Sting

**2.5/5 – *Sting* Spins a Familiar Web** As someone who’s terrified of spiders but oddly drawn to spider-centric horror, *Sting* lands right in the middle: decent, yet deeply familiar. It’s a by-the-numbers creature feature—solid enough effects, a few tense moments, but nothing that lingers. The plot hits all the expected beats, with little innovation or suspense beyond what’s standard fare. If you walk in with low expectations, as I did, it’s a passable watch—flawed, formulaic, but not unwatchable. Ultimately, *Sting* is less of a bite and more of a nibble: it scratches the itch for spider horror without leaving much of a mark.

o BOM e SURPREENDENTE filme de Aranha Assassina. Sting é uma excessão bem boa em meio há tantas outras obras que retratam sobre monstros assassinos, principalmente no meio aracnídeo. Direção bem competente, roteiro bem elaborado (apesar de seus problemas e falta de respostas em algumas partes), um elenco que entrega, uma boa ambientação, um horror e terror que funciona bem, e com um suspense bem construído. São apenas alguns dos principais pontos positivos desse filme. Longe de ser incrível, mas a competência é um baita ponto positivo! E eu acho sim que vale a pena a experiência. N: 7!!

How did pro critics award this derivative claptrap a score of 70%?

You'll learn to hate Alyla Browne in a hurry. Her character was annoying. The movie itself was stupid. I'm not sure why people say they liked this film. Cheap thrills, characters you don't care about, and there was nothing surprising about the ending. A waste of time. With total gross of 1.1M, it seems a lot of people agree with me, and obviously, a waste of money for the producers. Don't waste YOUR time.

I fall asleep two times, wasting my time watching this movie

I had high hopes going into this one. It wasn't an ABDOLUTELY terrible movie. The effects and the spider looked good. The acting was dry, funny moments were few and far between, and it just really wasn't scary at all. It's ok for a one time watch if you've got nothing else.

Me pareció algo agradable pero he de admitir que la trama fue muy lenta, lo bueno llega hasta la parte final pero me gusto.

For a movie about a giant spider it’s frustratingly restrained. If you’re going to give me a giant killer spider, give me a giant killer spider.

Toda muy buena hasta el final tipica pelicula de terror pero de principio a medio muy buena. Una pelicula muy buena para verla con tu pareja facil.

I have a bias for B-horror, but objectively, I can say it’s worth watching. It masterfully blends moments of comedy and tension.
