I think it's honestly meant to reflect on the mental state of denial many mothers go through when they discover their child is a killer, etc. His downfall into continuing killing starts like the traditional serial killer. Likes gore, harms animals, no empathy or remorce, and moves on to people.
Doesnt even take that...how many times have you heard on the news "My baby would never harm anyone" in a story about a guy being arrested for murder, burglery and other shit.
I actually find the mom's actions very interesting, from like a psychology perspective. She's so desperate to have a family that she dismisses everything odd about Brandon, explaining or excusing it away, pretty much right up to the end. It's a very blinded version of a mother's love, tragic in a way
I like how this movie (unlike the superman movies) accurately depicts what actually happens when something indestructible comes flying at you at top speed
Superman has his own gravity and some sort of electromagnetic force field. How do you think he flies up under falling people and catches them without outright ripping right through them.
What I personally like about how they show Brandon's use of powers is how feral they are. Normally with superheroes, you see them using fighting techniques for out of the box thinking to defeat their opponent using their powers. But with Brandon, it's almost feral with his usage. It's brutal, quick, and messy, which would be obvious for a child who hasn't had any experience fighting. But it's still a cool thing to see and a nice change to how powers are used.
As someone who's mothers used to be in denial over their sibling not being who they used to be anymore Tori's actions and reactions are actually pretty accurate to me

Chris' Channel Him never bleeding doesn’t mean he can’t die. I mean have you ever heard of a drowned victim? Oxygen starved victim? How about people dying in bed? Organs can be shut down. Sure the kid can’t bleed but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have regular organs that work like anyone else’s. So as best as the father could do he tried killing him with a bullet. As we the audience know that won’t kill him the father doesn’t and that was his best shot at trying to kill him. What else was he supposed to do? Just let his son kill or have his son just kill him without trying to do anything. What would you have done in that moment without any of the knowledge you have over Superman? He doesn’t even know he got cut by the meteor thing either so that’s out of the options. Even Xenomorphs are susceptible to bullets. The Father was most likely hoping that he could still kill him by shooting his brain, I mean have you ever heard of shooting someone in the head? Yes he can’t bleed but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have organs functioning like our own. Remember the audience knowing things doesn’t mean character choices are stupid because they don’t know said things. Lastly the father knows a gun can kill and he’s killed with it before. He’s not going to go all Tcm on the boy because why do that when you can have a gun that works even better with a better explanation to why he has a gun instead of a chainsaw. He knows guns can kill and that’s all he really has to use so it’s like a last stand situation.
Her not acknowledging her kid's evilness isn't her just be unaware. It's the, "My child would never bully your kid! You're lying!" parent taken to the extreme of making excuses for a supervillain. She's in denial for most of the movie and only after he's murdered his own father and has absolute proof from his own notebooks he's responsible for everything does she accept reality.
Ok but she should have at least questioned it a _little bit._ There's a big difference between the child you gave birth to and the one you plucked out of a red glowing spaceship/meteor. xD
It's all just motherly instinct. She desperately wants to hold onto the idea that her little space baby could just be a normal kid. She DEFINITELY knows somethings up but just keeps giving him the benefit of the doubt
If his spaceship landed in Japan, he would have been raised by a monk named Gohan dropping him from a mountain hitting his head became a good boy and taught him martial arts

