Unfortunately, we were left with a mess of a film filled with unbelievable twists and underdeveloped characters. Fans were ecstatic when it was announced that the main three characters from both films would reunite for a final installment. Unbreakable even had one of the best twists I have ever seen in a movie. The film is the final installment in a trilogy that included Unbreakable (2000) and Split (2016), which were both great films. This is a twist that will forever make me angry. Having the twist be something as unbelievable as her being the granddaughter of Palpatine made no sense for the franchise, did not work with Palpatine’s backstory, and was overall just a major letdown to fans that had eagerly awaited the discovery of Rey’s parents’ identities. It was even said in Episode VIII that her parents were actually “nobodies,” and she had been lied to. There were countless theories about who her parents might be. It had been teased since Episode VII that Rey’s parents played an important role which is why her character would be vital to the resistance and reuniting Luke, Leia, and Han. In my opinion, this was the biggest letdown in the Star Wars franchise. What I was most disappointed about with the films, though, was the twist in Episode IX when it is revealed that not only is Palpatine alive, but Rey is his granddaughter. While I agree they weren’t the best, I enjoyed them for the most part. 6. The Rise Of Skywalker (2019)įans have been vocal about their disappointment with the Star Wars sequel trilogy since its release. It makes no sense and throws off the entire film. We discover this when the kids show their mother the grandparents during a facetime chat, and she delivers the “twist.” Rather than setting this twist up, audiences are expected to believe that a mother would send her two children to stay with parents she hasn’t spoken to in years and whom her children have never met. We discover that the children are not actually with their grandparents but escaped patients from a mental institution that killed the real grandparents. The twist of this film could have been well done, but unfortunately, it felt rushed and lazy, which made it truly unbelievable. The film starts out fine – it’s creepy, and every time the grandparents interact with the children, it is unnerving, creating tension with each scene. Two children visit their estranged grandparents, whom they have never met, while their mother is on vacation with a new boyfriend. ![]() ![]() The Visit was set up to be a genuinely great and terrifying horror film. It would have been better if the film had been about a haunted doll because the idea that a child faked its own death and then moved into the walls, took care of themselves, and remained undiscovered for 20 years makes absolutely no sense. First, the parents commit suicide after the nanny’s arrival telling their son that “the girl is his now.” Second, the doll is not haunted, and Brahms is alive and has been living in the walls of the home, moving the doll and acting out when his rules are broken. Everything about this film was scary and fantastic until the twists. The nanny is given a strict list of rules which, in true horror film fashion, she violates and thus starts a chain of terrifying events. ![]() She soon learns that Brahms is actually a doll, and he is how the parents cope with their real son’s death 20 years earlier. The Boy looked terrifying as it was expected to tell the story of an American nanny who takes a job in England to be the nanny to an older couple’s young son. With the popularity of films like Child’s Play, The Conjuring, and Annabelle, it was no surprise when more haunted doll films began to pop up.
