M. Night Shyamalan brings us another cinematic thriller, which revolves around a beach where people rapidly age. Curiosity piqued, so let's review OLD! #Old #OldMovie
He looks like Abraham Lincoln with a buzz cut. Edit: Not really a buzz cut my bad, it's somewhat of a swept back though with a bit of a quiff like he used to have before he grew out his hair then again it's swept back from my point of view here.
Actually I disagree, I think there was a time that he knew how to write and he made some legitimately great movies, and then all of the sudden it’s like he just FORGOT. Split was only good because he wrote the script years and years ago when he did unbreakable. Glass is something that he wrote recently and look how ass it is. At this point it’s M. Night is just like opening a bag of grapes that have been sitting in your fridge for months. They used to be good and now they’re not
Sorry to burst your bubble, but it wasn’t an original concept by Shyamalan, it was based off of a graphic novel by Pierre Oscar Levy and Frederick Peters
Working in a theater is indeed awesome. I watched so many blurays in the morning before opening. We were all friends on the staff so sometimes we'd come in, 3 or 4 of us, and watch "Avengers: Infinity War" or something. It was great. I also watched "Bonnie and Clyde", "Jules and Jim", "Sweet Smell of Success", "Klute", "Kwaidan", "The Killing", "Angels with Dirty Faces", "Billy Liar", just...so many blurays of films that came out before I was even born. Loved it.
@@nattydelights6381 😂 I dunno it just sounded funny. I know it technically makes sense for the movie I’ve just never heard of someone dying from lack of attention. The bad acting made it funnier too personally
Probably because the character just instantly realized this and explained it to the audience in a completely unbelievable way. Literally before she really even had time to realize the baby had died she just immediately blurts out that it died from lack of attention. The line was ridiculous.
@@Sky1Eagle1 I’m curious to understand lol. How did the baby die from lack of attention? If what was affecting everyone was cells? Sure time was moving fast but surely what felt like 1min to them it was 1min for the baby as well ? It’s dumbb but I don’t get it ! Lol
@@dougie953 I also found it hilarious because the acting is bad and it’s a sentence I’ve never heard before. Yes it was funny and people wondering why you laughed are obviously strange miserable individuals 😂
I think the movie is definitely watchable. It kept me engaged, even if there were some really weird transitions. Side thought. Did anyone else think that allowing the baby to actually survive and grow up on the beach would have been a more interesting/horror element to the movie? Like... growing up from a kid who has seen the outside world is one thing. But having that beach be your whole world would be completely different.
@@artjacobbermejo5780 theres a final attempt to escape but one of them gets sniped by an unknown assailant. In the movie they are being watched by someome with a camera, in the book its a sniper. They give up trying to escape as they get weakened by age. Then they all die and the baby (now an adult with the cognitive ability of a newborn) is the last one left. The boy coos and cries for its mama and thats the end (they all die).
@@Enigmata23 wow, more terrifying. The movie ending made me feel odd with the happy ending. As a thriller/horror fan, I always like a more open ending one.
@@Enigmata23 I considered for a second about reading the book but I am glad I saw your spoiler. It would have simply left me depressed. I like this wholesome ending better. Also, now it makes sense why they included the pregnancy scene. It must have been kind of an easter egg to the people familiar with the book.
I’d really like to see how M Night rubs shoulders with producers behind closed doors. He must be the best talker. Because his career should have died SEVERAL times and yet he still gets work.
I think his movies still make money honestly, he has an absurd amount of good will for some reason. But yeah, the man must be the most charming dude in Hollywood.
That bone breaking scene though was WIIIIILD! I found it interesting that they mostly avoiding graphic imagery through the whole movie, then this scene went straight up graphic horror.
It wash such a gruesome scene, she disappears for the last half of the film and when she shows up again she dies looking like a deformed pretzel...rough.
Can we talk about the fact that he actually named a character who's supposed to be a rapper "mid sized sedan" and then the guy introduces himself as that?!!??
I definitely love this movie simply because it's like its telling you that you need to enjoy life while you have it...maintain your childlike attitude even as an adult because once your body starts giving up on you, that's it and there's no going back. The scene where they were both making sandcastles as an adult and he realized the writing that his friend made. It kinda felt like the message he was trying to imply is that you can find a lot of answers within youthful and innocent thinking.
I fee like that is the message of the whole movie. Almost everyone panicked but the main family didn’t. The parents died but they had resolved their conflict. They died happy. The reason the two kids make it out a live is by appreciating the time they have left instead of giving into their fear and despair like so many of the other characters. I think you are one of the few people who understand this film
It's been a little while actually, I don't remember the video that started this trend, but I'm kinda surprised he stopped since it's his signature thing (like it's his profile pic and everything)
@@AdamRoss1 can't edit it and put punctuation. That wasn't the main of the edit. Plus it was more of a character said than a sentence written. But I see your point.
I KNOW! it’s so genius because literally that’s how the mentality of a teenager is they don’t know the consequences. they are literally a child and a developing adult at the same time 😂😂 the best part was before she said that she said “what mom? we were just playing…” LMAO
Went in completely blind (no previews, not the faintest idea what genre it was, and avoided the poster and reviews). I gotta say, I had a pretty fun time with this. It was like if M. Night Shyamalan saw that “Surprise, Motherfucker!” Doakes meme from Dexter and decided to make it a movie. He put about a dozen plates in the air and kept them spinning and while some of them definitely didn’t land, I had an overall good time with this movie and would recommend seeing it in the theater. I caught it in the Dolby Atmos at my AMC and the sound was awesome.
@@SumDumGy_formerly_Tim_Walden I keep my eyes dead ahead when I’m walking down that hallway, hahaha. I’m glad I did, because WHY SHOW THAT IN THE POSTER?!? I don’t understand why he changed the name from the graphic novel either (it was “Sandcastle”, which was a much better name and it also didn’t give away the premise of the story so obviously).
@@MrJagermeister I guess there has to be some sort of teaser involved about the premise to lure in a prospective audience. Otherwise, what is there if you know nothing more than a title? Not many are willing to go in blind, and that doesn’t make money.
@@SumDumGy_formerly_Tim_Walden Normally that would be true, except that is Shayamilan's strength.. he is a 'loot box' and people go because of this exact reason.. the surprise inside. The more vague, the better, for M's case anyway. Sandcastle would have been a much better title.
I just think that M. Night needs someone to come in after he's written a script and just fix all the dialogue so that the characters feel like people instead of talking sense machines in service of the movie. Let M. Night get the concept down and then just do a rewrite... or a few.
@@yaswante4105 Yea, it seems looking at all his movies the best ones have long periods of silence in them... he's a great visual storyteller if the situation calls for little dialogue, the issue in this one is that a group of people experiencing the same f'd thing on a beach ... they are going to talk about it and wow... do they ever.
@@KeithFraser82 That’s exactly what I was thinking. I mean they are both great at creating interesting lore and characters but the dialogue is horrendous.
Say what you will about M.Night. Hell, I do not like most of his movies. BUT Atleast he doesn't sell out and goes with his own vision. I can respect that.
@Jake Boos Yeah but After Earth didn't even feel like an M.Night film if you've watched pretty much any of his other movies. It probably had heavy studio involvement.
It’s kind of ironic because as one of the projectionist guys at the middle school & high school we were considered one of the geeky, nerdy student jobs to have … we were outcast misfits. It’s no surprise that I ended up in the motion picture industry on the camera side and then became so passionate about watching films that I volunteered and worked at a lot of film festivals, Which eventually led me to starting my own international chain of Cinemas. So what inspired me to start my Cinema? I saw the movie Cinema Paradiso 12 times and I was inspired, ironically the film’s story is largely based around a movie theater projectionist… ha.
