Review of Old (2021) by Bshu89 — 13 Aug 2021
Old is, I think, the 2nd film that we have gotten from the famed director M. Night Shyamalan that harkens back to his old glory. First, being The Visit. And that’s no knock on Split and I haven’t seen Glass yet.
Old is a very enjoyable movie. The premise is unique, but often gets ahead of itself. Spoken dialogue is very choppy and unrealistic. Most of the speaking parts are spoken exposition which at times is very boring. But I’d be lying if I didn’t say I enjoyed the journey.
It’s far from perfect. It’s no Signs or The Sixth Sense, but for anyone clamoring for some new M. Night, I definitely think it’s worth the price of admission - and more importantly, your time.
Just know it’s clunky. It’s far from perfect. And I think what ruins the movie most is M. Night’s need to re-create his former glory.
