The Uncanny Counter confuses "subtle" with "the cast forgot to act".
“Not even a post-credits scene could save this.”

The Uncanny Counter: every character holds the idiot ball with both hands and a strap.

The science in The Uncanny Counter has the same relationship to physics that I have to going to the gym: aspirational.

The Uncanny Counter treats "worldbuilding" the way a toddler treats a fruit bowl — enthusiastically, briefly, then forgotten.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in The Uncanny Counter?
Just got out of The Uncanny Counter and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

Hot Take: The Uncanny Counter's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Rewatched The Uncanny Counter last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in The Uncanny Counter?
Director clearly thought The Uncanny Counter was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

The cinematography in The Uncanny Counter is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows
Everyone praising the The Uncanny Counter performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.
