Hope (2026)
Opening against Runner, this one will be fighting for the same weekend conversation.
Hope opens in theaters on September 9, 2026.
Scored from what 40 creators said on camera while watching its trailers, out loud, in their own YouTube reaction videos, then again after the film came out. A proprietary Reactr score. How the score works
In the remote South Korean village of Hope Harbor, police chief Bum-seok and officer Sung-ae are called to investigate a mysterious creature wreaking havoc on the community. But all is not as it seems, and perceptions can be misleading. What begins as ignorance plants the seed of disaster, escalating through human conflict into a tragedy of cosmic proportions.

Creators posted 40 reaction videos to YouTube watching this trailer campaign. Reactr scored what they actually said, out loud, on camera, and combined it into the Reactr Rating shown at the top of this page. Each trailer drop is scored on its own from the videos reacting to that drop; the number above is the film-level score across all of them. The 11 that counted most are below. How the score works.

Every reaction above is a creator's own upload on YouTube, credited to their channel. Reaction videos are found automatically; a creator can claim their page or ask for a video to be removed from the creator directory.
After release, creators post a second kind of video: their reaction to the film itself. Reactr scores those the same way it scored the trailer reactions, and the two numbers side by side answer one question: did the movie live up to its trailer? A clear gap in either direction is what separates a film that exceeded its trailer from one that simply delivered on it. How the score works.
