The Watcher - Netflix

1 Sort by date Sort by reaction score 2
I know the story it’s based on doesn’t have a conclusion as such. But this was all over the place, plot holes everywhere. Seemingly important information revealed but doesn’t go anywhere and then never gets mentioned again, for example the video of the teen girl getting into bed with the dad. It was just really really poor, poor writing, poor direction and pace and even Bobby Cannavale who has been in loads of stuff and is actually a very good actor looked as if he had just left his first acting class.
 
i finished it yesterday and went straight to youtube to watch an 'ending explained' video and someone had left a comment that made quite a lot of sense which was something like, "it was as though they'd signed for a 10 episode series but at ep 6 they'd been told to end it and so ep 7 felt rushed with lots of things being left open and unfinished" - which i think sums up the final episode well.
 
Just finished this and came on here to see if someone cracked the ending 🤣

I am quite disappointed, not necessarily that we don't know who the watcher is, but because they tried doing everything they could to make it interesting, twisty and mysterious that it turned out to be a whole lot of nothing.

I thought the ending itself was fine. People had so much trauma/past relationships in this house and kept coming back. Kept watching it. In the end, they're all watchers because they can't let go of their past.

However this doesn't justify who the duck is murdering pets, breaks in, phones them, sends the letters.

Perhaps it's the preservation society William, Jasper and the lady with glasses, the masterminds, they're trying to scare the owners to preserve the houses original state. We'll if it's so then they failed hard.

Overall they tried high quality tricks but too many of them made the whole thing very cheap.
