I thought it was interesting. I would have loved to see what the aliens really looked like. The closest was when the kid was impersonating who gave him the book. I wish the girl would have decoded the book a little bit unravelling the mystery. It was strange and original, which I love.
It was a partial glimpse of a Cuckoo chick’s neck/face morphing out of the human boy. Go look at the birds in the early part of the film and more footage of Cuckoo chick life cycle if you need..
The “alien” is a sort of cuckoo or equivalent ‘being’ deploying the same tactics as a Cuckoo does to other species of birds who’s nests they hatch in.. it’s pretending to be the same species as the parents (humans) so they put all their resources in to raising it.. literally ALL their resources.. raising a Cuckoo chick as a much smaller bird parent can work them to death..
He literally dug their own grave. It’s like they knew he would do it. This movie was creepy af.
Keosha Watkins That was morbid as fu€k!! Thanks for the great comment and stay safe 🎥🖤
It's very heavy handed like that. I think they're in purgatory. And if they're not and it's an observation of them then who fucking is conducting the test, heaven or hell?
Its a metaphor for the lifestyle most of us live.
@@drewviz5102 I think it's more of a parenting message. I have an 8 year old daughter and that's what I took from it, brutally honest depiction of how parenting can feel hopeless and helpless at times.
Andrew Vistal What did he see at the bottom of the hole? I’m so curious. A skeleton?
I just got done watching it. Really liked it. The boy is weird as hell. Definitely need more movies like this.
Loved this movie...Imoegen Potts was fantastic...Kid was creepy...I felt bad for .jesse Eisenberg Dude was digging his own grave The ending was great... Watch this movie Yall.....Stay safe!!!
little did he know he was digging his own grave and his “son” would be the new worker in the end to repeat. insane
the movie commits the sin of setting up a mystery, promising to solve it (through a line said my Imogen Poots character), and doesn't reveal the mystery by the end. The writer set this all up and didn't have the balls to give us a proper ending, and instead just leaves us to "discuss" about it. What a cop out.
As much as I agree with the ending being left for discussion, does every ending need an explanation? I mean most movies are so "dumbed down" these days I found it refreshing that I actually had to think about what might be happening instead of having it spoon fed to me like so many movies do......But I appreciate your opinion, and thanks for the great comment
This movie is an exercise in writing complacency and laziness. It started with an interesting premise but ends without a satisfying conclusion. Most pretentious movie reviewers will love this since they believe leaving an ambiguous ending is somehow more "artistic". There a damn good movies out there without an "in your face" ending but this isn't one of them. These Aliens have been kidnaped people at least 8,000 times, that was the number on the receipt stapled to Martins bodybag. A vivarium is a replication of a particular animal/fish natural surroundings, i.e. aquarium/terrarium. The female character, after chasing the creepy 30 yr old 5 yr old (hope that makes sense) fell through whichever barrier separates each vivarium from the others taking place at the same moment in time (all the funky transitions in the house). Jesse Eisenberg found one of the prior "guest" bodybags while digging the hole.
His death was WEAK as was hers, healthy young people don't just drop dead. Secondly, it was obvious from the onset that the "child" was unearthly and quite frankly I would have pick-axed the shit out of that kid early on. Dude, sorry about the rant #quarantine. I could go on but I've probably tortured you enough with this novel-length comment. Cheers.
@@andrewrodriguez4463 No need to say sorry, I value your opinion and the thoughts you have on this movie, thats the great thing about the genre is that there are so many widely different feelings and opinions.........please feel free to chime in on more of my reviews......I look forward to it.........H
Andrew Rodriguez I agree with you. I mean I love theTwilight Zone so I thought this would be up my alley.