Doesn’t matter what type, the thing that should’ve cut his hand or whatever (been a while) earlier should’ve tipped him off. Plus he’s an alien. Idk what the logic is about people trying to shoot at things when it clearly won’t work (such as robots)
@@gvan11ian with robots they're built by man, unless otherwise. And there are weapons that can destroy strong alloys like such, plus no one as of right now. Is having the insane thought of creating extremely durable robots, because what do you do when they revolt?
@@DondonII In any media when robots revolt or say something like iron man or even Hulk, they just use simple bullets, see it doesn’t work, and keep using them.
People have said they would've preferred if he wasn't a sleeper agent but honestly that's the most unique thing Brandon has going for him compared to other evil supermen. Outside of maybe Homelander being a lab baby.
Also in the beginning of the movie when his Biology class talks about the difference between bees and wasps and Brandon gives a long explanation about how some sorts of wasps lay their eggs in other insects nests so they would be raised by them and after growing up they take those nests for themselves it was a huge foreshadowing for his fate because that seems to be exactly what his kind does
I think this movie fails to capture the nuance this type of story requires I would've liked it better if he wasn't a sleeper agent but just a kid with godlike powers doing whatever the fuck he wants because nobody can stop him or hell have him have a bad upbringing anything is better than the severely overused sleeper agent plot
Father:Just got shoved hard enough to shatter an entire furniture to mere pieces by a 12 year old kid Mother: How could brandon kill Noah and make it look like an accident
I would have liked this movie so much more if they dropped the whole alien sleeper agent angle. There was no outside influence. Maybe Brandon's real parents had nothing but innocent intentions. I think it's just far more frightening to think of what would happen if a child with godlike powers came to a simple realization: no one in the entire world can ever tell him no.
Agreed, not the biggest fan of the use of mind control or possession in most stories. It just seems much more interesting if characters act of their own beliefs and volitions
While that is true, I think it’s more than that. I like the story “Irredeemable” for this because it tackles an evil superman very well, it was the influences and upbringing that defines everything about an individual. Superman’s heroics are only second to the heroism that his parents gave to him, I think that it’s a better story if the parents were assholes and so this god grew up to be one too
Well personally thats what i think makes a grounded horror. I think you mean dumb decisions for the sake of convience like the mother here refusing to acknowledge how messed up her kid is. My favourite horror is Strangers Prey at Night (unpopular I know). I thought all the dumb decisions made sense in that film like the son losing the gun because he placed on the table so he could bandage his sister's arm and then the killer rams a truck through the trailer knocking the table down and the gun is someone amongst the carnage but they dont have time to find it due to the killer. Dumb characters are a core team in horror but they have to have an understandable reason of why they do stupid things.
The ironic thing is that at the end, she actually might have been able to talk him down and bring him back to the light since he shows that he still loves her and is willing to listen, but because she tried to kill him, she basically ruined any chance of that.
Everyone is shitting on Tori but like 😭 I understand her character. She believed the universe gifted her a baby and saw him as a miracle. He was her son and she loved him unconditionally like any mother would. I mean she raised him and got to know him for 12 years. So I think it makes perfect sense she was in denial for so long
"The kid has never bled a day in his life here!" "Okay, got him out hunting. Time to use this gun which I already stated won't work at all. Good plan."
MrAcrum what else could he do in this situation? He doesn’t exactly have any Halo-style energy weapons lying around. MAYBE he could’ve grabbed a piece of the ship/meteor thing, but he probably overlooked it in his distressed mindset
Someone had to try something at least. Needs to be a hero at some point in the movie. Can't just have every character acting like a total oblivious moron and letting him just do whatever the fuck.
Noahs kill was actually pretty cool, the way his mouth hits the wheel and then you see it detach while hes laying there helplessly watching Brandon walk up to him is something i wont forget for a while lol
Yeah that one was actually pretty gruesome, because it had some realism to it. And I've seen actual footage of soldiers in Afghanistan getting blown up from IEDs
I love how she literally needed to read a children's book and see the pictures to get the hint that maaaaybe it's her Alien son that was doing all the alien stuff.
You know the term “enabling” is anti-euphemistic. LoL. His parents were flat out clueless. They were humanly incapable of raising a good kid. This film is amazingly fitting for these times.
i think james gunn has said he is interested in bringing brightburn back , but at the moment he was busy working on the suicide squad(one less i guess) and guardians vol 3(still to be seen) so maybe after guardians 3 comes out we will see if brighburn does come back
I always felt this movie was an idea that never took off. I mean, the idea is "what if Superman was a psychopath" and it stayed there. There's no plot, no character development, no nothing. It's amazing how you know everything about this flick just by reading one sentence.
You don't need "character development" for a good story. What did you want? The boy to find empathy in the last moment and feel sorry? Would that made it better for you? The boy actually did have character development. He started out as a good boy and turned more and more into a total psycopath. The mother also eventually turned around and was willing to kill her child for the greater good. So yeah, character development was there. You just didn't like it. Also, you don't need a sad backstory of child abuse to justify a villains actions. Some people are just deranged psycopaths.
6:03, With how we tend to here Brandon's movement's, at least when he's not flying or interacting much with surfaces (as his flight allows him to move silently, while his speed walking later at the diner is audible), I'd say this was telekinesis. Given the electromagnetic interference and extreme temperatures he can cause with his presence, it seems to suggest that much like Brandon himself, his powers have as much in common with that of a Saiyan (or more specifically, Goku) from Dragon Ball as that of a Kryptonian from DC Comics, as the former are able to generate energy and affect their environment (and themselves) with their minds to a degree, but the main reason they and other Dragon Ball characters tend to not use it combatively is due to concentration, as it's relatively far easier for them to focus on their own bodies and movements (hence their enhanced physicalities and ability to fly) than that of whatever external thing they are focusing on. And even more interestingly than that is that there is another original supervillain origin film called Chronicle with characters that are explicitly telekinetic. That or he’s just using his flight to move fast enough to close the laptop and leave before being seen the way he got behind the police woman from outside the house in a matter of seconds without a sound.
Tori : Perhaps we should see a specialist? Talk about it? Kyle: To tell him what? Hello, we found our son in a fuc**** spaceship in the woods? Yeah… I kinda agree with him there. lol
"How can he kill him and make it look like a car accident" This is the same words from a person who literally saw him float, took him from a crater in an alien space ship. lol
Not to mention she literally just saw her son shove her grown husband into glass so hard that it shattered but making murder look like a car accident no that's so unbelievable(sarcasm)
Im not going to say that they were stellar parents, but they were by no means bad. In fact, the Dad was actually pretty realistic. He did figure it out quickly, even if he could have done something else to avoid the eventual disaster. The Mom was as you expect a mother to be, that being stubbornly hanging on to hope that she didnt raise a monster, but she did also find the actual way to kill Brandon. Thing is, she was too late. Their main problem was that they didnt communicate. If the Mom had accepted that her son was up to something wicked, maybe she couldve reasoned with him before he went too far, perhaps even sit him down and tell him straight up about his origins rather than tell him spur of the moment when he is on an emotional roller coaster as it is. Failing that, she couldve told the Dad that the evil space ball thing managed to cut Brandon and make him bleed, especially since the Dad had mentioned that Brandon never had right before this. He could very well have melted someone that down into a bullet and actually succeeded in killing Brandon when they went hunting. The biggest failing everyone had was not communicating. That goes for the Aunt not telling the Sheriff as well and the Uncle not talking to the Aunt before speeding away and then dying.
@@imapopo2924 I mean, wouldn't the uncle and aunt both die if the uncle went back to the house? The uncle would have alerted the aunt which would of made Brandon kill both so nobody knew that he was evil
The scariest part to me is how Brandon’s mom is so unwilling to see the truth until it’s too late I’ve seen that sort of thing happen irl, people who can’t handle reality and will ignore any amount of evidence... it’s scary, like talking to someone with a brain parasite
Brandon came to save the world, humans like you just forgot that that the world doesn’t revolve around humanity, even as humanity does its best to abuse it and force it to.
Thought I’d note this at the beginning of the video before the kills: I love the intros James, hearing your thoughts and all the behind the scenes stuff draws me in every time. Don’t let some negative feedback dissuade you, I’m in it for all the content, not just the bloody goodness. Stay awesome.
I think this movie would have been much more successful if it was made like 10 years earlier because back then superhero movies were still a fresh sub-genre and people were more receptive to new and different ideas like this one, I heard James Gunn actually wanted BrightBurn to have it’s own Universe and make a franchise out of it or something but I guess now he is working at the DC reboot he is going to get way too busy the next few years to worry about this, or maybe he will remember it and give it a sequel when he gets some free time from Warner, time will tell
As someone who lives in and has grown up in Kansas, I can confirm that this happens probably twice a year. We’re really tired of getting alien super heros and villains in our fields, so maybe the coasts could take one for the team and take the next one?
"I've got an original idea for a movie!" "Whatcha got?" "What if Superman was- you're going to love this- EVIL???? Dun dun dun!" "...You have got to be the most insane person to ever say it. Take the money, make the movie."
She let him down emotionally so he let her down literally EDIT: I just found out there was another comment of this I’m sorry didn’t mean to take it Ano a d a edit 999 likes rn
That does prove that he is just overtaken by a program or something because he loves her mother and knows he could have easily dodged that and just let her be. Instead the program saw it has threat to the host and removed the threat.
There was nothing she could have done to stop him Brandon from going full evil at that point. If anything I feel like Brandon was gonna let her live peacefully alone because he did love her but once she tried to kill him he said aight you're dying too. He did love her right before that moment tho
Even though most of the people in horror movies that are terrible get killed like Annie Wilkes from Misery, I feel sad and bad about it but this is the black sheep of the bunch, Brandon was just a narcissistic tapeworm A-hole that fell out the sky.
With the amount of time they talk about bugs during his school scenes and Brandon's encyclopedic knowledge of the subject. I like to think that if Brightburn is an inversion of superman, then it also makes sense that he was sent to earth for a more nefarious purpose. Like an insectoid race of conquerers who genetically alter their young to look like inhabitants of other planets and then launch them onto said planets to act as sleeper agents who would be raised by the locals until they're activated by their ships at a certain age and go into conquer mode