@@fuegodrinkscauseusuck6100 no that’s not what happens. Without spoiling anything, Jeremy was right about the fact that if you cut the pregnancy scene out, it wouldn’t change a thing about the movie.
I like how you brought up the lack of mystery in this movie, and how sometimes horror is better when questions are left unanswered. The original graphic novel never reveals why the people are aging rapidly on the beach. shyamalan saw that as an opportunity for a twist.
The theatrical poster design is a direct reference to the graphic novel, Sandcastle, which inspired this film. It's from a moment in which a character tells a tale about "a strange old man who had half of everything: half a head, half a body, and half of his arms and legs." Old (2021) marks the first time M. Night Shyamalan has filmed entirely outside Greater Philadelphia since his first film Praying with Anger (1992). However, Guy and Prisca mention that Philadelphia is where they live. The film is an adaptation of a 2010 graphic novel by writer Pierre Oscar Lévy and artist Frederik Peeters called Sandcastle. When asked what inspired him to adapt the book to film, director M. Night Shyamalan explained: "The book gave me the opportunity to work through a lot of anxieties I had around death and aging, and things like my parents getting older." Near the end, the notebook they find that contains a written possible theory and other victims' names is said to have belonged to a science fiction writer. This is a direct reference to the graphic novel wherein the main character that comes up with theories for their unusual situation is a science fiction writer.
I feel like M. Night needs a co-writer at times. Seems like most of his stories are great, but then get into a corner and don't know how to get out at times. just my opinon.
“Shyamalan made Unbreakable and Sixth Sense, surely he’s due for another great one, right?” flashbacks to The Last Airbender and The Happening… “Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.”
While agree, I eventually appreciated the happening. I watched it recently and put my own spin on the story in my head prior to watching it and gotta say I was entertained.
@@ltme4134 you put your own spin on it? Well I recommend checking out the video that says Signs, The Happening, and After Earth are a trilogy. It's a pretty fun theory.
Watched it in the cinema a couple nights ago. By the end of the movie everyone was laughing at how terrible it was. A guy at the end said "well that was shit" and we all cheered in agreement.
“I can’t wait to hear you sing when you’re older” was the most on the nose foreshadowing sentence I’ve ever heard in a movie about growing old fast haha
@@wisco9er536 Yeah, I legit did not see the trailer and saw it with my friend and I liked it. It was a joyful ride but people on the internet are really hating it apparently lol
Well this one is based on a graphic novel but for the most of his career, I appriciate that he's doing something original especially with his Eastrail 177 Trilogy, it's an original superhero trilogy like we've never seen before. I liked the trilogy and I appriciate the originality of the trilogy. His original movies can be weird but sometimes it can also be interesting and unique tbh
He needs to make an all around good movie and not just depend on the twist ending especially when the twist isn't that good. Like Unbreakable which was an all around good movie beginning to end even if there was a twist ending but it didn't depend on it.
My problem with him is that he does have original ideas, but the way he executes them is where he fails. It's either good or bad. There is no middle ground.
Can’t stop thinking about this film. I enjoyed it mostly. Love the idea of Scientists playing games with people’s lives in order to justify saving millions more. Also a police man helping save the day at the end. Thank You. The camera tho couldn’t move smoothly while panning on the beach. It was like flickering around people and items. Wait. How come the bloody nosed rapper didn’t age over night on the beach?
Personally I liked it, the ending did remind me of the "Glass" ending, with the behind the scenes people. Not saying it was a brilliant movie but one I liked, sure it had bad script moments and humour etc but I still stayed engaged. I just feel too many people want perfect movies or absolutely amazing movies all the time.
I watched The Happening last night to prepare myself. Laughed, cringed, gasped but was glued to the TV. Shyamalan movies at the very least are unique. Really looking forward to this.
The Happening is nowhere near the best movie, but god damn is it hilarious and a great time watching it. Sometimes bad can equal good. That is probably one of the best bad movies of all time.
The kids growing up so fast to have a child of their own is part of the theme of the story, so I don’t agree that you can just take the pregnancy scene out. I agree that the dialogue felt weird many times and there was plot holes and inconsistencies, but that particular scene was really good!
Everything happened so fast I didn't really get to know the characters enough to have sympathy for them. Most of the movie just felt like a bunch of random things happening for no reason.
If you only take calcium pills without vitamin K2 (and without getting enough d3 and magnesium), it will make you age rapidly. Better to get more calcium through low oxalate leafy greens. Eating lots of legumes and low oxalate leafy greens slows down aging.
I feel the important take away in this film is to have courage when facing your own mortality. Almost everyone panicked but the main family didn’t. The parents died but they had resolved their conflict. They died happy. The reason the two kids make it out a live is by appreciating the time they have left instead of giving into their fear and despair like so many of the other characters.
I’ll give the movie this much: it unsettled me in the self introspection of my own mortality that it induced. I’ve only ever felt like that after losing a family member or close friend. And the scene with the parents talking before they died broke my heart with it’s honesty. Very thoughtful stuff in a quirky film.
I thoroughly enjoyed the movie personally. Kinda reminded me of old thriller movies that didn’t rely on sex, gore, violence to keep your attention because the strangeness of the situation they were in was enough to captivate. I would recommend it
I think people who hate this movie didn’t realize that they were actually supposed to laugh. This was a comedic parody of the horror genre. It’s so clear but people can’t see that.
I’m always just impressed with how effectively Jeremy is able to articulate his exact thoughts and ideas of a movie in such few words. Like you just always get what he’s explaining, and he only said a couple sentences about it.
Regarding what you said about the less fortunate pregnancy, I actually found this really creepy and felt it added to the feeling of dread to the beach. When it happened, my girlfriend turned to me with the most disgusted face I've ever seen. It was priceless.
I went to see this one without seeing trailers and only knowing the basic premise. I was absolutely blown away by what I saw. This is easily one of the most bizarre, strange and intense movies I have seen in a long time. It did not effect me that much while I was watching it, but certain scenes have been popping in my head since I saw it over two days ago. It's almost like experiencing a nightmare in the sense that, nothing makes sense. I really had a twilight zone feeling here. By all means is this one of his best movies. It's, like I said, bizarre and almost me unconfortable.
I actually loved "OLD". It depicted that most of us "CAN NOT" escape our deterministic future (but only a few). It showed our perceived happiness in the present, and our naive perception of the future. It hit home, how short life is... well at least for me. From growing old and not maturing intellectually, from inevitable medical issues as we age, the important things in life and the trivial things, accepting our destiny/fate or keep trying to create your own no matter how difficult, from philosophical ethics in science research in order to save/help more lives by sacrificing others, relationships, discrimination, etc... Its a plethora of experiences, issues, science, philosophies, ethics, social, etc... beneath the surface of what is merely going on the surface of being in an environment of accelerated aging. After watching several of Shyamalan movies, I'm beginning to see how some of these odd dialogues are purposely deliberate. There's a rhythm and strategically enhance/placed at a particular moments. It leaves bad taste to some, particularly to viewers wanting perfection. But the reality is that, in real life situations, you will find most people saying odd statements/dialogues during stressful situations. Nevertheless, its something that doesn't bother me watching his films as I can relate to them.
