Happy Death Day

enjoyed it! (: super exciting & stylish film, tho obviously repetitive. pretty much a blueprint of the type of lighthearted scary movies i like. i used to hate the idea of slasher comedies until i found ones like this, and now i have many favorites like scary movie, tuck & dale.

One of my favorite horror movies. It combines horror and humor so well!

Jessica Rothe is perfect for this film. She has the right amount of comedy but will make a scene have a deep meaning with her acting. Rothe can make you hate her for one minute and then like her the next. I ship carter and tree sue me. 5/5 stars.

Rated: 7.0/10

I queued this to see if a Groundhog Day slasher gimmick actually works. I love this; a clever time-loop puzzle with a surprisingly heartfelt redemption arc.

The Director's Eye (What Worked):
• Rothe shines, shifting from an unlikable mean girl to a rootable hero.
• The baby mask gives the killer a distinct, creepy personality.
• Landon keeps it fresh; each death is a clue, not just gory spectacle.

The Friction (What Didn't Click for Me):
• The PG-13 rating hurts; kills feel bloodless as it cuts away too fast.
• The motive reveal relies on a weak exposition dump at the finish line.

The Verdict:
I love it. Watch for a clever twist. Skip if you need hardcore horror.

It’s very cheesy and corny, but it’s definitely entertaining.

7/10
