This film quickly manages to grab you through the unknown. Despite the cast that feels akward at times (especially Vicky Krieps as the mother) it is a film that knows how to hold your attention to the end. Maybe it was my cup of tea because of the setting reminds me of the series lost but it is a recommendation for the people who love thrillers in general.… Expand

An intriguing story that keeps you on the edge of your seat on what's happening on this tropical island, with of course the classic twist that m night shyamalan always brings to his movies, it's definitely worth a watch

But he has a career resurgence as of late, and Old maintains that steady streak of quality, quirky thrillers that is his forte. It is surprisingly a heart rending affair and has a strong social commentary on how we approach 'old age' in this modern society.… Expand

Overall the film was very solid. Night seems to be returning to his original form. The twist worked for me and I know for some it won’t.

One with a premise that carries most of the movie. The actors play there parts well and realistically react to the horrors that are occurring to them. The movie does seem to slow down while all the characters make dumb choices that keep the movie halted. After a certain point you are just waiting for the inevitable to occur. Overall really unique and enjoyable.… Expand

Old, like most of Shyamalan's films, is a wild trip and incredibly nuanced with many lessons to learn and morals to absorb. The actors chosen for the roles of this film were spot-on and it was shocking but thoroughly entertaining as well.

Once again, M. Night delivers something that it is worth thinking about long after the credits roll. I think it’s one of his more interesting films, particularly the end twist. Overall, I enjoyed it quite a bit.

Dazzling direction, absurd characters and grotesque elements. The plot twist in this case is not fully successful and does not do justice to the rest of the film. Despite this, the film is quiet great and is probably among the best of the director. The soundtrack is excellent while the italian dubbing is unfortunately rather poor.… Expand

There are some moments that make the movie fall short of great, but for a 7, the movie packs in a good amount of good. I liked the idea displayed and the cast was great to fit the roles.

I would've enjoyed it more if there was more backstory in regards to the characters that participated and I kinda disliked the fact that some of them were killed pretty fast and actually kinda stupidly. The acting was pretty great for the most part especially the kids actors.The effects were also pretty good and I wanna give a huge thumbs up for the makeup artists which probably did the biggest job of everyone in the movie since there were constant subtle changes in the characters in every scene. Ending was pretty great kinda reminded me of an entire SCP foundation story which is a big bonus for me since I love that ****… Expand

M Night Shyamalan is a fantastic director. I do not understand why everybody hates him so much. Even his worst movie is still better than most other directors best movies including Spielberg. Old is no exception.

Had the beach been more of an unexplained scientific phenomenon than a puzzle to be solved, Old could have been something far more existentially dreadful.
