Slow paced narrative serves as an anchor around the viewing experience...

Despite the fact of never even having heard about the 2025 horror movie "Tales from Black Manor", of course I had to sit down and watch it, as I had the opportunity to do so. And without ever having heard about it, I virtually had no idea what I was in for. So I suppose that directors Lexie Findarle Trivundza and Nick Trivundza had every opportunity to entertain and impress me.From the movie's title, I assumed that this was most likely an anthology.Granted, I haven't watched the series, so I literally didn't have a clue as to what to expect here.While the stories weren't bad, I have to say that I felt that the narratives were forced and rushed. It felt like directors Lexie Findarle Trivundza and Nick Trivundza were in too much of a hurry to get through each story and onto the next one. And that left me with a sensation of unfulfillment, as if there was so much left to be explored and brought to the screen in each story.The narratives are slow paced, and I had to check how long was left at some point, as it felt like I had sat through two hours of the movie, at my surprise I was only halfway through. So the movie struggles with its pacing, making it quite a task to sit through.I was not familiar with a single actor or actress on the cast list, and that is actually something I do enjoy whenever I sit down and watch a movie. So that was something that spoke in favor of the movie. The acting performances were good.The production in "Tales from Black Manor" is good, it looks and feels atmospheric and dark. And I really liked that, because it added a lot to the overall impression of the different stories.In overall, then "Tales from Black Manor" felt disjointed and erratic. Watchable, for sure, but hardly an outstanding or memorable viewing experience. However, after having struggled to sit through a very prolonged 91 minutes runtime, I can honestly say that this is hardly something I will return to watch a second time.My rating of the 2025 movie "Tales from Black Manor" lands on a four out of ten stars.

Not even sure if this is a movie. I'll start with the positive. It's a good-looking picture. Shot well. Doesn't look cheap. Pleasing to the eyes.But it's all a big nothing burger. It's not even an anthology. It's just a series of vignettes throughout time, based on a family that found a way to cheat death. Runs from the 1300s to the future. But each one is just voice-overs on top of way too much slow motion. And they're all the same. No real conflict. No real stakes. No one to root for. Not a damn reason to care. It's just dull.I guess if there's any point to this movie, it's that living forever can get really boring. Almost as boring as this movie.