Spoiler: Once it was revealed that they all had medical issues, I thought it was the insurance company finding an easy way to kill them and the food the kids ate had something to do with their rapid aging. So close, yet so far.
Thanks for the review, I watched it because it had Gael Garcia Bernal in it, such a great Mexican actor. I sure do like that you mentioned the job you had as a movie theater projectionist end it was the best job ever. That means a lot to people like me…H.M., Founder and Head Projectionist for Highway Cinema
M. Night Shyamalan does this a lot - he has some intriguing setup but is unwilling to actually forge the story. He always underdelivers - in his movie Glass, he is pumping the last battle in the center of Manhattan in front of the world for 1,5 hours and then shows it in the hospital backyard. His series Servant was a constant "atmospheric" suspense build-up without a punchline. I'm starting to recognize his style.
He already was, i never felt like Stuckman was on par, he's so weird, it looks like he's playing a character, I could never enjoy his reviews. Specially anime ones, he would start talking as if he knew a lot about it, but he didn't, at all.
@@MaxIronsThird he grew up in a high control religion. If you meet other ppl who was born in that same religion, they all act like that. I feel bad for him, because he left, he can’t talk to his father anymore. His father is high rank in the religion.
The pregnancy scene was disappointing cuz I was expecting the baby to grow fast as well like a teen with a babies mind but it didn’t happen . but what I loved was during the her pregnancy , it was all a continuous take and I love when movies do that .
The fact that the movie assumes I didn't notice that these kids' bathing suits automatically adjust to adult size, is already a complete deal breaker for me.
Chris stuck man said he’s basically done talking negatively about directors since he’s one now. He said he’ll still review movies he enjoyed and his Halloween specials.
It was cool that he touched on how every race ages differently as does the mind and body. Also the subliminal messages that were put in the movie. Ex: the woman’s makeup resembling a clowns face as she aged. There were a lot instances where he touched on social aspects of human nature as well. Ex: The most rational person at first (the nurse) who explained how impossible it’d be to swim against the oceans current, eventually lost all sense of ration and was the first person to attempt it (leading to his death). The movie was very well put together.
This was about a C+ for me saved by the final act. SPOILER: If the people are aging one year every 30 minutes why aren't the females having continuous periods?
I would assume for the same reason they don't have to eat, drink, or go to the bathroom at an advanced rate. Their bodies aren't going through every natural process at hyper-speed. It's more like only the cells are advancing/dying quickly, but everything else about them remains the same (like as they mentioned in the film, their skin & nails aren't growing either). It's not entirely logical but I can accept it. If they needed to eat, drink, etc enough for 50ish years in just half a day, none of them would make it beyond probably minutes. If the women had years worth of periods in minutes, they'd bleed out right away. Everyone would die right away from not being able to keep up with their bodies' needs before any aging effects got to them.
Could be that there body’s age physically but don’t go through the physical necessities since the amount of calories it would take the kids to go through puberty and the amount of joint pain the kids would go through during puberty being condensed into less then a day not having them scrunched over in pain.
@@whitb850 It was only the kids that needed a lot of food because they were the ones that were growing and were ravenously hungry all the time. None of them had to eat enough food for 50 years, I'm not even sure how you came to that conclusion.
To describe his movies as a loot box is accurate as hell. I'm like I don't know because it's a M.Night movie. But yet I'm curious to watch it because it's an M.Night movie it's a 50/50 gamble lol.
Shyamalan has a great conceptual vision, but a strange execution. Sometimes that's all you need, because at least you're curious. The writing took me out of the movie, but the emotional moments helped bring me back in. Seeing those parents talk as they accepted the state of themselves, it hit a chord. I left the theater thinking, and I think that's what he wanted.
I feel like Shyamalan can make good movies when no one expects anything of him. But when he gets a hit the success builds his ego back up and he produces another shitshow. Also sometimes he clearly doesn't give a fuck and thinks that it'll work just because he directed it (looking at you Airbender, the Happening, Devil and so on)
Try writing a ton of stories and see if you can come up with just one epic tale that everyone loves, that is different. It’s far more difficult than u think… we are spoiled
Shyamalan just need to understand that he needs screenwriters to enhance the quality of his scripts. He always has the unique high profile ideas( which is very rare in this remake/reboot era) but sometimes failed in execution just like Split and this Old. Common man by hiring writers who will help you in writing doesn't lead to decline in ur ego
As a Night fan, even though I personally consider him a genius I have to agree that his scripts need a little tweak here and there. But I personally think he has more success in the box office that people seems to forget. Unfortunately when one of his movies is bad is *really* bad.
*Absolutely fell in love with this movie.* Personally for me, I’d say 8/10. It’s terrifying…and emotionally sad…and makes you realize what it means growing up and how much time you don’t have left with your family and loved ones. I usually HATE M. Night’s movies, but this one struck a chord with me. I feel like those who like thrillers with developed characters and emotional storylines on top of just constant thriller elements will like this (though don’t get me wrong, I still think this movie had pretty terrifying, disturbing sequences and deaths, especially the “hunchback” woman). I recommend it.
I like the story but the dialog wasn't great... too much was explained and too many dots were connected. Like how would the beach people KNOW it was the rocks???? Just a little too easy for them to know this and figure it out. But the story in general was good as well the meaning of the movie. It had potential to be better via the script because the acting was great!
I enjoyed it but thought it was fun and funny, not great and scary. The dialogue is too nonsensical and there's no suspense about the characters dying because the intro to their lives felt rushed and superficial. They all kind of felt like caricatures and not real humans who had a life before the movie. That being said I enjoyed watching the way the movie played out but never felt scared for the characters or their fates because they just felt disposable in service of the individual cool moments that take advantage of the premise.
I haven't seen the movie yet but when Jeremy mentioned it was from a book, I got interested. Someone below said it was called "sandcastles" which was close but not 100% accurate. The "book" is actually a graphic novel called "Sandcastle" by Frederik Peeters and Pierre Oscar Lévy, if anyone is interested. There is a novel called "Sandcastles" by Luanne Rice, but it's nothing like the M. Night Shyamalan movie (I've haven't read either the book or graphic novel, just sharing what a quick Google search yielded).
I love thrillers and thought the movie was really good! Before watching it i was thinking it was gonna be something more sci fi like aliens or someshit, it kept me wondering wtf is going on, and how eventually gets explained in the end, is all i really want from a thriller! I want more movies like that!!
Yea it's another one of those movies you have to turn your brain off to accept it's logic. There's another part where they can't exit the beach because the "magic" keeps them from leaving by making them walk backwards but it doesn't stop them from entering.
Didnt know it was based off a graphic novel but I enjoyed the science behind it. It helped to watch it with two Physician Assistants who are well informed on health and could explain to me everyone’s disorders and how the health science behind each disorder works. We had a whole a conversation on the old man’s dementia and how realistic it was for how some get extremely violent. I enjoyed it for the health science but yeah the film plot was okay for someone who is not a health professional. I did like the twist at the end though of the pharmacy using these people as experiments to test their drugs though.

