Nice Idea For a Film...


Shame it wasn't executed very well.

Too silly to be scary, too serious to be funny. They needed to pick a tone and stick with it. I think it would have worked better as a comedy. But they almost immediately kill the comedic character then take this shit seriously.

Could have been a fun romp, maybe involving a few runs through the movie before restarting again (which is implied at the beginning when they see the camper van arrive three times but they don't utilise the reset after that).

Nice premise, but it ended up being slightly dull

hard disagree!
i think it's a perfect blend of dopeyness and heart. it didn't make me cry like a 5 year old who'd dropped his ice cream or anything, but it has a nice little emotional kick.

and i think it's tons of fun. silly and making fun of tropes without being up its own arse about it.
