Get Away

One of those that requires patience, and ends up being so worth it. I went in blind, following Nick Frost and Aisling Bea. I love both of them so the comedy worked for me. The plot twists and exposition 'decapitated' me, it risks falling flat on its face several times but I'm so glad it did. I love the Scandinavian lore, it reminded me of 'Midsommar'...till it didn't. The production was amazing, and the insane gore made me spin so silly. One of those you have to tiptoe around because a lot depends on a few significant plot points. Nick Frost writing this makes so much sense and Shudder is only getting better.

This movie is insanely slow and takes way too long to get going. The third act is entertaining but not enough to make the movie enjoyable.

Was tempted to put meh, but the middle pushed it up a bit. It has aspirations to be slasher versions of Shaun of the dead (no where near as good) but the comedy horror with Frost brings something to the table and I really like Aisling Bea in most things.

Not the worst movie, but definitely a bit odd and unexpected. The first half had me on edge and asking myself where the “funny” was at in what I saw as a slow burn horror film, but the second half took me to a whole other movie plot. Maybe a 4 or 5/10

This was definitely a movie that exists adjacent to the horror genre. Is played incredibly satirical until it jumps its own shark during a very drawn out twist, it makes it funny but beyond that there’s a lot missing from the simple plot. At one point a character randomly throws out that they’re using a sort of social media for serial killers and then they never elaborate on it and honestly that really pissed me off. Nick Frost is always funny and for a simple comedy this wasn’t horrible but beyond that not much here. 2.5/5

wtf 😂😂