Side thought. Did anyone else think that allowing the baby to actually survive and grow up on the beach would have been a more interesting/horror element to the movie? Like... growing up from a kid who has seen the outside world is one thing. But having that beach be your whole world would be completely different.
That’s actually what happens in the graphic novel. The baby survives and…well I won’t spoil it but it’s a far better ending.

It's all about risk-reward if he makes 8 cheap movies and one of them turns out like The Sixth Sense you have more than made your money back
I think his movies still make money honestly, he has an absurd amount of good will for some reason. But yeah, the man must be the most charming dude in Hollywood.
Same could be said with Ryan Johnson. Literally destroyed starwars with a single movie
The village and lady in the water made good money I believe
At least he's creative although most of the time you do get some weird piece of shit sometimes it's brilliant and mind-bending

Best comedy ever
His rap name should have had you crying laughing as well.
He had 0 expressions the whole movie man. He died having the same confused looking face 😂
😂😂😂😂 i thought i was the only person who noticed this. Nobody acts like this in real life.
Ah damn, really?
His character was a horrible racial stereotype.
That bone breaking scene though was WIIIIILD!
I found it interesting that they mostly avoiding graphic imagery through the whole movie, then this scene went straight up graphic horror.
It wash such a gruesome scene, she disappears for the last half of the film and when she shows up again she dies looking like a deformed pretzel...rough.
Most disturbing scene was the stillbirth
I needed to watch shrek before bed just to forget that scene, even thinking about it now gives me chills!!!
No, it wasn't.
Exactly !!!!!
Actual dialogue in this movie:
“Oh my god the dog is dying”
“But it was only just alive.”
Grade A writing by M. Night
Got a solid chuckle from me and one other kindred spirit in the theater
Can we talk about the fact that he actually named a character who's supposed to be a rapper "mid sized sedan" and then the guy introduces himself as that?!!??
@@natecochrane93 I've heard worse rapper names. Maybe this guy's name should've been "MC Exposition".
"WHAT? NO."

