When the glass is shown at her feet, she is wearing socks
Chronology
After witnessing a bizarre and traumatic incident involving a patient, a psychiatrist becomes increasingly convinced that she is being threatened by a mysterious entity. A few days before the film’s September 30, 2022 release, actors from the film appeared at several baseball games, sitting behind home plate, motionless and smiling as they stared into the camera, unmoving despite the fans in the audience who were understandably concerned, while wearing Smile T-shirts. Another soon appeared in the background with the crowd during the Today show. At approximately the 31-minute mark, Rose breaks a glass when her alarm goes off.
Rose Cotter: What are you?
A few seconds later, as she checks the door, she is wearing lace-up shoes. Based on what happens later at a party, there are several continuity issues that may not be “errors” but may be deliberate to show “breaks” in Rose’s consciousness/sanity. Why are you doing this to me? The Monstrosity: Because Your Mind Is So Inviting.
When would the adrenaline rush end!
The Paramount opening and closing logos feature a curved smile-shaped line at the base of the mountain. Featured in Chris Stuckmann’s Movie Reviews: Smile (2022). Lollipop Written by Beverley Ross and Julius Dixon Acted by The Chordettes. Literally just wanted to rip my heart out.
The cinematography was incredible, I loved the lighting
The sound was out of this world, so don’t skip the “special sound” screenings. It was a fresh and unpredictable horror in my opinion, that goes along with a barbaric pairing for some of the best horror movies, I would say, in the last couple of years. Give it a watch and really think about the moral here. There was more to the story than what was shed to light.
Solid movie, great acting
For those who call this a snooze fest, they don’t understand the meaning of a popcorn movie. Just a good, classic horror that really keeps you on the edge of your seat, continually guessing.
