Truth or Dare

Truth or Dare is about six friends that take a trip to Mexico and play what they believe will be a harmless game of truth or dare. They are wrong.

This is Lucy Hale's most recent film. You probably recognize her from Pretty Little Liars or her singing career. I loved Hale in Pretty Little Liars, but in this movie...I should've stayed home. All the best scenes were in the preview, and while the ending wasn't super predictable, it was really stupid. Hale goes from this decent human being that would put the world above her own needs, to a girl that chooses herself over anyone else.

Truth or Dare was supposed to be a horror movie. I expected to be scared or to jump occasionally. I didn't, and in fact I was more bored than anything else. It was like a domino effect; one after the other they all started to die. I just kept sitting there waiting for the next kill. Some of the deaths were hard to watch as well (but I don't like gore or anything close to it). Really the only thing I did like about this movie was learning the backstory to why this was happening and how they could stop it, but that whole portion started about an hour in or more. It only showed up with about a half hour left and then it felt rushed because there were only a few kids left, and they didn't want to die.

If I was you, I would pass on Truth or Dare completely. Maybe wait for it to be on Netflix? That way you can start it and then stop it when you get bored. Believe me, you will not be the only one.