The book this movie is based on is called Sandcastle.
Wasn't it a Graphic Novel? or maybe it was both
Mark Newman you’re correct. it was a graphic novel.
@@Dats_Mark it is. The graphic novel Sandcastle made by Pierre Oscar Lévy and Frederik Peeters
Everything's gotta be based off of something now...
Some says the novel ending is really depressing and glad M.Night altered a bit.
The book is called “sandcastles”, if anybody cares
Nope
@@neilcvernon6957 dwl
Oh thats why they were making sandcastles in the movie. Thanks
I definitely love this movie simply because it's like its telling you that you need to enjoy life while you have it...maintain your childlike attitude even as an adult because once your body starts giving up on you, that's it and there's no going back.
The scene where they were both making sandcastles as an adult and he realized the writing that his friend made. It kinda felt like the message he was trying to imply is that you can find a lot of answers within youthful and innocent thinking.
I fee like that is the message of the whole movie. Almost everyone panicked but the main family didn’t. The parents died but they had resolved their conflict. They died happy. The reason the two kids make it out a live is by appreciating the time they have left instead of giving into their fear and despair like so many of the other characters.
I think you are one of the few people who understand this film
This. Good movie.
Don’t make this about advice now old man, get with the times old man

Went in completely blind (no previews, not the faintest idea what genre it was, and avoided the poster and reviews). I gotta say, I had a pretty fun time with this. It was like if M. Night Shyamalan saw that “Surprise, Motherfucker!” Doakes meme from Dexter and decided to make it a movie. He put about a dozen plates in the air and kept them spinning and while some of them definitely didn’t land, I had an overall good time with this movie and would recommend seeing it in the theater. I caught it in the Dolby Atmos at my AMC and the sound was awesome.
How did you avoid the poster? It was in the theaters and outside at the entrances? That aside, I went in equally blind.
@@SumDumGy_formerly_Tim_Walden I keep my eyes dead ahead when I’m walking down that hallway, hahaha. I’m glad I did, because WHY SHOW THAT IN THE POSTER?!? I don’t understand why he changed the name from the graphic novel either (it was “Sandcastle”, which was a much better name and it also didn’t give away the premise of the story so obviously).
@@MrJagermeister I guess there has to be some sort of teaser involved about the premise to lure in a prospective audience. Otherwise, what is there if you know nothing more than a title? Not many are willing to go in blind, and that doesn’t make money.
@@SumDumGy_formerly_Tim_Walden Normally that would be true, except that is Shayamilan's strength.. he is a 'loot box' and people go because of this exact reason.. the surprise inside. The more vague, the better, for M's case anyway. Sandcastle would have been a much better title.
@@daedalos5132 Consider the majority of the audience are normies though, not people familiar with his work/patterns.
I just think that M. Night needs someone to come in after he's written a script and just fix all the dialogue so that the characters feel like people instead of talking sense machines in service of the movie. Let M. Night get the concept down and then just do a rewrite... or a few.
Fair enough
So a bit like George Lucas, really.
yea he has really unique concepts but they could be a lot better with the right dialogue
@@yaswante4105 Yea, it seems looking at all his movies the best ones have long periods of silence in them... he's a great visual storyteller if the situation calls for little dialogue, the issue in this one is that a group of people experiencing the same f'd thing on a beach ... they are going to talk about it and wow... do they ever.

But this movie is based off of a book so it’s not even original 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Casual.
@Jake Boos Yeah but After Earth didn't even feel like an M.Night film if you've watched pretty much any of his other movies. It probably had heavy studio involvement.

Just throwing this out there: Projectionist is definitely the "cool guy" position in any movie theater place.
It’s kind of ironic because as one of the projectionist guys at the middle school & high school we were considered one of the geeky, nerdy student jobs to have … we were outcast misfits.
It’s no surprise that I ended up in the motion picture industry on the camera side and then became so passionate about watching films that I volunteered and worked at a lot of film festivals, Which eventually led me to starting my own international chain of Cinemas. So what inspired me to start my Cinema? I saw the movie Cinema Paradiso 12 times and I was inspired, ironically the film’s story is largely based around a movie theater projectionist… ha.
@@HunterMann Damn dude that's amazing. Glad to hear that for you!

