Blumhouse's Truth Or Dare 2018 Online Review From Everywhere

Image
Movie Description: A harmless game of "Truth or Dare" among friends turns deadly when someone--or something--begins to punish those who tell a lie--or refuse the dare. Is This Version Of "Truth Or Dare" Worth Your Time!? Good Points: -  There are some sloppy rules and failed emotional beats, but if you're a genre fan watching Truth or Dare for the clever concept and inventive kill scenes, there's some fun to be had with this Blumhouse release. -  It's a fun watch.

Movie Description: Lauren (Christina Ricci) and Russel Curran (Brendan Fletcher) decide to move away from the bustle of the city and into the peaceful oasis of The Pinnacle, a coveted luxury condo boasting ultra-modern design, state-of-the-art features and security systems. Lauren begins to suspect the building has a dark side and seeks the help of Vernon (John Cusack), an investigative journalist with an interest in cyber conspiracy. Together, they come to believe that The Pinnacle may be brainwashing unsuspecting residents. Check Out Some Comments Before Spending Your time Before Watching It: Good Points: -  A slick and gripping psychological thriller that fizzles out by the end. Christina Ricci's raw, convincingly moving performance is one of the best of her career which somewhat compensates for the screenplay's lack of emotional depth. Bad Points: -  "Distorted" plays one too many tricks, and its casting is abysmal. -  All told, Distorted do...
