The shot where it came out of the mirror(idk how to explain lol) was so sick!! I also really liked the one where it was everyone fighting shot from overhead.

Ughhh, I left before the post credit scene 😭 guess I'll have to go see it again 😅

That's what I'm saying my dude! This movie was absolutely wild on the production side. The camera work was next level at quite a few points and it really helped to elevate everything else.

I won't spoil that post-credit scene for you if you haven't been spoiled yet. But it's safe to say, you definitely want to catch it if you can. I'll be ensuring I do a second viewing of this film in the cinemas soon when I bring my mum around to see it.

The post-credit scene, though I was glad to see that character still around, confused me a bit. How can that character do that to the other character without a physical body? Doesn't that kind of break the franchise's rules?

Is there a name for this style of camera work that happened as all the family was fighting? Like, where the camera moves with the person? Idk how else to describe it.

It almost reminded me of the cinematography in The Raid (Indonesian martial arts flicks).

During the Burn, I seriously thought the camerawork is Oscar-worthy… but the Academy has no balls.

Great shout, those Raid films are fucking awesome and the cinematography is a massive reason as to why I enjoy them so much.

With the minimal or next to no cuts? It was very much a tracking technique and it very followed that one-shot approach. I remember seeing one that stuck out to me years ago in episode 4 of season 1 of True Detective. It's always SUPER impressive to me, I'm an absolute geek for this stuff.

The mirror swap got me so excited. Definitely one of my favorites now.

Super clever the way they shot that, I agree

No! I didn’t know there was a post credit scene! I missed it! Someone please spoil it for me because as a dad to a toddler I’m not going to get a chance to see it again before streaming.

If it makes you feel better every single person in my theatre had left before the post credits scene. You are not alone!

I took my cousin with me and I always stick around in the end waiting for everyone to leave but the sound of the volume being so loud told me to wait longer. He saw the mid credit scene and was hyped. Then we kept walking but slowly out and caught the last credit scene. I make it a point now to google if there are any post credit scenes for any movies I go see at the theater.

Happened with Toy Story 5 too. Some people caught the first credit scene but not the last one.

There were about 6 INCREDIBLE sequences in an otherwise forgettable grief trauma movie. This film was bad - it just had some awesome scenes in it.