It was for the most part.... I found it not as boring as others thought. I found it entertaining. But with that said.... I didn’t like the ending at all. I thought I’d get a decent explanation for what all that was and most of all..... WHY? Lol
But I like movie discussions and debates and this sure sparked one 😺
@@andrewrodriguez4463 you kind of explained what you think is going on unlike the person who posted the vid. who apparently said nothing worthy as far as the title of the video is concerned.
spoiler but also just my opinion
the entire town is a pocket dimension designed by a probably higher dimensional being or a being who has complete control of the dimension. the area is infinite with infinite being relative to the dimension itself, there is no bottom to dig to and no height above it. this also explains why they can drive so far but not get anywhere because technically its only like 4 blocks or so. when the grown boy lifts the concrete that was always technically possible although either the boy is super strong or he has the ability to alter the vibration of the dimension thus moving within it however he wants. the other couples that gemma sees are happening at around the same time in other dimensions although time is relative at this level. the fact that he dug his own grave shows that the aliens either knew this was coming as they exist outside of the dimension therefore outside of its time constraints, or they are super incompetent which isn't much of a stretch, considering the type of technology needed to create your own pocket dimension and already semi infiltrate another planet, needing to learn about the species is childs play and pretty pointless. i guess if you were trapped there you would need to get to the point that the child gets the book and you'd have to take months figuring out how to dissect their language if not years. at which point you would learn of their ambitions and maybe be able to reason with them because like i said they are showing they are kinda stupid in certain aspects.
Zack DiPaolo Wow!!! Great comment, thanks for adding that 🎥🖤
#9 in Chinese culture symbolizes “forever”
why 9?? 8 is forever in chinese.. CMIIW
reza kwon I was thinking of the Beatles song in which one of them says “Number 9...Number 9...Number 9”.I don’t know which Beatles song that is,but maybe there’s some type of connection.
reza kwon 8 is fortune in chinese.
This movie has nothing tied to Chinese culture tho
Okay, so, my analysis after just watching this movie (SPOILERS!!):
While I agree with the idea that this movie is about conditioning, I also believe the strongest idea in the entire thing is that of the cuckoo bird, a bird notorious for identity theft. The child (cuckoo) invades the home, demanding to be fed and taken care of and screaming (like a bird call) when not attended to. It also mimics, which I'm pretty sure the bird does too. At the end, the couple's bodies are pushed in the hole like birds getting pushed out of the nest. Tom and Gemma are the baby birds and thus continues the cycle. Gemma begins to bond with the child earlier in the film too, much like a mother bird treating the cuckoo as one of her own.
The Older Boy also mentions that after he leaves, it is essentially her job to stop being a mother and die. This could also reflect on how societal values of getting a house and having a big family still put pressure on people today and force them into gender roles, eg. a woman is only good to raise a child and thus her role is depleted of value once they grow up. Humanity is still in a constant cycle, trapped in the housing market and expectations of others in our everyday lives. I feel like this is represented by the different levels Gemma passes through, symbolising the property ladder and how hard it is to find a way in today's economy.
Again, just an analysis and I could be looking at obvious metaphors only.
I loved every word on here. Great analysis!
@@kennythemasseuse agreed
aaah..an intelligent analysis on youtube for a change.Great interpretation,and i agree with you about the key details in the film
I did a great interview with the screenwriter of Vivarium, Garret Shanley, on my blog "Novelpro Junkie": novelpro.weebly.com/latest-news/interview-with-garret-shanley-screenwriter-of-vivarium After reading it, comment or share if you will. I'll appreciate it.
aroochie2000 🤣🙏🏼👏🏼
I honestly was really intrigued at the beginning. The movie immediately got intresting the acting was amazing and the quality overall was very well done. I just hoped that at the ending more couldve been done and explained. If they tried to kill the boy when he was young and what happened at the ending took place when tom put the kid in the car the movie couldve been wayyy more interesting.
I find it hard to get through most films without losing interest and turning it off halfway through but I sat through this one which says something I guess.
Its corona quarantine, thats all. Otherwise you had stuff to do! Am I right or am I right!
