Tarot (2024)★ 5.1/10

This movie starts like a classic horror flick but throws in some new stuff that really shakes things up. It's got this demon from the tarot cards, and the way each character dies is all tied to their tarot fortunes. It's really a cool setup that keeps you hooked. And Paxton is like fate's favorite – even though he gets messed with, he somehow manages to dodge death. This is definitely one of the best horror movies to come out recently. Worth checking out for sure.

This movie's got an intriguing take that's drawn in all kinds of people, even those who aren't super into divination or astrology. It starts by using tarot cards to lay out the characters' fates, but it does it fresh and excitingly. And there's a subtle twist at the end from the beginning, but you could easily miss it. I missed the hint, so I kept waiting for more twists until the end.

This movie was a pleasant surprise, way better than I expected. The story was kind of basic, and the style was a little old-fashioned, but the director had a great sense of humor, and the visuals were just amazing. I had to give special props to the monster designs, which were so creative. Even though the movie stuck to a pretty traditional formula, it was clear that the director was trying to do something new, and they definitely succeeded in making it fun and unexpected. My only nitpick is that some of the other characters, like the teammates, were a little too stubborn and seemed kind of dumb at times. But I still have to say that it's a shame they didn't get to do more with such great monster designs like that.

A couple of scenes in this movie were so dark that I couldn't even see what was going on. And it felt like the whole atmosphere relied on the same old scary stuff like the movie never tried to be original. I was hoping for something with a little more depth that didn't talk down to the audience like many horror movies do. But I guess I was just being too optimistic. The ending was also kind of confusing. On the other hand, the part about the astrologer getting revenge was pretty well done and kind of interesting.

The idea of bringing tarot card characters to life sets this supernatural horror film apart from others in its genre. The most compelling aspects of the movie are the depictions of the murder and death of the High Priestess and The Hermit. However, the film's second half disappoints as it relies heavily on cheap jump scares throughout, ultimately failing to engage the audience on a deeper level. It's a rather lowbrow and immature approach to trying to scare viewers.

The trailer definitely showed the most exciting parts of the movie, but the overall quality is kinda a letdown. It follows a similar plot design as those early "Final Destination" movies, but without the bloody death scenes that made them memorable. It seems like the writer realized viewers wouldn't remember each character's tarot card, so they constantly flashback and explain it before each death, which is ridiculous. The movie relies too much on jump scares, and the only real highlight is the design of the different tarot monsters. The ending is way too simple and lacks any real twists or suspense. It's a shame to waste such a good concept.

Tarot (2024) es de esas películas que te hacen recordar por qué el cine de terror adolescente de serie B tiene un lugar tan culpable pero cómodo en nuestras vidas: no cambia el mundo, pero te hace pasar el rato entre sustos predecibles y palomitas.
​💫 2.5 / 5 estrellas

​Lo que funciona: El diseño de los monstruos inspirados en las cartas del tarot (la Sacerdotisa, el Ahorcado, el Loco) está genuinamente bien logrado. Tienen una estética espeluznante que destaca visualmente y regala un par de muertes creativas que sacan una sonrisa a los fans del género.

​Lo que flaquea: El guion no arriesga nada. Sigue al pie de la letra la fórmula gastada de Destino Final: jóvenes rompen una regla ancestral, quedan malditos uno a uno y corren contra el tiempo para romper el hechizo. Los personajes son bastante planos y toman las típicas decisiones absurdas que te hacen gritarle a la pantalla.

​No esperes una obra maestra del terror psicológico ni reflexiones profundas. Es una película ligera, empaquetada para asustar sin complicaciones un viernes por la noche, que cumple justo con lo mínimo pero se olvida fácil al salir de la sala.

A melhor parte do filme é o começo, quando a garota faz as leituras no tarô. A premissa é legalzinha mas a o potencial da história é jogado no lixo sem a menor consideração

Una propuesta interesante. Diferente respecto al tarot. Sin embargo, no acertaron al momento de ejecutarla. Predecible y con huecos argumentales.

A ideia de dar vida a personagens de cartas de tarô diferencia esse filme de terror sobrenatural de outros do gênero. Os aspectos mais interessantes do filme são as representações do assassinato e da morte da Alta Sacerdotisa e do Eremita. No entanto, a segunda metade do filme decepciona, pois se baseia muito em sustos fracos, não conseguindo envolver o público em um nível mais profundo. É uma abordagem um tanto simplória e imatura para tentar assustar os espectadores do começo ao fim.

Sem dúvida, o trailer mostrou as partes mais emocionantes do filme, mas a qualidade geral é meio decepcionante. Essa obra segue um enredo semelhante aos primeiros filmes de "Premonição", mas sem as cenas sangrentas de morte que os tornaram memoráveis. Parece que os roteiristas perceberam que os espectadores não se lembrariam das cartas de tarô de cada personagem, então eles constantemente os relembram antes de cada morte, o que é ridículo. O filme depende muito de sustos, e o único destaque real é o design dos diferentes monstros do tarô. O final é muito simples e carece de reviravoltas ou suspense reais. É uma pena desperdiçar um conceito tão bom.

Este filme começa como um clássico filme de terror, mas traz algumas coisas novas que realmente abalam as coisas. Existe um demônio das cartas de tarô, e a maneira como cada personagem morre está ligada à sua sorte nas cartas. É realmente um cenário legal que mantém você atento. E Paxton é o favorito do destino – mesmo que ele enfrente alguns problemas, ele de alguma forma consegue se esquivar da morte. Este é definitivamente um dos melhores filmes de terror lançados recentemente. Vale a pena conferir, com certeza.