Shooting Brandon was like the dumbest part
“He’s never gotten hurt in his life, this gun should do the trick”
Dude that's literally a frickin sniper it doesn't compare to playground hurts
Doesn’t matter what type, the thing that should’ve cut his hand or whatever (been a while) earlier should’ve tipped him off. Plus he’s an alien. Idk what the logic is about people trying to shoot at things when it clearly won’t work (such as robots)
He should have said "I KNEW IT"
@@gvan11ian with robots they're built by man, unless otherwise. And there are weapons that can destroy strong alloys like such, plus no one as of right now. Is having the insane thought of creating extremely durable robots, because what do you do when they revolt?
@@DondonII In any media when robots revolt or say something like iron man or even Hulk, they just use simple bullets, see it doesn’t work, and keep using them.
Movie: *has a whole plane blow up*
James: *Now this looks like a job for me*
So everybody just follow me
Lucas Schuldaski cause we need a little controversy
Wait really people dislike how evil Brandon is? Quite Frankly I like the fact that he is like an evil sleeper agent here to take over the planet.
People have said they would've preferred if he wasn't a sleeper agent but honestly that's the most unique thing Brandon has going for him compared to other evil supermen.
Outside of maybe Homelander being a lab baby.
Oh, so it's more like "What if Goku did end up fulfilling his mission to subjugate humanity... and also had Superman's powers."
no, no, not take over. to TAKE it. as in destroy.
Also in the beginning of the movie when his Biology class talks about the difference between bees and wasps and Brandon gives a long explanation about how some sorts of wasps lay their eggs in other insects nests so they would be raised by them and after growing up they take those nests for themselves it was a huge foreshadowing for his fate because that seems to be exactly what his kind does
I think this movie fails to capture the nuance this type of story requires I would've liked it better if he wasn't a sleeper agent but just a kid with godlike powers doing whatever the fuck he wants because nobody can stop him or hell have him have a bad upbringing anything is better than the severely overused sleeper agent plot

