Arcadian

This was surprisingly ery good. The creatures were satisfactorily creepy.

a solid Nick Cage film with very little forced DEI/LGBTQ/BLM content.

Everyone's a critic now? What would you seriously expect when sitting down to watch this? lol I had no expectations and really enjoyed it. The creature design was very original and the movie itself was pretty good I thought. It's a Nic Cage monster movie, not Avatar! ;)

It is an enjoyable movie even though it is just a repetitive story, action was nice, acting was good, his older son just pisses me off most of the movie.

"Arcadian," starring Nicholas Cage and directed by Benjamin Brewer, is a horror and survival movie that offers a tense atmosphere and moments of genuine suspense. The plot follows a father and his two twin children who attempt to survive a siege of ferocious creatures at their remote farm.

One of the strengths of "Arcadian" is Nicholas Cage's performance. While we have seen Cage in extravagant and exaggerated roles, in this film he shows a more moderate and contained performance, which fits well with the dark atmosphere of the story. The tension is effectively built, and there are scenes that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

However, the film is not perfect. Some elements of the plot may seem predictable, and while the creatures are original, their design and role in the story do not add much to the horror genre.

In summary, "Arcadian" is an interesting movie for fans of horror and Nicholas Cage followers. It is not an innovative masterpiece, but it offers enough suspense and solid performances to keep you interested. If you enjoy survival movies with a touch of horror, this could be a good option for you.

I was surprised at how good this low budget film turned out to be. It's a coming of age story set against a post-apocalyptic background. A nice little addition to the sci-fi horror genre.

Now that was a decent film, really enjoyed it, good prefromance from all! I'd of loved to know more about these creatures and their back story tho.

Slow start, but with a solid ending. Nicolas Cage even though he hardly acts in the movie had a great performance.

Ignore the negative reviews, Arcadian is a really good sci-fi horror thriller - it’s tense, well written. Cage is great, as usual. The story isn’t complicated, as all films should be - a battle against evil, a fight to survive against the odds, a fathers sacrificial love for his sons, boy meets girl - just good, honest, story telling.

Also, it’s encouraging to see a lack of shoe-horned woke inclusivity, why? Because every film doesn’t need a token diverse cast for the sake of it. People deep down care about the fundamentals in life, love / hate / passion / sacrifice / revenge / jealousy / good vs evil - and Arcadian manages to touch on some of these core values that make great stories.

Maxwell Jenkins is a fine actor, don’t think much of the film apart from him being in it
