"A potentially interesting premise that is then left in the hands of an insipid posse of one-dimensional characters to mull over..."

Not particularly good, but surprisingly better than I was expecting. It's pretty easy to find faults in _Truth or Dare_, and sometimes that gets aggravating, but at least it wasn't boring.

_Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._

Truth or Dare (2018) is one of those horror movies that keeps a decent pace but feels oddly familiar, almost like a mashup of different horror elements you've seen before. The setup is engaging enough, and the production is solid for a Blumhouse film, but there's nothing groundbreaking here. The tension is there, but the scares rely too much on predictable moments and overused horror tropes. It moves fast enough to keep things from getting boring, but at the same time, it doesn’t leave much of a lasting impact.

The acting isn't bad, and the cast does what they can with the material, but the film as a whole feels forgettable once it's over. It has a few moments that work, but the story doesn't do enough to stand out from similar supernatural horror films. If you're just looking for a casual, easy-to-watch horror flick with some creepy visuals and a decent pace, it might be worth a shot. Otherwise, it's not something you'd revisit or think about much after the credits roll.

You've reached the end.
