Cinemapremonition 6 Reinventing franchise without losing essence; Read the criticism of RS

After five films, released between 2000 and 2011, Premonition He seemed to have much more to tell and indicated that he would not return to the big screen. However, the franchise returns with Premonition 6: Blood Ties (2025), which opens this Thursday, 15, in Brazilian theaters.

Starring BREC BASSINGER (Iris), Kaitlyn Santa Juana (Stefani), Teo Briones (Charlie), Richard Haron (Erik), Gabrielle Rose (Iris), Owen Joyner (Bobby), RYA KIHLSTEDT (Darlene), Anna Lore (Julia), Alex Zahara (Howard) and Tony Todd (William Bludworth), the feature takes advantage of all the anguish caused by death, which worsely pursues a group of people, but none of them were involved (at least directly) with the catastrophic accident that begins the plot.

“Tormented by a violent and recurring nightmare, the university student Stefanie Return home to track the only person who may, perhaps, be able to break the announced fatal cycle and save his family from the terrible death that inevitably awaits all of them, ”says the synopsis.

In the sixth film in the franchise, the accident that causes premonition, in fact, happened many years earlier. Iriswhen I was still young and dated Paul (Max Lloyd-Jones), predicted that a party held at the top of a building would end up in tragedy, with all the present dead. But it prevents disaster and everyone comes out alive. In the following years, death would persecute all survivors and their descendants.

The link that connects the past of Iris With the gift is Stefaniwhich begins to have nightmares with the grandmother’s view. So when death begins to go after her family, the protagonist tries to save all family members. Can she get it?

Although visually compromised by the special effects, the opening scene – the premonition of Iris – Impresses and entertains as much as the most striking disasters of the franchise, such as the accident on the road and the bridge.

However, the film improves visually throughout the narrative and many of the deaths that happen easily in the ranking of the franchise’s most brutal (highlighting the hospital and garbage truck scene).

The characters are also very interesting and some of them are well developed. Stefanian exemplary student at the university, suffers performance drop in views and goes to the family to try to resolve. When she arrives, she realizes that family dynamics has changed a lot.
At first, the Campbell They look like the perfect family, but we see that it is not quite when some revelations are made during the plot. One of the highlights, definitely, is Richard Haron as Erik Campbellcarefree character who takes attitudes that completely affect events.

One of the most exciting moments happens during the special participation of Tony Toddwho repurised the role of William Bludworth Before he died, at age 69, on November 6, 2024.

With the novelty of Death pursuing a specific lineage and the accident has occurred for many years, the structure of the script is very familiar: the protagonist has the vision, the surrounding people are shocked, but initially doubt that death has a plan to persecute one by one.

The main problem of production is in the final third, when the events get more hurried to the climax, where the problems are solved too fast and some of the deaths are predictable. Already the final scene breathes and smells of what we saw in the other five films in the franchise – and it must be quite divisive between fans and audiences.

After 14 years of the release of the fifth movie, Premonition 6: Blood Ties It arrives as a breath of fresh air and, despite the problems, fulfills the role of honoring the legacy of other movies (except you, Premonition 4and prepare terrain to, perhaps, new productions.
