Did we really need this? The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion exists purely because a studio executive needed to secure a yacht down payment.
“Not even a post-credits scene could save this.”

Hot Take: The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Look, I wanted to love The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion?
Everyone praising the The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.

The cinematography in The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows
Honestly, The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.
