that whole warning at beginning of the film pissed me off. I try to go into film blind without knowing as little about the film. I dont need any useless warnings before r rated film, im over 21 and not a child by any stretch of the imagination. Has this generation of film films really regressed to a point that they cant handle even the slightest thing negative images on screen? If they are going to put these so called warnings on film please do it after the credits roll, as to not give anything away. Ive seen it all on films before any never felt "triggered" to point of counseling! Ive seen double features of Salo, and Irreversible which makes Blink Twice look like Mary Poppins

somehow I think you'll be okay

Really enjoyed this last night...Kravitz has crafted a movie in her debut that can match up favourably with some of the best output from Peele or Shayamalin... very impressive!

I can't wait to revisit this on a physical disc...

So impressed with Zoe Kravitz - this is a very well written and incredibly sharp film.

Very good film and great debut from Kravitz. Tatum is much better than people give him credit for.

Yea and he’s especially very good in his “apology” monologue.

I doubt we are getting a 4k for this.

That does not really make any sense to put it at the end because the scene(s) already have happened. Someone who went through a traumatic experience would need to know prior, not after. It isn't just about you

Saw it today - pretty good. The mystery was pretty easy to figure out very early on thanks to some not so subtle imagery, then it was kind of just waiting to see it all play out.

Still it was twisted and interesting to watch. Tatum great and it was a super effort for Kravitz as a directorial debut.

The ending seems a little split online but I thought it was different and quite cool.

[djgeneral]

Great performance from Tatum and direction from Kravitz. Very twisted story

this childish rant indicates otherwise

[crutzulee]

At the risk of sounding childish, I am admittedly of 2 minds about the trigger warning...
While I wholly understand and agree with the aims of providing such a warning to protect traumatized individuals, I do feel that this particular warning, for this particular movie, does have a certain spoiler affect... especially for someone like myself who goes into most movies as cold as possible...
I also can't help further wonder if this particular group would take even greater care than other groups to know a film's subject matter ahead of time...

[MazeRunner]

This felt like a streaming movie

[King O.A.]

Tonally all over the place, but still a solid flick. Tatum can really act. Wasn't always like that.

[ps3bd_owner]

Just about watchable, mediocre movie.

From the poster I expected better.

My main issue is there are lots of movies that deal with difficult subjects, and it's not like this movie is unique, so why did this one get a "Trigger" warning.
