Shownotes

M. Night Shyamalan as of 2024 is now hit or miss with his movies.  There hasn’t been any further “classics” in his filmography over the last two decades, but he’s had some fairly enjoyable productions.  His latest is called TRAP (2024) and has received a large theatrical release from Warner Brothers Pictures.

Riley (Ariel Donoghue) and her dad Cooper (Josh Hartnett) are attending a Lady Raven concert in Philadelphia.  When Cooper notices that a very large and present law enforcement attendance, he asks a vendor what’s up.  There was a tip that the serial killer known as the Butcher is in attendance.  Soon a cat-and-mouse game begins where everyone, including the talent on stage, has to make decisions that will save their own skins as well as others.

Shyamalan directs from a script that he wrote.  Besides an absolutely fantastic performance by Josh Hartnett, the film also stars Hayley Mills, Saleka Night Shyamalan, and Alison Pill.  With an interesting premise, based off the mixed reviews by audiences and writers alike, the question of its success depends on the individual viewer.  Your co-hosts take a look at this recently released theatrical feature and give their thoughts.
