    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    lol. I dunno why, perhaps poor directing, but his high-concept shit always looks just so risible at times. Just leave the fuckin beach the way you came in? I dunno maybe it's blocked and swimming around isn't an option??

    He really needs help with his dialogue.

    It looks like they pass out when they try to leave the beach.

    Either way, I anticipate a compelling story idea with overwrought execution and a mid-to-late story twist that feels compelling at first, only to to lead into disappointing results.

    Looks fine. M Night's been more busts at this point for me than success, so I'll only check this out if there's some positive remarks on it. I did like Split though.
