The Black Phone - 3.5/4

I was thoroughly impressed with the acting, the story and the decision to include some levity in the form of fairly brutal yet fantastic adolescent violence. I enjoyed it immensely. I was worried that the ending was going to take away some of the opportunity for the lead actor to “have his moment” but all fears were unfounded and oh boy was that ending satisfying.
Before I watched it I knew it had four things going for it:

Ethan Hawke
Jeremy Davies
James Ransone
Blumhouse

Never doubt the credentials.
