The movie, Detention, is basically a mystery. Well, a mystery that’s kind of confusing that is. Although it has a mystery plot where high school students are being murdered, and the suspect is unknown, do not expect logic in figuring out the plot. However, this does add a sense of unpredictability that’s pretty refreshing. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t call it refreshing if you weren’t born in the 90’s to understand the references that were going on. Here are some absurd incidences or spoilers to expect.
- Time Traveling
- Cinderella Movie references
- Paranormal activity
- Quantum Grizzly Bear
- A minor boob scene
- Dude from Hunger Games
- Film within film
My husband seems to enjoy this way more than I do, so I would say, this movie is not for everybody. It has a very old school horror film feel.