I like how you brought up the lack of mystery in this movie, and how sometimes horror is better when questions are left unanswered. The original graphic novel never reveals why the people are aging rapidly on the beach. shyamalan saw that as an opportunity for a twist.
The theatrical poster design is a direct reference to the graphic novel, Sandcastle, which inspired this film. It's from a moment in which a character tells a tale about "a strange old man who had half of everything: half a head, half a body, and half of his arms and legs."
Old (2021) marks the first time M. Night Shyamalan has filmed entirely outside Greater Philadelphia since his first film Praying with Anger (1992). However, Guy and Prisca mention that Philadelphia is where they live.
The film is an adaptation of a 2010 graphic novel by writer Pierre Oscar Lévy and artist Frederik Peeters called Sandcastle. When asked what inspired him to adapt the book to film, director M. Night Shyamalan explained: "The book gave me the opportunity to work through a lot of anxieties I had around death and aging, and things like my parents getting older."
Near the end, the notebook they find that contains a written possible theory and other victims' names is said to have belonged to a science fiction writer. This is a direct reference to the graphic novel wherein the main character that comes up with theories for their unusual situation is a science fiction writer.
I feel like M. Night needs a co-writer at times. Seems like most of his stories are great, but then get into a corner and don't know how to get out at times. just my opinon.
Yes!!! Not everyone needs to say their occupation.

Watched it in the cinema a couple nights ago. By the end of the movie everyone was laughing at how terrible it was. A guy at the end said "well that was shit" and we all cheered in agreement.

“We were already getting divorced - don’t bring up an irrelevant medical issue” guess it will be relevant then.

Review it soon Jeremy
What isn’t debatable is M’s vision with cinematography and editing. Always so captivating and I love the colors and pace of his films.
I’m happy to hear the love being shared for The Ruins. It is great, I’ve seen it twice and it holds up
Wait, people on a island that age quickly. Sounds like a episode of Gilligan's island.
Why? Beacuse they are on an Island?
That and in one episode a meteorite landed on the island and stared aging everything near it with a strange form of radiation.
There also an episode of the x files where mulder and skully age rapidly on a ship.
Or somthing from lost, even miles in this movie 🤣
At least he brings originality to his movies, whether they're poor or not.
That's true an original idea in a reboot era
Well this one is based on a graphic novel but for the most of his career, I appriciate that he's doing something original especially with his Eastrail 177 Trilogy, it's an original superhero trilogy like we've never seen before. I liked the trilogy and I appriciate the originality of the trilogy. His original movies can be weird but sometimes it can also be interesting and unique tbh
He needs to make an all around good movie and not just depend on the twist ending especially when the twist isn't that good. Like Unbreakable which was an all around good movie beginning to end even if there was a twist ending but it didn't depend on it.
@@15Candles very true. I like the fact he selects very uncommon stories to tell and that he always puts his own spin on tropes we have seen before.
My problem with him is that he does have original ideas, but the way he executes them is where he fails. It's either good or bad. There is no middle ground.
Can’t stop thinking about this film. I enjoyed it mostly. Love the idea of Scientists playing games with people’s lives in order to justify saving millions more. Also a police man helping save the day at the end. Thank You. The camera tho couldn’t move smoothly while panning on the beach. It was like flickering around people and items.
Wait. How come the bloody nosed rapper didn’t age over night on the beach?
Personally I liked it, the ending did remind me of the "Glass" ending, with the behind the scenes people. Not saying it was a brilliant movie but one I liked, sure it had bad script moments and humour etc but I still stayed engaged. I just feel too many people want perfect movies or absolutely amazing movies all the time.
I watched The Happening last night to prepare myself. Laughed, cringed, gasped but was glued to the TV. Shyamalan movies at the very least are unique. Really looking forward to this.
Its the wind!!
I just experienced something similar there were some very sad scenes but the lines were just so funny campy
I thought the premise of the movie was scary AF but Mark Wahlberg acting in the movie was horrendous
@@secretagentrandybeans2203 whhhatt? Nooo.

Sometimes bad can equal good. That is probably one of the best bad movies of all time.

@@kp1x I think maybe you replied to the wrong comments? But since you bring it up... Are you offering?
I’ll still never forgive Shyamalan for how he butchered the last air bender
That was ok, don't fret
I liked it.. wished there was a part 2.
There is no movie in Ba Sing Se.
Yeah that ruined it for me
The kids growing up so fast to have a child of their own is part of the theme of the story, so I don’t agree that you can just take the pregnancy scene out.
I agree that the dialogue felt weird many times and there was plot holes and inconsistencies, but that particular scene was really good!
I think it also added a justification for why Kara attempted to climb up the rocks, she was emotionally drained and desperate to escape.
Everything happened so fast I didn't really get to know the characters enough to have sympathy for them. Most of the movie just felt like a bunch of random things happening for no reason.
This movie made me want to go home and immediately take calcium pills.
If you only take calcium pills without vitamin K2 (and without getting enough d3 and magnesium), it will make you age rapidly. Better to get more calcium through low oxalate leafy greens. Eating lots of legumes and low oxalate leafy greens slows down aging.
Lol i just wanted to look up what calcium deficiency caused.
There was no camera-punch at the end. Don't think we didn't notice!
yeah he stopped that a while back and I was like wait when did he stop doing the punch🤷🏽♀️
Why did he stop? Does anybody know? Is he scared people would report him as a violent youtube channel?
Omg. Your thumbnail had me rofl.
Enjoyed your video. I agree with you. The trailer gave it away.
I feel the important take away in this film is to have courage when facing your own mortality.
Almost everyone panicked but the main family didn’t. The parents died but they had resolved their conflict. They died happy. The reason the two kids make it out a live is by appreciating the time they have left instead of giving into their fear and despair like so many of the other characters.
@Vic LTD why do you say the execution was poor?
I’ll give the movie this much: it unsettled me in the self introspection of my own mortality that it induced. I’ve only ever felt like that after losing a family member or close friend. And the scene with the parents talking before they died broke my heart with it’s honesty. Very thoughtful stuff in a quirky film.
Diddo the parents aging and saying "what were we fighting about I forget but I'm not mad" made me grab my wife like life too short for the bs

