gotoads - 23 June 2024 Solid and unsettling This film isn't to be taken literally. It is filled with metaphors that utilize extreme symbolism. It turns the standard coming of age story into a horrific nightmare. Some viewers will fail to catch on and complain about this or that, but understanding the director's approach is the key to enjoying the film. And it should be pointed out the director is a female, so this certainly adds to the film's authenticity. The acting is solid throughout. Also, the special effects work well. Sometimes CGI can take you out of a movie but when done right, it can add to the experience, as is the case here. The bird creature was creepy and gross, as intended. There may be a few moments that seem unrealistic, but they aren't in the horror elements. It's more of an ultra-odd family dynamic, but these exaggerations probably help in driving home the point of it all. Anyhow, if you don't mind reading subtitles and not taking things literally, Hatching is a worthy effort you should enjoy.
welshshonta - 27 December 2023 False advertisement, they should actually be sued First off never ever in the trailer does it ever advertise it being narrated in such detail that a visually impaired person could watch this movie
If this movie was intended for the visually impaired advertise it as so
Which is great and wonderful
But to advertise it
never ever in the trailers being narrated in such detail is totally false advertisement and it's totally wrong
It's very frustrating watching a movie when it's being narrated in such a detailed way when you're not asking for it and it's no way to shut it off
Very disappointed in such false advertisement is not even funny
all that I'm saying is just be honest in the trailer if the trailer was advertised it being narrated in such detail I would have never bothered with this movie
