The biggest problem is that the movie is just utterly boring, I felt no tension or suspense at all, the characters meant nothing to me, and there s really not much happening in terms of plot. Didnt like the feminist undertone either, although I ve seen way worse, there were a few stupid remarks. The first 15 minutes of the movie are the best, after that I quickly lost interest, the acting is great on the other hand, and the movie is high quality in terms of production, but that is to be expected. I m not even considering how stupid and unnecessary is the last part of the film is, the whole thing is a huge bore, and I dont generally find it hard to emphatize with characters but this one left me absolutely unmoved. Not even worth watching once, see 1922 instead, its a very good thriller/horror.… Expand

Boring/10, nothing happens in this film. It's 100 minutes of nothing happening and some **** rambling on to ghosties.

The movie starts extremely well, full of suspense. The explanation of the characters' backstory is done well. The acting is superb, with some emotional scenes. However there is the most unnecessary plot twist that just ruined the movie for me.

Apart from the great acting performances by the main cast, the very well done escape scene and the message it's trying to say, there is nothing particularly good about the movie. Everything's average. The directing and the cinematography areApart from the great acting performances by the main cast, the very well done escape scene and the message it's trying to say, there is nothing particularly good about the movie. Everything's average. The directing and the cinematography are fine but not exceptional, the story is interesting but not enough to warrant a whole movie and the soundtrack is nothing great. If you're a fan of Stephen King you might like the movie, if not, you're better off watching 1922.… Expand

There is a good level of suspense early in the film, however it drags out and the production feels quite B grade in parts. The attempted horror elements don't really work & the ending is ridiculous and goes a long way towards wrecking the movie.

Empieza bien, te mantiene intrigado como se va safar, pero as alucinaciones exgeran mucho, como se safa esta medio chafa, quiere ser shokeante, pero queda en X. El final final es malisimo, y la "muerte" mas chafa aun.
