Trap (2024)
M. Night Shyamalan returns with what might be his most
quintessentially "M. Night" film to date. Josh Hartnett is just a normal dad and hero firefighter who wants to be left alone with his hobbies —his hobby? Amateur butchery.
When he takes his daughter to a Lady Raven concert, Josh
quickly finds himself ensnared in a trap set by the Philly police. The arena is locked down, and every man in the audience is profiled and forcibly removed from
the concert they paid upwards of $600USD a ticket for while the police search for Josh to try and spoil his hobby. The question is: can Josh outwit them and make his escape and why did M.Night allow his daughter to “act” so much in this film? Did he not see the dailies? Trap (2024)