@@GhanaianJammer no
so being Super Smart isn't part of Brandon's package?
I would have liked this movie so much more if they dropped the whole alien sleeper agent angle. There was no outside influence. Maybe Brandon's real parents had nothing but innocent intentions. I think it's just far more frightening to think of what would happen if a child with godlike powers came to a simple realization: no one in the entire world can ever tell him no.
Lol well they could tell him no but more like being helplessness in the face of a psychopath demi god
Agreed, not the biggest fan of the use of mind control or possession in most stories. It just seems much more interesting if characters act of their own beliefs and volitions
While that is true, I think it’s more than that. I like the story “Irredeemable” for this because it tackles an evil superman very well, it was the influences and upbringing that defines everything about an individual. Superman’s heroics are only second to the heroism that his parents gave to him, I think that it’s a better story if the parents were assholes and so this god grew up to be one too
We have tha tin real life. Its called Teenager who know Everything.
Hmm that's homelander
I hate movies where character ignorance litters the entire film.
It should end when Brandon dies or get a rich man to fight him with a amor
So basically you hate horror movies?
@@logansmith8147 not really hate
Well personally thats what i think makes a grounded horror. I think you mean dumb decisions for the sake of convience like the mother here refusing to acknowledge how messed up her kid is. My favourite horror is Strangers Prey at Night (unpopular I know). I thought all the dumb decisions made sense in that film like the son losing the gun because he placed on the table so he could bandage his sister's arm and then the killer rams a truck through the trailer knocking the table down and the gun is someone amongst the carnage but they dont have time to find it due to the killer. Dumb characters are a core team in horror but they have to have an understandable reason of why they do stupid things.
@@j.murray5656 well it's the mom fault to adopt Brandon
The ironic thing is that at the end, she actually might have been able to talk him down and bring him back to the light since he shows that he still loves her and is willing to listen, but because she tried to kill him, she basically ruined any chance of that.

