Children of the Corn, 1984 – ★★
It’s hard to believe that this largely uneventful film managed to spawn over 10 sequels. The premise is thin, and there’s not much here to warrant such a long-lasting franchise.

This film ended up being a lot more fun than I expected, surpassing its initial premise. It strikes the right balance between entertainment and absurdity, making for an unexpectedly enjoyable watch.
The performances were solid, but the film took its time getting to the main point, making it feel a bit drawn out. A quicker pace could have made the story more engaging overall.
This film still has its fun moments, but it misses the mark by not fully taking advantage of the movie-within-a-movie concept. The jokes almost all fall flat.
Dupieux delivers another mind-bending film, but the story doesn’t quite match the brilliance of the technically impressive tracking shots. While visually captivating, the narrative feels lacking in comparison.
The movie left me feeling confused, as it never fully explained what was happening. Its ambiguity made it difficult to stay engaged with the story.
This film is yet another pandemic production that would have been more effective as a short, rather than stretching its thin plot to fill 90 minutes. The limited storyline struggles to maintain interest over the extended runtime.
The film had an interesting concept but never quite reached its full potential, leaving me wanting more. While it had moments of promise, it ultimately fell short of delivering a satisfying experience.
There’s not much substance beneath the surface. Its slow pace and lack of activity make it hard to stay invested despite the beautiful scenery.
Two films into the series, and the plot is still a complete mystery, leaving me utterly confused. It’s frustrating to watch without any sense of direction or clarity.
This film suffers from the common pitfall of fan-made projects, with subpar acting that undermines its potential.
The movie is decent overall, but the MMA fighting scenes lack the cinematic flair needed to make them truly engaging on screen. While exciting in a live setting, they don’t translate as well to film.
This movie stands out as one of the laziest and most boring experiences I’ve had in a while. The ending takes the cake for being completely nonsensical and utterly disappointing.
The movie starts off strong with a fun setup and intriguing characters, leading to a satisfying dark ending. However, it loses its direction in the middle, which dampens the overall impact.
This film ranks as one of the most disturbing I’ve ever watched, keeping me on edge the entire time. The thrill of guessing when everything would unravel added to the twisted fun.
