    That weird valley between never boring and yet never quite engaging. There’s a missing spark even if I thought individual elements worked.

    I love Bill Skarsgård and I’m watching a lot of his movies right now. Villains is really funny. I’m really sad that about the ending but it was so funny and I would definitely watch it

    We get four complex, fleshed out personalities, with four fantastic, very different performances that nail each. Full of sneaky twists, it's not what it initially appears; while it feels light and bubbly at times, it also gets dark and bleak and sweet.

    Characters were well rounded and the actors did well but it was just a lot of nothing plot. They seemed scared to lean into the comedy which they absolutely should have and the horror level was like the fruit flavor in a la croix

    It’s definitely not a bad movie. The actors, while I love them, just all seemed uncomfortable with each other on screen.

    I watched this while making dinner but what I got from this wasn’t necessarily a bad viewing experience. I enjoyed the chemistry and performances of all the actors involved but ithas a fairly straight forward premise so I don’t think the average viewer will have their mind blown.

Berk and Olsen’s script only skims the surface of what is really going on here, and yet Villains remains a delightfully slick dip in the shallow end of the pool. You may leave wanting a longer swim, but enjoy the sick fun while it lasts.

With a surprising amount of side laughs and an isolated, elaborately decorated chamber in the woods full of opportunities, Villains sets an intriguing stage for a quartet of skilled performers, all clearly enjoying the chance to fly their freak flags to comical effect.
