      Jack H I enjoyed the movie as I didn't expect the twist until 15 minutes before it was revealed at the most. The characters were great too. The only reason it isn't five stars is for the fact that although I didn't expect it , the twist wasn't that good. Also, some parts were a bit cheesy but it wouldn't be a movie without cheesy parts. The comedy is good, I liked the creepy parts and the message is a very unique one, which most people don't think about.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/19/22 Full Review Shaheed B This movie has so much happening, from begining to end, one thing after another, I couldn't stop watching, even though it wasn't scary and it's not a horror movie I didn't expect to be glued to my screen because I needed to see every minute what was going to happen next, what was the phantom going to do next, and how they were going to stop him. I love how they don't break the 4th wall but I feel like somehow the way Movie Mason talked about the magic of movies and all the magic that was happening, it was like as of it's acknowledge itself to be a movie and has so much cliche things happening. I know all the actors didn't give a Oscar worthy performance and you might have found their characters and dialogue so clice but I absolutely loved it, I didn't care for a second, with the way everything was happening you don't expect them to be crying in the corner like Anne Hathaway in Le Miserables. The cinematography was bright and colourful and obviously it wasn't like a blockbuster movie but in this case the story way overtrump the visuals because you're so invested in the story. The sound was exactly the same the cinematography, but I do wish Disney would remaster this movie in picture and sound because this is such an underrated hidden gem. I'm sure many have been to the theatre where something went wrong like a bathroom stall out of order, pop corn running out, one flavour soda is finished, a long movie line and I think we should see this movie so that we can have an appreciation for how hard it is to be on the other side especially now with the Marvel blockbuster movies. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/23/22 Full Review Audience Member Taking inspiration from Gaston Leroux's The Phantom of the Opera, this one's all about a gigantic megaplex that has to deal with mysterious happenings on the night of the premiere of the film Midnight Mayhem. That's because when the original theater was demolished to build this 26-screen theater, the phantom stayed behind, now haunting this entire film. Perhaps the best part of this is Mickey Rooney as the Movie Mason, an elderly moviegoer whose family opened the original theater. He's so old that he comes to the theater every day thinking that he works there. After a career of directing Power Rangers and teen movies like Wish Upon a Star, in which Katherine Heigl and Danielle Harris switch bodies, he pretty much only makes Mormon-themed movies like Meet the Mormons and a TV series based on the Book of Mormon. For fans of this site, the highlight of this movie is when you can see one of the megaplex screens showing a horror movie called Glimpses of Genevieve which is, of course, Alice, Sweet Alice. I love that one of the most nihilistic movies ever about growing up is in a innocuous Disney film about teens. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member In Disney Channel's take on a whodunnit it ends up being a really fun and engaging film despite having a cold start in the beginning but once the film past it's exposition it takes off setting the tension and tone of the film but towards the second half of the film it finds its self taking detours from the plot and breaking the paste of the film. All in all it ends on a solid note. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member As a kid, I had seen parts of this and have memories of it. I don't know if I saw the whole thing back then. Recently I watched the whole thing and it is a load of fun, with the candy scene of people tripping everywhere to the inflatables scene. It is quite funny too, Mickey Rooney helping it be. He works wonders in this. Reccomend if you want to watch something that is a little scary and short and well its mostly family friendly. Use caution. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
