The end of Eli subverts the majority of Eli, making it kind of like a cheap game. It’s not as damaging as the ridiculous final scene of “Fractured,” but I was left with a similar bad taste in my mouth. Read full review

This film is very original work that has a rich and deep story and a mix of other horror films.

Nicely filmed, pacing is steady and performances are serviceable. Lilli Taylor always carries her weight. i found the scares very effective, not generic jump scares, very well done blending of light and shadow and characters.

Lilli Taylor always carries her weight. i found the scares very effective, not generic jump scares, very well done blending of light and shadow and characters. I like the dad doing tough love, too often characters could be more real if they attempted a balancing act like real people. It was like a good pulpy horror book from the 1970s.… Expand

The first half seemed to have a slower pace compared to the second half. However, the story itself was fascinating and kept me guessing up until the last scene. Acting was overall solid minus a few moments with the kid actor. Music and atmosphere were also solid. Some of the jump scares were predictable if you've seen enough horror movies, but the interesting story makes up for that.

Overall, I would recommend "Eli" to those looking for a nice Netflix horror movie.… Expand

movie production is great and so is the acting, very predictable jump scares, they still do a job, movie has more of a comedic sense to it, the first half of the movie was clear, the second half was all over the place and the ending is just horrible and unrealistic, overall its an okay moviemovie production is great and so is the acting, very predictable jump scares, they still do a job, movie has more of a comedic sense to it, the first half of the movie was clear, the second half was all over the place and the ending is just horrible and unrealistic, overall its an okay movie but they shouldve put more effort into the plot, the ending in specific.… Expand

For the first half it's a copy/paste of the same "scary" scene over and over again mixed with a heap of ridiculous non-answers from all characters at all times, probably to extend the length of the damn thing.

It's completely stripped of any kind of human emotion or logic reactions from everyone included. It's quite simply put a complete disaster of a movie. When it nears its end it tries to throw some lame plot twists at you that "clears everything up". But the plot twists themselves are so laughably out there that it only accomplishes to take it to a whole new level of utter nonsense.… Expand

Iba todo bien hasta la mitad de la película donde te das cuenta de la pérdida de tiempo y del ñordo de película que es. Horrible, lamentable.
