After each occasion when I saw, I define it as masterpiece. sure, many explanations. but something is real impressive - the plot. the science to explore each emotion, expectation, thrill, supposition about story, characters and end. the performances are more than beautiful. the atmosphere - you feel it . the tension - real embroidery. the great good point - it is a film about yourself. about fears, certitudes and appearances. and that does it a magnificent film. and more. a remarkable masterpiece.
I don't really understand these overly positive reviews. The movie is incredibly boring and felt more like a drama or something the like than a horror movie. I personally did not enjoy the acting at all, especially from the children, it just felt very try-hard. It's not worth the 1+ hour you spent watching it at all. I can imagine that MAYBE you'd enjoy the movie slightly more if you hadn't known the twist and went in with a completely blank slate but even then I don't think I personally would've enjoyed it. It's really incredibly boring.
There's an Oscar for good sound editing. As far as I know, there aren't criminal penalties for egregiously awful sound editing.In this case, the sound editor may not be to blame. It's got to be a directorial choice. Jarring noises are the primary tool for provoking shock.These explosions of sound will probably make you jump. Apart from that, there's not much that's scary about the movie. There aren't any evil characters.Apart from waking your neighbors and permanently damaging your hearing, the huge imbalance of sound levels will insure that you spend the duration of the film manipulating the volume. You'll have to turn it up if you want to hear the whispered dialogue. You'll need to decrease it by 75% when something "dramatic" happens.
It started like a classic family movie, you watch at rainy evenings, but it started growing with a creepy-disturbing atmosphere. In this horror movie do not expect a lot of jump-scares or gore scenes,but every scary part was worth it. We recommend this movie to everyone, who is looking for ghostly-eerie movie and wants to have a good feeling after it. We really enjoyed it, but the beginning of movie wasn't as we expect, it started really slowly.
