Hvor man kan se Him
- Timeless Cinema21. september 2025For the most part, the recipe behind Him works well. It's an art house film about sacrifice in pursuit of goals, in contrast with our personal values. But if you're unfamiliar with American football culture, much of the story will fly over your head. The unfortunate detail is how the ending struggles tie everything together. Overall, it's really a 6.5/10.
- Luke Erickson9. oktober 2025Honestly I think this movie was above me. I didn't understand it at all. It does have lots of agenda. Professional Football = Gladiators= soul sucking owners/contracts? Maybe? I feel like NFL players get paid just a wee bit more than Gladiators but I could have my Roman history wrong. Honestly part of my soul was sucked out watching this movie. I got tricked thinking it was a Jordan Peele movie but I guess he executive produced. So he wasn't really involved, maybe to get his friends cast in it? Go watch Get Out or Us. They're good. Skip this and maybe go to 7-11 for Big gulps!?
- Monkey See! Monkey Review!!12. oktober 2025TLDR -> So if you’re here for touchdowns or jump scares, this movie will feel like a prank. But if you’re drawn to secret societies, the darker side of celebrity, and the idea that reality is just a polite hallucination, Him might be your kind of weird. GOOD WATCH!! Let’s get this out of the way: Him is not about football. Unless you consider football a metaphor for punting your soul across the field of fame while wearing cleats made of unresolved trauma. This is a coming-of-age tale, but not the kind where someone gets a scholarship and a pep talk. It’s more like: “Who am I, really? And how much of myself do I have to sacrifice to become the person I pretend to be?” Also, this is not horror. Not in the traditional “run, scream, repeat” sense. It’s horror-adjacent—like waking up in a mansion full of beautiful people who smile too much and never blink. It’s psychological, dramatic, and dipped in surrealism like a fever dream wrapped in velvet. Honestly, we need a new genre for films like this: “Ritualistic Fame Spiral with Bonus Cult Vibes.” The performances? Surprisingly strong. It’s refreshing to see actors break free from their usual roles and dive headfirst into the abyss. They commit. Even when the plot starts whispering in Latin and the lighting suggests someone’s about to summon a demon—or a record deal. The ending? Not my favorite. It felt like the director lit a candle, blew it out, and said “figure it out.” But it didn’t ruin the ride. It just left me staring at the credits wondering if I’d been initiated into something. So if you’re here for touchdowns or jump scares, this movie will feel like a prank. But if you’re drawn to secret societies, the darker side of celebrity, and the idea that reality is just a polite hallucination, Him might be your kind of weird. Personally, I believe there’s a shadow world behind the glitz—one where fame comes with rituals, masks, and maybe a blood oath or two. If that makes me strange, so be it. I found Him fascinating, unsettling, and worth the watch. Just don’t expect closure. Or football. Or sanity.
- jackmeat12. oktober 2025My quick rating - 5.5/10. HIM comes dressed like a prestige horror thriller, blending sports mythology, cult dynamics, and celebrity worship into one glossy package. Director Justin Tipping clearly knows how to frame a shot — this thing is gorgeous to look at, even if some scenes are so dark I thought my TV was dying. But while there’s no shortage of style, the substance struggles to keep pace. The story follows Cameron Cade (Tyriq Withers), a rising football star whose career is derailed by a brutal head injury caused by a fan attack. Just when things look hopeless, his idol — legendary eight-time championship quarterback Isaiah White (Marlon Wayans) — swoops in like a benevolent messiah and offers to personally rebuild him at his secluded training compound. That compound also happens to house Isaiah’s influencer wife, Elsie (Julia Fox), whose vague job seems to be drifting ominously through the background while wearing expensive silk. The training is split into themed days — Day 1: Fun, Day 2: Poise, Day 3: Leadership, and so on — which gives the movie a nice chaptered structure. But knowing this is a horror film, that “Fun” doesn’t last long. By day two, the vibe is already getting weird. By day five, it’s cult-adjacent. And by day six? “Sacrifice.” That’s never a good sign. Cameron should’ve probably caught on sooner that something was wrong — between Isaiah insisting on reviewing game tape alone every night like a vampire doing spreadsheets, Elsie calling “management meetings” that feel like rehearsals for a ritual sacrifice, and the general dreamlike haze of the compound, red flags were everywhere. Often the film slips into full-on dream-state sequences, which makes for a trippy mood but occasionally blurs the line between intentional tension and narrative confusion. Half the time, I wasn’t sure if what I was watching was real or a metaphor. The other half, I was waiting for something to actually happen. Thankfully, when things do finally go off the rails, the payoff comes in the form of a bloody, satisfying finale that almost single-handedly boosted my score. The film’s metaphor — wealthy powerbrokers feeding off athletes like livestock — isn’t subtle. Equating the NFL to a satanic cult is both on-the-nose and undeniably entertaining. Performance-wise, everyone shows up. Withers delivers a strong lead, Wayans is magnetic and menacing in a way we don’t often get to see from him, and Jim Jefferies pops in with a surprisingly fitting role that I didn’t know I needed. The score absolutely slaps, the atmosphere is thick, and the direction is confident. But here’s the problem: there’s just not much story beneath the sheen. HIM has big ideas about fame, exploitation, and hero worship, but it skims the surface instead of digging in. It’s a slow burn that never quite catches fire until the very end, leaving most of its potential untapped. Don’t go in expecting a Jordan Peele-style social thriller, despite the marketing trying to nudge it that way. HIM isn’t bad by any means, just frustratingly hollow. A beautifully wrapped box with not much inside.