Only children can’t sit through movies. Grow the hell up
It started perfect !!!! i was waitin for its release since months but the ending was so lazy it kills it for me. Seems like the movie director had a great idea but didnt have explaination for it so he just gave up and shot what cames to his mind lol. Great cinematography good acting. Hope we'll get more like this but with smart ending.l
How would u personally end it ?
I would have saved the mother and made a twisted funny ending like the cabin in the woods ending or the hunt ending 😅🤣
It could of been much better. Its identical of the birds they buried at the beginning. Even when the kid screams is like the birds.
Yes, those scream is like the birds asking for food.
so it was build by alien?
I think the sidewalk lifting up was a ripple in time of the couples who got bamboozled in the past. I really liked the movie great metaphor for life and how we are working for a greater power of some sort.
It could be another time ripple or they're in the other houses and it's kinda like another dimension because she was able to see them and they were able to see her
Jamecia idk but it was a good movie maybe a part 2 to explain it a little further.
I guess the residential area is a metaphor for life. In it, you dig and dig until you realize that it is your own grave that you are digging (like the guy). You sacrifice and make sure that this process continues for the next generation (like the girl). And from the point of view of the species (the real-state guy) who put you there, you are just a rat lab and you must be studied. It is literally life, I guess.
Spot on. I thought the same as well. We are living in this Vivarium world that our life is already written like a script. We cannot get out. We are stuck no matter how we hard tried. The only thing that they could temporarily escape is the Volkswagen even without gas. The car has the smell that the couple liked. The music that they can dance. At the end of the day, they are still trapped with the mission to raise the child because they wanted to be released.
@@tomchan2559 You explained even better
I did a great interview with the screenwriter of Vivarium, Garret Shanley, on my blog "Novelpro Junkie": novelpro.weebly.com/latest-news/interview-with-garret-shanley-screenwriter-of-vivarium After reading it, comment or share if you will. I'll appreciate it.
I genuinely feel like this film is a cinematic masterpiece, such a bold and unique idea for a film! It had a fascinating plot with interesting characters that ultimately had a twisted but comprehensible payoff. True cinema!
I hate the way the girl cried. It was so dramatic and actually kinda creepy, she opened her mouth with saliva sticking up from her mouth and tears falling down. Ugh just looked so creepy
Maybe someone's already pondered on this but I'm thinking the Beatles song with the repeating, "Number 9. Number 9. Number 9." could have some connection. Maybe?
Mate this film was absolute gash, don’t waste your time watching this film guys
To not like it is one thing but at least give an explanation 👍
Just my opinion, boring, confusing, and that little kid who kept screaming was so annoying! Need I go on?
Ryan Cadman fair enough, I appreciate the comment, and thanks for checking out the review.....be safe out there 🎥👍
Happywax tv and you mate, subbed
Ryan Cadman This one of my favs movies totally recommending it.
I remember seeing the trailer and thinking this movie looked really interesting, the first act I thought was good but once Gemma started to care about ‘it’ it just got boring man, HEAVY SPOILERS AHEAD - - - -the scene where the older boy is crawling was pretty dope not gonna lie, saw the ending coming so I was hoping maybe the kid would give more hints about what it is. Would they really have been released if they just raised it? The food was tasteless and has for sure been tampered with, Tom getting sick could prob be from breathing in all the “dirt” but I think they were being poisoned
Bryton Up “Because that’s nature, that’s just the way things are...”
dude, they were "released", as in they were killed. That's what was always supposed to happen.
Dying is the release. Same as in our actual world.
In a nutshell: "Other" entities outsourcing homeschooling their progeny "Beyond" in a foster care system. :-)
Just finished watching it, and i was so disappointed. There is no way that there is reasonable explanation for it!!
Thanks man! Been waiting to hear your thoughts on this one, definitely will watch it soon! Can't wait, glad you loved it, looks right up my alley.
jason presti Yeah man I loved it surprisingly though there’s a lot of people that didn’t like this movie I can’t believe how many negative comments and dislikes my review about this movies getting I either gave a shitty review or people just aren’t smart enough to understand and figure out what’s going on in this movie I don’t know all I know is I loved it
@@happywaxtv4571 Yes, I am a little worried now as I am not a fan of "open-ended" films generally, but I'll still check it out.
