-
Character Regan
Description Regan's behavior at the beach seems inconsistent with her established character. She is shown as resourceful and resilient throughout the film, yet here she appears defeated and withdrawn, wishing herself away. This could be further explored to understand the emotional impact of the trauma she has experienced.
( Scene 10 (11) ) -
Character Lee
Description Lee's insistence on not letting Regan into the basement seems overly harsh, considering her capabilities and her desire to contribute. His protectiveness is understandable, but it could be balanced with more open communication and trust in her abilities.
( Scene 9 (35) )
-
Description The timing of Evelyn's water breaking seems abrupt and convenient for the plot. There's no prior indication of her being close to labor, making it feel like a forced way to raise the stakes and create a conflict.
( Scene 13 (50) ) -
Description Regan's survival after being submerged in corn lacks a clear explanation. The mechanics of how she manages to breathe and escape are not addressed, creating a significant gap in logic.
( Scene 22 (89) Scene 22 (91) )
-
Description The creatures' vulnerability to high-frequency sound is a crucial plot point that is introduced without explanation. The script would benefit from establishing a logical basis for this weakness, perhaps through the creatures' biology or the nature of their auditory system.
( Scene 3 (10) )
-
Description Lee's explanation to Marcus about masking sounds feels exposition-heavy and slightly unnatural. The dialogue could be more organic, perhaps integrated into the action or expressed through nonverbal cues.
( Scene 11 (43) )
-
Element Regan's attempts to fix her hearing aid
( Scene 9 (35) Scene 10 (38) Scene 17 (76) Scene 18 (80) )
Suggestion While it emphasizes Regan's determination, the repeated scenes of her trying to fix the hearing aid could be streamlined. Perhaps focus on one or two key attempts, and imply the others through subtle cues or dialogue.
