A Praga Avaliações & Comentários
- Hakihiko2 de abril de 2026Quietly Engaging with a Lingering Unease "The Plague" delivers a restrained and atmospheric experience that slowly draws you in without needing to push too hard. It is not flashy or overly ambitious on the surface, but there is a steady sense of tension and mood that keeps it consistently engaging. The performances feel grounded and natural, fitting well with the film’s more subdued tone. The cast does a good job of carrying the emotional weight without overplaying it, which helps maintain a sense of realism throughout. Visually, the film leans into a more muted and controlled style. The atmosphere is one of its strengths, with a look that reinforces the quiet tension. The soundtrack supports this approach, adding subtle layers without ever becoming too prominent. The script unfolds at a measured pace, allowing the tone to build gradually. It does not rush, and that works in its favor, giving the film a steady rhythm that keeps the viewer involved without relying on constant escalation. At times, this same restraint can make certain moments feel a bit too understated, with some ideas not explored as deeply as they could have been. Still, it works as a solid and engaging experience. Its atmosphere and controlled approach give it a quiet strength that makes it more memorable than it might initially seem.
- kieran.charette11 de março de 2026It's a slow burn with a bit of an ambiguous ending, usually I hate those but this one works. Kind of reminds me of the good son, great performances by the kids.
- Kevin Ward10 de dezembro de 2025If Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Cheese Touch was a psychological horror movie. Loved some of the cinematography in this. Some beautifully framed poolside shots and some very cool upside down underwater sequences. All-time pep-talk from Joel Egerton when Ben is desperately looking for reassurance that life eventually gets better.
- Kevin Wertz11 de fevereiro de 2026The Plague ends up being a rather boring movie about bullying that ultimately goes nowhere.
- DonVeto3 de março de 2026If you want to feel really confused for 2 hours, then watch this movie. Just a weird combination of suspense and nothingness.
- SirMonkalot15 de fevereiro de 2026This isn’t my type of horror. Bullying is awful but this isn’t what I want to see when I think of horror. I also don’t enjoy movies where I’m just angry at the characters for being shit human beings. The animalistic sounds also kind of pissed me off. I get the point, but I found it pretty lame. I bet you these kids parents just shrug off their behaviour and love to say “boys will be boys”. Their parents need to give em a good belting.
- cultfilmliker14 de janeiro de 2026Adolescent male Carrie reboot Yeahhh… Mental illness definitely makes this slightly tougher to conquer Simultaneously brings shame, retraumatizes, and touches you at the same time Really good performances from all of the kids! Really goofy haircut choice for Joel Edgerton! I will mention that my sleepovers never came close to the level of homoeroticism in this, which occurred around the same time period! And I’m pretty sure I had the most gay allegations of any straight man in my high school. Currently Ranked #4/195 in 2025 Ranked
- Tim and Ken15 de fevereiro de 2026Be forewarned that this is dubbed in English. It's kind of a sweet - but very slow - story that gives a more grown up perspective of how kids can behave sometimes - the absurdity and the impact that it has on individuals.
- jackmeat7 de fevereiro de 2026My quick rating - 6.1/10. I thought The Plague was going to make me afraid of swimming pools forever or infect me with something deadly. Instead, I got a movie that tried to psychologically scar me, and reminded me in an uncomfortable way that kids can be kind of terrible (just like adults, go figure.) The plot revolves around a nervous 12-year-old’s experience in a vicious social world at an all-boys water polo camp, and being nice is a disease. The tradition here is to shun one kid who is referred to as ‘The Plague’ due to illness, though it is not specified what kind...Is it real? Is it rumor? Is it just weaponized puberty? The movie clearly wants that uncertainty to be the engine of dread. First, let’s address the chlorine-scented elephant in the room. This is supposed to be a U.S. summer camp, but it is so obviously shot somewhere in Eastern Europe that it’s distracting (the credits confirmed it's Romania). The architecture, the locations, even the general vibe scream “discount Baltic sports facility.” I half expected someone to spike the Gatorade with beet juice. It pulled me out of the immersion more than once. Joel Edgerton shows up as the coach/dad figure and, once again, proves he is physically incapable of giving a bad performance (Train Dreams, anyone?). The man could convincingly play a conflicted folding chair. The problem is, where are the rest of the adults? This camp seems to be run on a staffing model of “one stressed coach and vibes.” These kids have more unsupervised psychological warfare going on than a reality TV show. The film is tagged as horror, which feels generous. There’s tension, yes. There’s cruelty, absolutely. There are looks from Eli (Kenny Rasmussen) and Ben (Everett Blunck) that could curdle milk at twenty paces. But very little of it escalates into anything that truly stands as horror. It’s more social dread than genre dread. One scene feels directly inspired by Full Metal Jacket’s group punishment sequence, just resized to junior edition. Performance-wise, Everett Blunck is the standout and carries a wide emotional range convincingly. That said, I struggled with the intended sympathy for Ben. Yes, bullying is wrong - full stop - but the script makes some choices that undermine him hard. Treating Eli like a human being? Good. Noble. Rubbing lotion on his back in front of a pack of middle-school piranhas? That is not bravery, that is social self-detonation. And later, when he throws Eli under the bus, any remaining moral high ground gets power-washed away. I found myself thinking, “Well…consequences are clearly on the way.” The themes are solid. Rumor as disease, conformity pressure, adolescent cruelty, and vulnerability. The dread builds slowly, sometimes too slowly, and the pacing can wobble. There’s not a lot of spontaneity in the scene construction, but the performances and mood keep it watchable. The Plague didn’t hit as hard for me as it clearly will for some, especially those with personal bullying scars, but it’s still worth a look. Just don’t go in expecting a horror film. Think more along the lines of psychological poolside anxiety drama.
- ricomckee8 de fevereiro de 2026This was a great movie about the struggles many boys… go through as they start Middle school. Not kids and not adults and barely a teenager. Their bodies are awkward… they don’t understand their actions… and mostly… they are mean. It’s a good story of someone learning to be themselves even if no one appreciates it.
- Scott Thomas6 de fevereiro de 2026Damn! That was great. Loads of tension, great acting and directing, and a plot that really made me think.
- Abe Froman8 de fevereiro de 2026Gonna chop off my finger, dance, and feel so fukn freeeeeeeeeee NEW YORK MASSIVE like a muhfuh.
- Coouge7 de fevereiro de 2026Garbage waste of time movie