Everyone is shitting on Tori but like 😭 I understand her character. She believed the universe gifted her a baby and saw him as a miracle. He was her son and she loved him unconditionally like any mother would. I mean she raised him and got to know him for 12 years. So I think it makes perfect sense she was in denial for so long
"The kid has never bled a day in his life here!"
"Okay, got him out hunting. Time to use this gun which I already stated won't work at all. Good plan."
YEAH! It Worked- OH SH
He is dead yay- OH FUC-
Yeah... common sense 😒😤
MrAcrum what else could he do in this situation? He doesn’t exactly have any Halo-style energy weapons lying around. MAYBE he could’ve grabbed a piece of the ship/meteor thing, but he probably overlooked it in his distressed mindset
Someone had to try something at least. Needs to be a hero at some point in the movie. Can't just have every character acting like a total oblivious moron and letting him just do whatever the fuck.

I always felt this movie was an idea that never took off. I mean, the idea is "what if Superman was a psychopath" and it stayed there. There's no plot, no character development, no nothing. It's amazing how you know everything about this flick just by reading one sentence.
They’ve certainly made horror movies out of less before
and you know, that's been done several times. Omniman and Homelander as examples
What if Superman was a Psychopath??? Injustice???
You don't need "character development" for a good story. What did you want? The boy to find empathy in the last moment and feel sorry? Would that made it better for you? The boy actually did have character development. He started out as a good boy and turned more and more into a total psycopath. The mother also eventually turned around and was willing to kill her child for the greater good. So yeah, character development was there. You just didn't like it.
Also, you don't need a sad backstory of child abuse to justify a villains actions. Some people are just deranged psycopaths.
"What if Superman was evil" Has been made to death it's gotten stale
6:03, With how we tend to here Brandon's movement's, at least when he's not flying or interacting much with surfaces (as his flight allows him to move silently, while his speed walking later at the diner is audible), I'd say this was telekinesis. Given the electromagnetic interference and extreme temperatures he can cause with his presence, it seems to suggest that much like Brandon himself, his powers have as much in common with that of a Saiyan (or more specifically, Goku) from Dragon Ball as that of a Kryptonian from DC Comics, as the former are able to generate energy and affect their environment (and themselves) with their minds to a degree, but the main reason they and other Dragon Ball characters tend to not use it combatively is due to concentration, as it's relatively far easier for them to focus on their own bodies and movements (hence their enhanced physicalities and ability to fly) than that of whatever external thing they are focusing on. And even more interestingly than that is that there is another original supervillain origin film called Chronicle with characters that are explicitly telekinetic. That or he’s just using his flight to move fast enough to close the laptop and leave before being seen the way he got behind the police woman from outside the house in a matter of seconds without a sound.
Brightburn. In another universe, General Zod has a son and sends him to Earth. Lol

