I just realized why I liked the first half of this movie - and who Cooper reminds me of: Riddick from Pitch Black. Less action oriented, perhaps, but both of them have a reputation for being brutal killers, a fearsome capacity for intellect and strategic-planning, and a significantly apathetic personality.
@@gamepoy5056 I really liked it but that's besides the point. I'm just saying that the high-concept premise plus Josh Hartnett being "rediscovered" playing a villain protagonist will make many clips from this movie go viral and people will look for it on streaming.
One of the first modern American movies that actually looks like what a high quality modern movie should look like. Sayombhu Mukdeeprom’s techniques and mastery of light and shadow really shines here in the subtlest of ways. There are scenes where Josh Hartnett’s face is lit so his eyes go completely black when he leans back into a certain mark. Incredible stuff, this movie doesn’t deserve the hate it gets
@@techboy2002 if you haven’t already I would encourage you to watch movies by writer/directors like Yorgos Lanthimos or Wes Anderson for the dialogue style. Theirs is very similar but their narratives are usually a larger deviation from reality, so their dialogue styles are overlooked. A lot of people write off Shyamalan’s dialogue as clunky and obtuse, but I think that’s an unjust stigma. I think his dialogue is purposefully written to be off putting to take an audience out of their comfort zone, as well as being an additional fictive layer to create a greater suspension of disbelief for narratives that supposedly take place in our everyday life
So nobody called out this guy for putting bottles in the deep fryers? Of the two dozen people constantly looking in that direction. No other employees asked why a civilian was in the kitchen?
That’s exactly what I thought when I rewatched this scene for the first time!!! The fryer was literally in perfect view of the counter where people would pick up food
Being a Shyamalan movie you have to consider that this guy has an actual superpower (like in a comic book).. Like in the scene where he gets out from the car leaving behind the swat clothes.. It's probably the same narrative world of Unbreakable, Split and Glass.
Things that are in plain site are actually the hardest to see. Kinda like when you’re doing something you’re not supposed to and you feel like everyone’s looking at you but in fact nobody is even paying any attention.
I've got a feeling this is going to be the second film in a trilogy like Unbreakable, Split and Glass. Cole Seer from the Sixth Sense will be in the next film.
Nah, Trap is obviously part of the universe, but it's the FIRST movie of a trilogy. You're going too far with the 6th sense theory Bruce Willis already played a different character from David Dunn in the Sixth sense, and his character DIED...it'd make no sense.
This dude obviously has psychic SUPERPOWERS : he can hypnotize people, make them lowkey ignore him, locate hidden items, and even make cameras glitch ! Look how after he gave her the password to make her less defiant, the female agent stops blinking ! He's HYPNOTIZED her. And she's actually the same agent who closes the door of the SWAT van at the end of the movie (probably leaving the door unlocked for him) Also, notice how at the end of this scene, when he looks back, there are like 15 agents on the roof ! That's because the ones he was hiding from with his powers weren't showed until now, to make us understand how he feels when he's in his stealth mode : Shyamalan wasn't showing us the agents who didn't notice him (AKA : MOST of them) Cooper has psychic powers, and it's a sequel to Glass. Prove me wrong.
Is there any chance that Cooper is a part of the Glass universe? He is very strong, even for a firefighter, cunning, manipulative, intelligent and has a traumatic past, at least from his perspective. But, unlike the other 3 protagonists, he is sternly driven by emotions.
I wonder why didn't he just walked out the front door after everthing was over. Like they don't know what he really looks like or asked the star for a ride but make an excuse like the mom had to take the car.
I don't think you watched the movie properly it was clearly mentioned every male attending will be checked and one of them is butcher and only Lady Ravens close people were allowed to go outside that's why he blackmailed her since he was backstage that was the only way to get out .
No offense, but that will be a serious let down if they just make him another serial killer stereotype in the sequel. The movie's first half works because during the concert scenes, he's not being a serial killer - no, he's being Jason Bourne (but slow-paced). The knowledge of his identity as a vicious psychotic serial killer made the context unique; and seeing him crank his brain-gears trying to think of a escape route kept us hooked.
This movie has so much potential, especially from Josh Harnett long coming back. It's Shame M.Night daughter screen time is too much. Maybe that's the idea, to promote his daughter.
Those who didn't know it was his daughter didn't have ANY problems with her screen time. Smart adults perceive cinema as cinema, and think from its essence to its form)

There were too many do not make sense scenes. I like creative smart ideas, but not like this unexplainable like throwing bottles into the oil, sneaked out of the car and so..
"show don't tell" Cooper's reaction (immediately after his vision of his mother) to Raven's words about forgiving those who hurt you speaks for itself. And this is the beginning of the film.
The amount of money this studio is spending on marketing is doubly shocking after having seen it. A plot so filled with holes, and besides Josh, a truly mediocre cast, I can't believe somebody approved a budget for this weak sauce.
Watch the movie again, keeping in mind Cooper might have psychic SUPERPOWERS. (Hypnosis, stealth aura, making cameras glitch) You'll see it all makes sense.

It's cool how the code is Hamilton since that's where this movie was filmed at First Ontario place. Also part of it was filmed in Toronto.
i honestly think it would have been better if they contained the movie to just the concert venue
100% would have saved the entire movie
Exactly. I was actually invested in the stuff that was going on at the concert. But once they left the concert, the movie just went downhill
I watched a coworker get sprayed with hot oil and it’s way worse than this. Her skin just fell off where it touched
Heh. So all they had to do was not show her on that stretcher and it would have been more accurate.
Also I’m sorry to hear you witnessed it. :(