I thoroughly enjoyed the movie personally. Kinda reminded me of old thriller movies that didn’t rely on sex, gore, violence to keep your attention because the strangeness of the situation they were in was enough to captivate. I would recommend it
Your intro graphics always reminds me of Jeremy Kyle talk show 😝. Keep up the good work pal awesome as usual
Just about everyone at our screening was laughing at all the “horror” moments. The part with the lady in the cave was hilarious 😂
When she started throwing stones”don’t look at me!l”
I think that "moment" from the trailer might be horrifying.
When she picked up the rock and dropped it on her own back! I lost it ! Lmfaoooo I was like calm down!
I think people who hate this movie didn’t realize that they were actually supposed to laugh. This was a comedic parody of the horror genre. It’s so clear but people can’t see that.
I’m always just impressed with how effectively Jeremy is able to articulate his exact thoughts and ideas of a movie in such few words. Like you just always get what he’s explaining, and he only said a couple sentences about it.
@Clarissa Harlee uh…
1. Stuckmann is still making plenty of reviews
2. He was never better than Jeremy
3. It was never a competition
The movie held my attention and I was entertained.
Regarding what you said about the less fortunate pregnancy, I actually found this really creepy and felt it added to the feeling of dread to the beach.
When it happened, my girlfriend turned to me with the most disgusted face I've ever seen.
It was priceless.
I went to see this one without seeing trailers and only knowing the basic premise. I was absolutely blown away by what I saw. This is easily one of the most bizarre, strange and intense movies I have seen in a long time. It did not effect me that much while I was watching it, but certain scenes have been popping in my head since I saw it over two days ago. It's almost like experiencing a nightmare in the sense that, nothing makes sense. I really had a twilight zone feeling here. By all means is this one of his best movies. It's, like I said, bizarre and almost me unconfortable.
Then the graphic novel will never make you extremely uncomfortable.
The novel ‘The Ruins’ by Scott Smith is amazing, and far better than the movie. 💚
Seems your opinion is the end all be all of whats good..Just because something doesn't thrill your expectations doesn't mean its bad.
She never said the movie was bad. Its just that the novel was better and better ending. The final girl ending is so cliche.
I can't recollect any instance where any movie was better than their book counterpart though.
Both of these movies suck
My favorite book. Your spot on.
Oh yeremy yahns ya had me fooled. I thought you looked older from the thumbnail and here you are young and happy . What a miracle it is to be young .
I actually loved "OLD".
It depicted that most of us "CAN NOT" escape our deterministic future (but only a few).
It showed our perceived happiness in the present, and our naive perception of the future.
It hit home, how short life is... well at least for me.
From growing old and not maturing intellectually, from inevitable medical issues as we age, the important things in life and the trivial things, accepting our destiny/fate or keep trying to create your own no matter how difficult, from philosophical ethics in science research in order to save/help more lives by sacrificing others, relationships, discrimination, etc...
Its a plethora of experiences, issues, science, philosophies, ethics, social, etc... beneath the surface of what is merely going on the surface of being in an environment of accelerated aging.
After watching several of Shyamalan movies, I'm beginning to see how some of these odd dialogues are purposely deliberate. There's a rhythm and strategically enhance/placed at a particular moments. It leaves bad taste to some, particularly to viewers wanting perfection. But the reality is that, in real life situations, you will find most people saying odd statements/dialogues during stressful situations. Nevertheless, its something that doesn't bother me watching his films as I can relate to them.
Spoiler:
Once it was revealed that they all had medical issues, I thought it was the insurance company finding an easy way to kill them and the food the kids ate had something to do with their rapid aging. So close, yet so far.
One member of each family had medical issues. Not all. But yeah I understand what you mean.

Diverse in making different kind of shit maybe.
M. Night Shyamalan does this a lot - he has some intriguing setup but is unwilling to actually forge the story. He always underdelivers - in his movie Glass, he is pumping the last battle in the center of Manhattan in front of the world for 1,5 hours and then shows it in the hospital backyard. His series Servant was a constant "atmospheric" suspense build-up without a punchline.

