Quick Hit

The Mask throws horror on screen with real nerve, but the finish is shaky. There’s some life in it, but not enough.

Full Take

You can feel the movie reaching for a hit from frame one. When the rhythm drags or the trick is obvious, it starts leaking air fast. Once the mood is set, everything comes down to whether the film can cash in its own setup. The set pieces are what matter, and this one gets some mileage out of them. That’s why it lands at BAD.
