Atom User Reviews
good storyline but could of been executed better
It gets 5 stars for what it was a comedy it wasn’t meant to be scary and it wasn’t. It was funny and the jokes and plot twists were 90s teen movie reminiscent. I’d buy it on dvd and put it right between mean girls and he heathers.
Metacritic
Worst of all, it wastes the meta-idea that a lot of horror films are basically like “Groundhog Day” to an extent, as we watch relatively indistinguishable counselors at Camp Crystal Lake, for example, get killed again and again.
Thankfully never taking itself too seriously, the latest Jason Blum-produced comedy-thriller is happy to carve out its spot as the horror-themed, millennial-focused Groundhog Day, and to have fun doing so. A dynamic lead performance and a willingness to keep things short and snappy also ensure viewers won’t mind venturing into rehash territory.
Happy Death Day twists the inherent repetitiveness of slashers to its advantage by exaggerating it to an impossible degree.
