    The Monkey

    Bad, bad, bad.
    - The writing was all over the place, inconsistent, and the humor fell flat.
    - Theo James was fine, but seemed miscast. He did not resemble the child actor, then looked too young to have a 15 year old child, and he seemed out of place in the movie universe.
    - The pacing was slow at points, and the twist was very obvious.

    I saw it in theaters as a teenager and always thought Diablo Cody should write a Scream movie.

    I rewatched it as an adult and realized why Diablo Cody hasn't written a Scream movie.

    Too on-the-nose. The entire middle of the movie goes over the border from satire into home invasion. There isn't really a plot until the third act.

    There were also a bunch of logistical inaccuracies in the script. Such as: rapid test availability in April 2020 (and characters asking if they've tested), a character seeing a wifi router blinking and determining that "somebody is using the wifi!"

    "Do Revenge" was just very bad. I'm not sure if part of it was that I've seen these "teens" in high school content for the past 10 years, but it's not easy to buy them as real kids. The over-the-top dialogue doesn't help, either.
