The Empty Man (2020)

Can't believe i took the family to the movies to support the cinema in these COVID-19 times to sit through over 2 hours of this mess to be feeling like an empty man and empty wallet. 😞😞 don't know what this movie was trying to be because it ain't no horror.

Fmovies: This movie was incredibly boring. The first 20 minutes could've been left out entirely and you wouldn't have missed a thing. The lead actor was solid and did everything he could to save this meandering mess but with so little to work with he was empty. It was so mundane, the viewer waits and waits and waits for something exciting or remotely scary to happen and we get nothing. I'd rather watch another final destination or scream or we know what you did last summer flick than suffer through this garbage. Hollywood is dying and this is solid proof as to why !

The sound effects are spot on, the concept of the movie Is decent but the execution is pretty bad. Unnecessary long movie , scenes are not connected well enough one another.

The Empty Man fmovies. This movie is one of those movies that just drags on and on for no good reason. While the beginning wasn't terrible the movie just continuously got worse. And the ending was just awfully confusing and made no sense.

I was hesitant about this movie, at the time it was a 7 out of 10 (89 reviews) and I figured maybe it was secretly an awesome movie and the trailer ruined its chances... Nope. I got tired of waiting and just went to see it so here's my thoughts. This was intended for the type of movie goer that likes a film that tries to make you think... It's not bad, but it's not good either. The opening to the movie is fantastic, most people complain about how long it is and who cares. Then, when the movie really starts going it's kind of cool, but it misses the mark for all the ideas and mystery it creates only for it it feel like it was created just to extend the movies run time. The first hour, is alright. It felt like I was watching a true crime drama, so it wasn't too bad. There's a scene in a sauna, totally gnarly and then you don't get anymore after that. It made me curious to see where it was all leading up to and eventually it just kind of falls apart near the end. The movie felt like it was trying to be the next midsommar or Hereditary with the big reveal at the end and I think there was a chance to make it so, but it was done so awfully in terms of what they didn't do. They needed more instances to call back to make it everything have a bigger impact, but the two small scenes you get a call back to is just disappointing. People say the movie doesn't make sense, it makes sense. Without spoilers, the problem is the main character has a realization and suddenly the last 2 hours never mattered. This movie isn't worth your time, It's just bland and you're better off saving your money and watching something else.

I went into The Empty Man not knowing anything about it. It was dumped out of nowhere and by the looks of the trailer I figured why. It seemed like a teen horror in the vein of countdown, truth or dare, or even bye bye man. But after the first twenty minutes of this film, I knew I was in for something much different. There is some truly chilling scenes in here, and the atmosphere just adds to the sense of dread. Now the climax of the film does get a bit clunky, but I imagine with this being based on a comic series, it's a lot more flushed out there, but even with an almost 2 1/2 hour run time, it felt like more was needed to be explained. Overall I came out of the empty man not feeling empty at all. It deserves an audience.