Loved this movies thanks bro 🚬☁️
This movie comes closest to another movie The Incident (El Incidente). That one will blow your mind equally.
hopydaddy The trailer appeared very low budget which is what turned me off...
@@vickirosstudor490 , OK, but it was a good movie. This is the kind of mind-bending movie I like.
hopydaddy - I’ll watch it, you convinced me :)
You might go insane for a while after you watch it. Be careful...
Loved it. Gives us just enough information to draw our own conclusions in a good way. Did have a slow portion in the middle that'll lose a few people but I really dig thought provoking sci-fi horror.
Great movie. A couple parts were so messed up that I almost felt the pain in some areas. Thanks.
I think the significance of the #9 pertains to the 9 stages of life.
The relevancy with the number 9 is when they first drove into the neighborhood the billboard had a photo of a family standing at house #9 that’s the farthest I see it going unless anybody else knows more
It sucks. I like indie movie but something about this movie got me bored.
This fucking movie has me questioning my reality it’s like aliens are testing on us in some kind of goddamn simulation or labyrinth of some kind.
did i just get click baited?
I was looking for that movie primer... can you share a link
www.amazon.com/Primer-Shane-Carruth/dp/B00APQDPAQ
Yes that movie is da bomb !
Loved it all way through !
So what was the frog throat all about?
James Morris Aliens 👽
lol it's not a frog, it's made to look like a bird. It's possible some sort of alien bird is planting it's young in a nest and forcing humans to raise it
What's in the box!

the significance of the number 9 could also relate to dante’s descent through the nine levels of hell for the purpose of furthering themselves in life (dante’s does it to become stronger) (gemma and tom visit the house to further their lives together.
each level of hell also represents a sin similar to what happens throughout the film.
GREAT MOVIE!!!!!
I just finished watching this movie it was awesome it had me wondering the whole time if Aliens were observing them and if the boy was an alien cause when he became adult he lifted the ground and crawled underneath the house while making a weird sound I'm baffled I would like to talk with Lorcan lol
Merlissa Farrell I hope there’s a directors commentary when they release the Blu-ray
I think the writer is referring to the being as Shape shifting Reptilian humanoid. There is a conspiracy theory about Lizard men running our countries as leaders.
Tom Chan ahhh shhh with that cheese lizard shit lol
@@tomchan2559 lol
@Tezz man ss yes exactly
He’s a Cuckoo ffs...!!!! Arghhhh.. Come on people🙈
It’s even set up in the first few minutes for us.. Okayyy... okayyy.. I guess if you don’t know about the habit and life cycle of a Cuckoo then fair enough, but all that do will get this immediately.. I guess if you have no idea then probably you might not get it, but then again... watch the birds in the first few scenes of the film.. I only just finished watching it and my initial score is 5.5/10... however I think as I mull it over and replay the film in my head the next few days it may go up.. Due to early reviews from critics etc I probably had too high expectations for the film, but if you know the cuckoo story I think it totally debunks the mystery of the film and your suspense and confusion disappears like a deflating balloon, I reckon therefore some who didn’t get it originally will rate it quite highly but after learning the cuckoo thing your scores in many cases are going to drop. Love to hear what people think about my explanation, politeness only please 🤣😎👋🏼
j keham I definitely think you’re on to something my friend, I’ve actually had a few of my friends call me and say the same sorta thing!! Nicely done 🎥👍
Happywax tv Bless you, very kind. “Because that’s nature, that’s just the way things are...”
Happywax tv I love nature and studied it a fair bit so. To those who might have been intrigued by learning of the Cuckoo habit, perhaps it would inspire them to learn more about nature, because it sure is weird as hell the more you find out, it’s like a massive fantasy sci-fi world but actually real, I hope it does inspire some to become more interested in nature.. 🌱🕊🦚🦋
Looks interesting. Thank you for the review!
