The positives I think this movie brings are its use of colour, I think it has a nice way of using really poppy colours against its neutral backgrounds. It's other positive is the practical effects. Practical just trumps CGI every time. It as such another layer to the film making. Please can we bring this back!
The story is very paint by numbers and has definitely been done many times before but I wasn't that bothered by it. My biggest issue was the characters, they are poorly wrote for me. I don't understand why they are friends, particularly the brown haired one. There is no backstory and she just seems so out of place the whole movie. She also does really out of character things in line with the other characters but it's not done in a way that shows she trying to fit in, just "oh now she likes coke". I think her character needed more background to why she is friends with these people. That's totally not the point of the movie but it drive me insane lol.
