Why it’s HorroRated
Five Nights at Freddy's is a video game adaptation that respects its source material's emotional core: missing children and the grief of a brother who never recovered. Josh Hutcherson gives the film more than it might've found otherwise and the animatronic work is exactly what the game promised. A horror film with more heart than its premise suggested.
Synopsis
The Five Nights at Freddy's adaptation prioritizes the game's mythology over its mechanics and delivers a family-accessible horror film with a genuine emotional hook. Josh Hutcherson gives the film more weight than the premise requires. More heart than its premise suggested.
