I've never been into FNaF and know almost nothing about it besides a few things i've picked up through constant internet use osmosis. But I really enjoyed the movie!
I found it really accessible for someone like me who knows next to nothing, and my bestie knows even less and also enjoyed it.
What are your thoughts on it?

All that being said, as a FNAF fan, I enjoyed the movie. It's filled with easter eggs, and the fact that the animatronics are actually there and look like the games is incredible. Plus basically seeing Shaggy as William Afton/Springtrap was just fun to me, especially with Springtrap wiping his knife off the same way Ghostface does was cool, as well as his first appearance in the suit mimicking how Glitchtrap stands was great.
It's a cheesy, stupid movie, but that's kind of what I loved about it.
It was pretty good. Personally didn't need more gore, the violence that the movie did have was enough, especially for a younger audience.
Absolutely loved how well the animatronics were done.
Visually, it was dead on, but it kind of felt... off to me?
It didn't really seem as well put together as it could have been and there were some rough edges on it that make it feel kind of... uncanny valley to me?
Though it's kind of fitting that a movie about creepy, unsettling looking animatronics also feels in and of itself unsettling and not quite right.
I felt that Willy's Wonderland ended up being a better FNAF-feeling movie than the FNAF movie. That felt more like a labor of love to the whole animatronic horror genre to me.
I think part of it is that they didn't really do any music for the bots to perform?
Like Chuck E. Cheese does songs where they take well known songs and change the lyrics. Willy's Wonderland has a couple of its own original songs. But FNAF has the band up there performing to a stock song right out of the box. They've got the crew Milli Vanilli-ing it up.
I also think the bots were too clean looking and new.
Foxy in particular.
They looked too well put together and artful. Foxy didn't look properly tattered, particularly the gouge in his chest. It looked artful and like it was supposed to be there rather than actually worn out and beaten to shit.