Not to mention she literally just saw her son shove her grown husband into glass so hard that it shattered but making murder look like a car accident no that's so unbelievable(sarcasm)
It actually infuriates me how much potential this movie has, and how much potential was wasted
But the kills were decent
The whole plot of brightburn: B A D P A R E N T I N G
How he was a sleeper agent
Im not going to say that they were stellar parents, but they were by no means bad. In fact, the Dad was actually pretty realistic. He did figure it out quickly, even if he could have done something else to avoid the eventual disaster. The Mom was as you expect a mother to be, that being stubbornly hanging on to hope that she didnt raise a monster, but she did also find the actual way to kill Brandon. Thing is, she was too late.
Their main problem was that they didnt communicate. If the Mom had accepted that her son was up to something wicked, maybe she couldve reasoned with him before he went too far, perhaps even sit him down and tell him straight up about his origins rather than tell him spur of the moment when he is on an emotional roller coaster as it is. Failing that, she couldve told the Dad that the evil space ball thing managed to cut Brandon and make him bleed, especially since the Dad had mentioned that Brandon never had right before this. He could very well have melted someone that down into a bullet and actually succeeded in killing Brandon when they went hunting.
The biggest failing everyone had was not communicating. That goes for the Aunt not telling the Sheriff as well and the Uncle not talking to the Aunt before speeding away and then dying.
have you watched the movie....
@@imapopo2924 I mean, wouldn't the uncle and aunt both die if the uncle went back to the house? The uncle would have alerted the aunt which would of made Brandon kill both so nobody knew that he was evil
Still this kid was a sociopath
I've never seen this video until I saw a RUclips short and then tried to find the full clip so thanks for making this video like 3 years ago lmao

I’ve seen that sort of thing happen irl, people who can’t handle reality and will ignore any amount of evidence... it’s scary, like talking to someone with a brain parasite
It’s not totally his fault for being evil everything he did was a direct result of other ppl

@Emerald- Brawl Stars yessss

I think this movie would have been much more successful if it was made like 10 years earlier because back then superhero movies were still a fresh sub-genre and people were more receptive to new and different ideas like this one, I heard James Gunn actually wanted BrightBurn to have it’s own Universe and make a franchise out of it or something but I guess now he is working at the DC reboot he is going to get way too busy the next few years to worry about this, or maybe he will remember it and give it a sequel when he gets some free time from Warner, time will tell
This movie absolutely wouldve popped off in the late 2000s

I think Brandon’s mom actually could of guided him to better morals in that moment, but then she tried to kill him so he was like alright F you
That does prove that he is just overtaken by a program or something because he loves her mother and knows he could have easily dodged that and just let her be. Instead the program saw it has threat to the host and removed the threat.
There was nothing she could have done to stop him Brandon from going full evil at that point. If anything I feel like Brandon was gonna let her live peacefully alone because he did love her but once she tried to kill him he said aight you're dying too. He did love her right before that moment tho
Even though most of the people in horror movies that are terrible get killed like Annie Wilkes from Misery, I feel sad and bad about it but this is the black sheep of the bunch, Brandon was just a narcissistic tapeworm A-hole that fell out the sky.
