Had it figured out about 30 minutes in that it was Lena's dad/the chemistry teacher who kidnapped Regan. All I had left to know from there was his motive, which was revealed at the end. These movies aren't too hard to figure out. They constantly tried to paint Samantha as being the culprit, but I wasn't convinced. Mona on the other hand was a bit of a surprise though.
Aside from that, there were also a handful of plot holes, continuity errors, and characters making dumb decisions that not even a 4 year old would make.
1. Regan's kidnapping could have been prevented if Beth, Regan's mother had gone to the repair shop with her instead of letting her go alone. Especially knowing that that attacker was still on the loose.
2. Also what could have prevented Regan from being kidnapped was if Beth checked the store's CLOSING times so they could go the next morning when it opened. I literally do this with every restaurant and store that I plan to go to. Stupid!
3. In what universe does a phone break that badly to the point where it no longer functions properly, after falling like 3 feet to the ground? I have dropped my phone various times from that height. In fact it's happened 3 times this week, and it still working like it's supposed to. People drop their devices every day, but in the case of Regan, hers no longer works??
4. Why did Regan not charge her phone right after coming home from school so she could post the video? And how did Mr. Peters/Kyle know about this and decided to shut off the power at her house?? So many unanswered questions
5. How did Mona and Kyle know that Regan would drop her purse to allow Mona to steal her car keys so Kyle could give Regan a ride and ultimately kidnap her? It seems like a lot of things had to go right for their plan to work perfectly.
6. No WAY would a school be that empty and closed at 6pm. Are after-school clubs and activities not a thing? At least have there be 2 or 3 janitors. It would make more sense if this was around 9pm. Also during the attack, if you pause at the right time, you can see Kyle's face, CLEAR as day.
7. When Jim and Lena were watching Megan's dance video on the tablet, it shows the phone and ring light, but wasn't Regan recording the dance from her own phone? It soon switches to the correct point of view and then back to the incorrect one.
8. The handwriting on the note that Beth found on her car was just comical. The lowercase 'h' looked more like a capital 'L' so it looked like it said "SLe's Dead". I burst out laughing during that part.
This is my fourth time watching this movie. I wouldn't say it was bad, but the plot holes and characters' decisions definitely made it hard to watch. And before I watched this and heard 'dance competition', I wasn't expecting it to be TikTok dances. I will rate the acting a 6/10 and the overall movie 7/10.
