Review of Old Man

Old Man (2022)
3/10
That ending.. Just killed it completely
25 October 2022
This started as a slow burn movie of a convo between a weird old dude and a yonger weird and annoying serial killer looking and behaving dude.

Then it progressed to conversation based story of old dudes past experiences in his cabin. There are a lot of red flags about the younger person yet the overly suspicious old dude becomes inert to them and carries on as if there is nothing strange about everything.

As it goes along you are waiting for the carnage to start occurring at some point since there is solid build up for one of the 2 men (or maybe both) to go full psycho on each other. Plenty of clues for that are dropped and drum roll, bait and switch.

Instead nothingburger takes place with some absolutely abhorrent out of place supernatural dead mountain lion ghost undertaker fountain of youth time loop ghost something taking the stage. Movie ends. Nothing happened. It was all fake. Except the fake part at the end that was supposedly real.

Absolute train wreck. It was a 6/10 movie the nosedived right into a volcano at the end. It is bad.. not bad in a witty way, just plain horribly bad. Shallow, unimaginative taken out of some toddlers random nightmare one day bad. Actually i think that is what took place here. It was some crew members toddlers dream that they made into a movie here. And the adults left the stage halfway in.
