Exit 8 prettyyy good!!!
I personally really enjoyed the Exit 8 movie, i've seen it get a lot of negative reviews so I wanted to put mine out there.
CHARACTERS:
The Lost Man (main character) didn't react as much as i thought he should have for being trapped in a lopping hallway. The backstory of him and his wife was okay, it seemed like a normal backstory.
The Walking Man. I think he represents foolish people in the way he ignores important things, very rushed, can't hear the kids' opinions, believing he's right every time but also shows the insanity to believe things so easily , desperate to leave , maybe like a normal person who had entered the looping rooms.
The Boy- The boy was kinda like a wakeup call to the lost man. He was losing hope and on the verge of giving up but then the boy appeared. The lost man thinks about his future with his wife and envisions The Boy as their kid, giving him more reason to get out. While when the walking man had the boy by his side, he saw it as more a responsibility rather than something to actually care about. The boy in some ways is like a guide, a child could notice more things than an adult because yes they both want to go home but the boy is more careful and observant.
Overall
I liked how the scary monsters were things that the lost man saw before, the looping train hall is kind of like a memory/nightmare. It takes things that you've seen or experienced and turns them into something against you. Shows you face to face your fears. It had you looking yourself for the anomalies, I was nervous trying to look around to see if he missed anything too lol.><. I loved how the first 10 minutes were in first person. I just thought it was cool. There wasn't really character development (maybe a hint when the lost man is thinking about family but not really a big thing). But I loved the film. Scary for me, lowkey dont see the hate.