I’m just glad the theater I went to played a preview of “Missouri Breaks”, starring Marlin Brando and Jack Nicholson before the film started…
It was cool that he touched on how every race ages differently as does the mind and body. Also the subliminal messages that were put in the movie. Ex: the woman’s makeup resembling a clowns face as she aged. There were a lot instances where he touched on social aspects of human nature as well. Ex: The most rational person at first (the nurse) who explained how impossible it’d be to swim against the oceans current, eventually lost all sense of ration and was the first person to attempt it (leading to his death). The movie was very well put together.
This was about a C+ for me saved by the final act. SPOILER: If the people are aging one year every 30 minutes why aren't the females having continuous periods?
I would assume for the same reason they don't have to eat, drink, or go to the bathroom at an advanced rate. Their bodies aren't going through every natural process at hyper-speed. It's more like only the cells are advancing/dying quickly, but everything else about them remains the same (like as they mentioned in the film, their skin & nails aren't growing either). It's not entirely logical but I can accept it. If they needed to eat, drink, etc enough for 50ish years in just half a day, none of them would make it beyond probably minutes. If the women had years worth of periods in minutes, they'd bleed out right away. Everyone would die right away from not being able to keep up with their bodies' needs before any aging effects got to them.
... and shitting on themselves every second
Could be that there body’s age physically but don’t go through the physical necessities since the amount of calories it would take the kids to go through puberty and the amount of joint pain the kids would go through during puberty being condensed into less then a day not having them scrunched over in pain.
@@whitb850 perfectly said
@@whitb850 It was only the kids that needed a lot of food because they were the ones that were growing and were ravenously hungry all the time. None of them had to eat enough food for 50 years, I'm not even sure how you came to that conclusion.
To describe his movies as a loot box is accurate as hell. I'm like I don't know because it's a M.Night movie. But yet I'm curious to watch it because it's an M.Night movie it's a 50/50 gamble lol.
That's for every director. Even an award-winning director has their worst movie made. It just means that Shyamalan has an audience.
Shyamalan has a great conceptual vision, but a strange execution. Sometimes that's all you need, because at least you're curious. The writing took me out of the movie, but the emotional moments helped bring me back in. Seeing those parents talk as they accepted the state of themselves, it hit a chord. I left the theater thinking, and I think that's what he wanted.
Glad Jeremy is going to continue doing reviews.
I feel like Shyamalan can make good movies when no one expects anything of him. But when he gets a hit the success builds his ego back up and he produces another shitshow. Also sometimes he clearly doesn't give a fuck and thinks that it'll work just because he directed it (looking at you Airbender, the Happening, Devil and so on)
Didn't direct devil.
the Visit was ridiculously bad
Yeah i think you nailed perfectly
Also Devil wasn’t a bad movie.
Try writing a ton of stories and see if you can come up with just one epic tale that everyone loves, that is different. It’s far more difficult than u think… we are spoiled
Shyamalan just need to understand that he needs screenwriters to enhance the quality of his scripts. He always has the unique high profile ideas( which is very rare in this remake/reboot era) but sometimes failed in execution just like Split and this Old. Common man by hiring writers who will help you in writing doesn't lead to decline in ur ego
Split wasn't that bad. It's actually quite good. James Mccavoy and Anya saved the movie. However, Glass was a different story
This movie is based on a graphic novel, but I do agree with your point. His storytelling leaves a lot to be desired
Yeah, I agree, he needs other writers to help him out.
As a Night fan, even though I personally consider him a genius I have to agree that his scripts need a little tweak here and there. But I personally think he has more success in the box office that people seems to forget. Unfortunately when one of his movies is bad is *really* bad.
You remined me of how fun it was to find a random movie you never heard of at Blockbuster and be completely surprised.
*Absolutely fell in love with this movie.* Personally for me, I’d say 8/10. It’s terrifying…and emotionally sad…and makes you realize what it means growing up and how much time you don’t have left with your family and loved ones. I usually HATE M. Night’s movies, but this one struck a chord with me. I feel like those who like thrillers with developed characters and emotional storylines on top of just constant thriller elements will like this (though don’t get me wrong, I still think this movie had pretty terrifying, disturbing sequences and deaths, especially the “hunchback” woman). I recommend it.
I liked it as well, damn. I REALLY don't see the hate.
It was good
I like the story but the dialog wasn't great... too much was explained and too many dots were connected. Like how would the beach people KNOW it was the rocks???? Just a little too easy for them to know this and figure it out. But the story in general was good as well the meaning of the movie. It had potential to be better via the script because the acting was great!
I enjoyed it but thought it was fun and funny, not great and scary. The dialogue is too nonsensical and there's no suspense about the characters dying because the intro to their lives felt rushed and superficial. They all kind of felt like caricatures and not real humans who had a life before the movie. That being said I enjoyed watching the way the movie played out but never felt scared for the characters or their fates because they just felt disposable in service of the individual cool moments that take advantage of the premise.
Good movie
The bit with the Lady in the cave near the end was horrifying
Wasn’t that bad
I laughed at that part...this movie didn't do it for me at all.
@@JD-wh9pj laughing is a way to cope with uncomfortable situations or trauma.
@@arnoldpalmer3748 you just had to ruin his edgy response, why?.....sigh
@@arnoldpalmer3748 or maybe because it’s not that scary and more laughable
9 years after I started watching Jeremy, he still delivers the most real reviews on RUclips.
I haven't seen the movie yet but when Jeremy mentioned it was from a book, I got interested. Someone below said it was called "sandcastles" which was close but not 100% accurate. The "book" is actually a graphic novel called "Sandcastle" by Frederik Peeters and Pierre Oscar Lévy, if anyone is interested. There is a novel called "Sandcastles" by Luanne Rice, but it's nothing like the M. Night Shyamalan movie (I've haven't read either the book or graphic novel, just sharing what a quick Google search yielded).
I love thrillers and thought the movie was really good! Before watching it i was thinking it was gonna be something more sci fi like aliens or someshit, it kept me wondering wtf is going on, and how eventually gets explained in the end, is all i really want from a thriller! I want more movies like that!!
Why would the kids' clothes still fit when they became adults? I can't get past that.
Yea it's another one of those movies you have to turn your brain off to accept it's logic. There's another part where they can't exit the beach because the "magic" keeps them from leaving by making them walk backwards but it doesn't stop them from entering.
They change clothes sorta
They change clothes
They changed their clothes
I want to see a vid on all the plotholes. It might be hours.
The ruins is a really underrated movie
Nah, it sucked.
@@richardsantanna5398 you buggin that movie is good as hell especially for it’s time
What’s it about?
@@encalibirentertainment6777 RUINS!!
Beautiful review... 👏👏👏
Didnt know it was based off a graphic novel but I enjoyed the science behind it. It helped to watch it with two Physician Assistants who are well informed on health and could explain to me everyone’s disorders and how the health science behind each disorder works. We had a whole a conversation on the old man’s dementia and how realistic it was for how some get extremely violent. I enjoyed it for the health science but yeah the film plot was okay for someone who is not a health professional. I did like the twist at the end though of the pharmacy using these people as experiments to test their drugs though.
