Trap (2024) - MOVIE REVIEW

Hey everyone, M. Night Shyamalan is back! While I have not been a big fan of his work in recent years (since Split), it is undeniable that he makes some of the more interesting movies out there and I always appreciate going to see his movies in theaters. Trap seemed like a great concept which is why it was one of my most anticipated movies of the back half of 2024. I'm also a big Josh Hartnett fan. Is Trap a return to form for M. Night or does it continue his streak of poorly-executed, contained thrillers? Find out in this review! Trap: Written & Directed by: M. Night Shyamalan Produced by: Marc Bienstock, Ashwin Rajan, M.
