Him-bedømmelser og anmeldelser
- Rick18. september 2025Is this what having CTE feels like?
- tellum8. oktober 2025Religious Allegory + CTE Commentary + NFL Culture Parody + Gladiator 1 + The Substance w/ Testosterone + Tim from Tim and Eric + Buff Wayans + the boat guy from I Know What You Did Last Summer + White Chicks = THIS MOVIE
- Jonathan grzywo9. oktober 2025This is what happens when you're allowed to have too much creative freedom and now you just look stupid. Terrible acting, terrible concept, terrible everything. We're fighting back because we see you and we're tired.
- Richard Scott Long29. marts 2026WTF did I just watch...it was pretty good for an hour
- wdams24. marts 2026Fever dream.
- 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.
- Doc Worm30. december 2025Not as deep as it thinks it is but there’s some truly great visual artistry on display here.
- tjoe2724. december 2025Bad- I didn’t watch it but my parents did.
- ADC897423. december 2025I wanted to like it more but it was too much going on and not a lot making sense. Might have been some stuff that was cut from the movie. Good acting from Tyriq and Marlon though.
- otoruk20. september 2025There has been loads of amazing horror/suspense/thriller movies this year. "HIM" is most certainly one of those films. I wouldn't miss an opportunity to watch this for anyone who's been teetering on the idea of watching!
- 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!?
- tokethaninja21. december 2025Ingenious use of american football advertising/cinematography techniques for stress inducing, and very intense scenes. Besides that it's a pretty mid movie.
- Mr. D12. december 2025It could have been something, with the artistic, symbolic vibe it had going on. Unfortunately, those who created this film didn't have the ability to execute this mind trip. I'm not a fan of "potential". So if you're scrolling for something good? This ain't it.
- phoenixhr14. november 2025It was a got attempt and had good moments, but because if the trainer it was a little predictable and for a heavy horror fan it was only good
- 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.