It's kinda looks like( in the tall grass) movie
yah indeed.
What was the deal with the curb scene followed by the colours. What's going on there?
Probably women falling throught floors. Example number 9. 9 nine could be floor. No matter which hause they Choose it's still 9.
Hay from Barrie On! Just finished this movie, I actually found it very good. The only thing that seemed off and out of place was the underground room by room part at the end. The scene between the two of them reminiscing on the front sidewalk made me think about the importance of human connection over the need for material objects.
Ok, let's hear your take then.
Im curious if u have watched the movie The Hunt? I know its not really horror but thought u may check it out. I watched it&curious on ur thoughts on it. Some people didn't like it mainly cause of the main character(blonde) girl but i think she done pretty good since that's how they wanted her character to be. But what's ur thoughts?? Oh and what is ur 1st name? I feel i write things to u all the time but don't even know ur name lol mine is Amy but I'm sure u knew that by my screen name.

Great review! I thought the number nine was a homage to the British television series called "Inside Number 9". The show is similar to twilight and using the number 9 in every episode as a reference to something. If you haven't watched it I highly recommend.

I liked this movie any recommendations? Of new movies like this ... and yes love the twilight zone👍
The chosen One You could try In the Tall Grass, it’s on Netflix but it’s not as good as this movie
Happywax tv thanks I’ll check it out
This movie was so weird that I couldn't stop watching it!! And after it was over I am thinking ......what a good movie!! It really makes you think!!
Best movie of 2020.
Just got finished watching the movie, I think it's weird so I had to see what other people thought of the movie
Deedee Modesty What did you think? Do you agree with my review? 🎥🖤
This movie was terrible.
Do a spoilers review
surreal horror ftw
i did not like what this movie says if it has a point
"Love Potion #9", song.
Are martins aliens what are they?
Number 9 reminds me of the Beatles...
Did you mean on The twilight zone seriese from 2019?
Stefan The original series, I own every episode 🎥🖤👍
@@happywaxtv4571 From 1959?
Stefan This movie isn’t actually a Twilight Zone episode , I just meant if could easily be an episode due to its odd story 🎥🖤
@@happywaxtv4571 I know. Just finished watching that movie. They ended up in some kind of parallel dimension, ruled by frog like reptilian beings. Interesting movie for sure. I never heard about twilight zone series before.
If you didn't watched Dragon Quest: Your story, I recommend you to watch.. Really good anime film, expecially ending..
Stefan I’ll check it out! 👍🎥
My original thought as to why the house number was chosen to be 9 is perhaps a reference to The Beatles song, Revolution 9 that begins with the lyric, "number 9" being repeated over and over again before a track that is largely unlistenable, but I believe says "get me out" when played backwards.
i really wanna know what is behind the movie and what is their real purpose , i assume they are aliens tho
what if, if they kill the baby what will happen.
Figured they would just get another one
Betty Kerner - That’s a good assumption. That or they are starved & forgotten.
This movie is ridiculous. It ties everything up in a neat little bow: He dug the hole so they could be buried in it. Neat. Done. Lame. Boring. Waste of time.
Am I the only one who thought they had an Abortion and are in hell for it? When they're in the place the boy keeps calling her mother, also it says if they raise him they will be released which they never are, as they never brought up the child in the real world.
Her job as the female was to be his mother and they did raise him to adult hood and they we released through death. They never said they would let them back into their real world they just said they will just be released
@@jamecia8550 hmm yeah but I was thinking about when they almost let him die in the car also, didn't really raise him properly
IamJohno true but I guess him not dying was good enough 🤷🏽♀️😂
this movie sucked. extremely predictable. anything that would have been interesting storywise was avoided for basic pointless mind game thriller tropes. not worth it.
What's with the doll store, because you're surroanded in toys, people is going to hear you?
...
Ha!
This is by far the worst movie I’ve ever seen in my life, worse than punch drunk love by a mile
