Truth or Dare is one of those films you keep watching in hopes that it’ll get better, only to be disappointed as each scene passes, until finally, when the end comes, you want to throw the remote at the TV.
It’s that disappointing.
It’s not even too scary or suspenseful. There were a few laughable moments. The main antagonist looks like Joker. There is no resolution to the problem. There is almost no character development. The heroine has no redeeming quality, starts off as seemingly nice, then proves herself selfish till the end and beyond.
Maybe to prepare the viewers for a sequel?
Truth or Dare is currently streaming on Netflix.
