‘Trap’
The new M. Night Shyamalan movie Trap is easily the most fun I’ve had at the movies this year. But now you don’t even have to go to a movie theater to watch this twisty new thriller, because Trap is available to buy and rent online. Written and directed by Shyamalan, the films stars Josh Hartnett as Cooper: a lovable dad by day, and a serial killer by night. Cooper takes his daughter Riley (Ariel Donoghue) to a concert for her favorite fictional singer, Lady Raven (Saleka Night Shyamalan). When he realizes the concert is a trap set by the FBI to capture him, he has only the duration of the concert to find an escape. Hartnett is so compelling, you’ll find yourself rooting for a sociopath. The script isn’t perfect, but Shyamalan’s masterful directing more than make up for the writing’s flaws. You’ll be locked in like Josh Hartnett at a Lady Raven concert.
