I looked this movie up on "Rotten Tomatoes" movie review website. It got like a 40% positive rating from the critics, and about 95% positive review from viewers. I wonder what the critics didn't like? I'll need to look at their comments, but sometimes the critics are way off. I watched the trailer for the movie, and it looked pretty intense.

It has God v Satan overtones running through the movie and even points out in one place that Satan is winning the battle. Most of the souls here on earth belong to Satan by default, because they don't belong to the Carpenter. I doubt critics like that kind of talk.
It's not a feel good movie. At one point a priest is brought in, who doesn't believe in demons, and the prisoner just laughs at him, stating that if you don't believe in the devil there is no way you can claim to understand God. The psychiatrist claims to be an atheist, and claims that since he is an atheist, he is immune to such beliefs about God or Satan.
The demon just totally starts fucking with him at that point, and by the end of the movie has taken possession of him too.
It is like the Exorcist. Except the Devil wins in this one.

Figured i'd give this movie a shot since Tom Hanks is a great actor. IMO, he is a complete nutjob with politics, but I like his movies, at least when they have nothing to do with politics.
So I get exactly an hour into the movie.........and it happened!
Had to throw in a transgender character, then it just got stupid. It would have been a decent boring movie if they left out the BS, if that makes sense. They always wait until you are a good bit into the movie before throwing this shit in your face.
TWO THUMBS DOWN!

Then you will LOVE IT!
Nahhhh, sucks. That is why there are so few good movies/shows. They have forced diversity/ inclusion, Now Cleopatra is black ect. This does not show real life but is there for the sake of being there. It cheapens and ruins the art.
Hell if you look at commercials now and had to make a consensus on the demographic of the USA you would think 80% of the people are black, Latino or Asian and a big % are trannys. Not real life. In fact...a horror show.
Only movie I wanna see is the new Guardians of the galaxy. I hear it is better than the 2nd and as good as the first.
