I like the movie, but I don't like how they changed the title of it. I mean, why did they change it to "The Mouse Trap" when the movie trailer said it was called "Mickey's Mouse Trap?!" Now I'm mad and can't stop thinking about it. Still I like the movie, it's just the title change that I don't like. Anyway; I like that the manager was possessed by Mickey to kill Alex's friends, Rebecca telling the story about what happened, and that it took place at an arcade. I'll rate this movie an 8/10. I'm very proud of how it turned out, but I still wish it was called "Mickey's Mouse Trap" instead of "The Mouse Trap."

"Mouse Trap" had a decent premise going in, and before reading any reviews, I went to watch the film. However, and after the first 5 minutes, I thought it was going to be enjoyable. But, It didn't work out that way. So, Let's review "Mouse Trap". I really enjoyed the 2 girls performances, and the amusements were really cool looking. And the kids acted like kids, and they say some funny things. So that was fairly good. I also found the humour to work, the gimmick goes as follows, one of the girls has a crush on the boys, and then Is allowed out, despite having to work a longer shift. And she's never going to come back, despite promising to. Which was quite funny to me. The Micky Mouse costume is also very good, and then he comes chasing, and the mystery thickens as to who he is. Alex's friends then ruin his attack, and celebrates her birthday with her. And we see a love triangle involved with Alex. I really enjoy the character-development, and the first 20 Minutes. But after that it de-rails and looses it's feet. What I mean by this, Is the mystery is good. And a nice added touch, the effects are solid also afterwards. But the script takes a massive backwards step, and makes characters conversations either unatral or not a very good script to go off, and it just feels disappointing. Like it had promise. But the script and everything just Let's it down. The detective on the left was decent, but the girl and the other's detectives lines were rather cringeworthy and lost all impact on the story. And the rest of the characters make silly decisions that don't really add up. Like how does someone sleep?, when a murderous rampaging lunatic is on the loose, I think he just forgot. The other characters have awkward moments. But they do have some clever and smart ideas. They do realise one thing may work, which is the lighting effects the Mickey Mouse guy. And that works well. But for me it was wasted potential. It's more a 4 then a 3 but it should of been more. So, the question raised. Would I recommend this film? I would not, have a Cuppa instead and avoid it.

There's not a lot to say when it comes to 2024's Mickey's Mouse Trap. If we're being honest, we're surprised it even reached a 2.5 out of 10, but everyone's entitled to their own opinion. Now we have to disagree with some of the comments that state a childhood cartoon could never be a good horror movie. It's a cool concept to see the things we love as children adapt and grow with us now that all us 90s kids are now in our 20s and 30s. The concept of being stuck in an arcade with a serial killer is outright terrifying, but it was overshadowed by the poor writing of the script and the acting that accompanied. Plot wise, the movie made no sense whatsoever. Our killer could teleport; characters weren't using logic and tried to be funny in serious moments, and the ending hinted at a sequel being made.. we can only hope this doesn't get approved!

So, since these old classics are in Public domain, anyone can make a movie. Yet with this movie, we see that some people should not do movies at all... We saw winnie the pooh Blood and honey 1, which was very bad, yet they upped their game in the sequel which was quite good for what it is. And then we have this.... Definitely the worst ive seen in a while, and i've watched plenty of Troma movies recently. Lets start with 1 good thing. Cinematography is not terrible. While it's not Kubric, lol , it was not terrible at all. No fancy camera work, but you get what's happening, and the quality was actually good. Lighting was ok, even as there are plenty of secnes in the dark. They did 1 good job here. And that's all i can say as good about the movie. Acting was from bad to terrible. But the worst part was the script and dialogues. Yes, i know these actors are inexperienced, but the bad dialogue and script didn't help them at all. And the ending - lol. Definitely a textbook case of how NOT to end a movie. Anyway,not recommended. Unlike winnie the pooh, this is unwatchable.

The film starts with our protagonist worker Alex Fen, her friend Jayna, and her boss Tim Collins in an amusement park, then we have a scene of a douchebag kid and a little girl getting bullied by another kid, and the plot twist of this thing, the boss of Alex (called Tim Collins) is gonna be the killer throughout all of this, since while he sits to watch a tape of Steamboat Willie, gets possessed by the mask, and then Jayna escapes to have a date, then Alex's friends surprise her with a surprise birthday party filled with alcohol, games, and fun, the rest of the film turns very cheesy overall, the kills are not impressive, brutal, or anything, there is some bad acting in this thing, seriously, that would explain why most of the actors don't have any remarkable credits. Something redeemable from this are the sets, they use the lightning very well and it's nice to watch and that's it, something really bad is the ending, it made no sense and kinda left us with a cliffhanger and me with a bad taste, and even killed our protagonist, which I was hoping were our final girl, and the one to defeat Mickey, I hope that if they make a sequel, could make a better ending than this one, I only vote this with 5 stars for which I already said, the sets and lightning, and cuz this was at least entertaining enough to make me watch all of it, thank you for reading.

The worst movie I have ever seen. The acting was so bad I couldn't even watch it. The movie script was so so bad and it was very unrealistic. You should't even watch it because it's not worth the time. I don't know what they were thinkig by making this movie. Students in our school could make a better movie, script and the acting better. The actors are probably from Tik Tok. I am so pissed that I watched this movie and was expecting so much from it, but guys, lets be for real - the movie is so bad. All in all, don't watch this movie and from all my heart don't waste your time, find something better to watch. Thank you <3.

This movie was lit just so stupid because it's just micky bothering some teens and there was no gore and like it just made no sense. I had very high hopes for this movie. I hoped it would have Been like Winnie the poo (horror flim) but it was so disappointing. No gore just a bunch of teens swearing and the movies scenes were random like the scene where the kid said "date someone ur age " made no sense . And they tried to b funny but it just wasn't working and the vibe wasn't good for a horror flim so if u r looking for gore films and stuff don't watch this one it is a waste of time and just was boring .

"The Mouse Trap" is the cinematic equivalent of a guilty pleasure. It's a film that knows exactly what it is and doesn't pretend to be anything more than a good, old-fashioned cheesy good slasher flick. Right from the opening Star Wars-esque crawl, setting the stage with a campy, over-the-top tone, you know you're in for a wild ride. The film's self-awareness is its greatest strength. It leans into its absurdity, embracing the campiness of its premise: a killer Mickey Mouse stalking a group of unsuspecting teens. The kills could have been expanded, but the filmmakers make the best of what they can with their budget, the dialogue cheesy, and the plot predictable, yet there's an undeniable charm to it all. While it's certainly not a cinematic masterpiece, Mouse Trap is a fun, mindless escape. It's the kind of movie you watch with a group of friends, armed with popcorn and plenty of beer, ready to laugh, scream, and forget about the world for a couple of hours.

This film is nothing short of a masterpiece. I give it a 10/10, as it drastically changed my life. Every aspect of the movie, from its breathtaking cinematography to the flawless acting, is executed with such precision and care that it's impossible not to be moved. The storyline is captivating, the direction is brilliant, and the score perfectly complements the emotional depth of the scenes. If you haven't seen this classic, you're seriously missing out on a cinematic experience that will stay with you long after the credits roll. It's a true work of art that deserves all the acclaim it receives.
