The Watchers (2024) - Movie Review

I am interested in the Fae and there are not a lot of films about them that realistically reflect the lore, i.e.powerful, clearly having their own agenda, not here for our benefit, and sometimes sneaky and not very nice at all (in other words, not Tinkerbell). It is an incredibly niche subject and is usually only heard about in YouTube videos of octogenarian Irish folk telling experiential tales from their youth. I didn't see the film for thrills particularly, but rather to see what the subject taken on in a more mainstream fashion would be like. I was curious, and I found it interesting. I didn't mind the exposition for that reason. I agree that every character was a bit, or maybe more than a bit, of an arse, and some were not developed at all. However, it was fine. Not perfect but I didn't consider it a waste of £12.

The Book was pretty mid to bad writing so Im not surprised the movie isnt good lmao. Sounds like the movie was pretty faithful to the book; I more blame the people that read the book and were like yeah lets make a movie. Good video!

i liked the look and most of cast. I did not like anything else much.

Exposition Dump: the Movie. Man, I can’t believe I paid $20 to see this.
