movie.

I think MM without mask was fine, but I agree about it being a bit longer!

Black kid was great!

But where I totally agree with you was the new doc. Didn't kill the movie for me, but was totally unnecessary save one thing (which I won't spoil). Still, with how the franchise has handled the one positive in the past, it could have been done much better and more simply!

1) I didn't mind that. I thought it was brave for them to do that. Michael was also unmasked in H1 and H5.
2) Yeah, I wanted there to be more screen time and build up for the friends of Laurie's grand daughter.
3) I want to say that might've been a reference to Dr. Wynn from H6. A doctor looking out for Michael.
4) Everyone is praising the black kid haha; he was pretty funny.

The thing was, his previous unmaskings didn't tell us much. This one, in my opinion, showed his mortality...he had lost his hair, he had a scraggly beard and some scars. This was the first time his being maskless told us that he was still aging normally and was getting old...like he wasn't superhuman evil and immune to the normal stuff age does to a man...of course he was still strong as an ox, but this was the first time it looked like Michael would eventually die of old age if he stayed locked up.
