This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This film is one of my earliest horror movie memories. The first time I saw this movie was when I was in my second year of high school - which was in 2009. It was on TV, I was scared **** I loved it. I remember trying to explain the plot to my best friend on the way to school the next day without giving the twist away, but she didn't understand one word of my explaination, so the day after we made her mom rent this movie at our library and watched it at her house. Today is the first time I've seen it since. It definitely isn't as scary as the first time around when you know the twist, and it also helps to not be 13 years old anymore, but it still holds up for me because I have such strong memories of those two times I watched this. The rating is 100% based on that teenage sentiment, because this is not a 5 star movie, but isn't that kind of the point of movies, too? Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. For the first time in seventy years, 20th Century Fox shipped prints of this movie without the final reel, which was shipped separately. This was done as a security measure as so people wouldn't be able to reveal the ending. To further ensure the safety of protecting the film's ending, security guards would hand-deliver the reel to theaters showing the film. Fox had individually numbered each reel, as well as a final security measure. Fox Executive Vice President and Sales Manager Richard Myerson stated it was "to ensure everyone's enjoyment of the film and to prevent 'spoilers', we've instituted extraordinary measures. We think it's worth the effort." Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Great psychological thriller and what the drawing meant
at the end. This thriller scared the daylights out of me. I loved it and the ride was so intense I thought I'd burst at the end of the movie. I never saw it coming, never predicted who or what Charlie was about--and was shocked. I LOVE IT! I love it when a movie sneaks up on me.

Its great and I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who wants a good psychological thriller. Dakota Fanning was wonderful and shows great promise as an awesome actress. What can I saw about DeNiro--he delivers in spades (?) and never lets you down. I found myself gripping my fiancé at times and almost burying my head when I knew something scary was about to happen. I would have never predicted what the truth was and it was right there all the time. I loved this movie, will see it again, and buy it when its out on DVD. What a great and awesome piece of work. I am so glad I went. Go, you won't regret it. Oh and in case you don't know about the ending. The little girl was letting us know SHE HAS ANOTHER PERSONALITY. Just like daddy had Charlie, she too, has another personality! Prepare ye for part 2. Lorrie

Ethan, don't worry what Sam says about you never being a friend of Dakota's. Dakota is very open to her fans. In one rare moment, I was able to visit with her for 25 minutes before she had to leave. I even got a hug out of it at Ethan, don't worry what Sam says about you never being a friend of Dakota's. Dakota is very open to her fans. In one rare moment, I was able to visit with her for 25 minutes before she had to leave. I even got a hug out of it at the end, which she gave without hesitation. Anyway, I only saw the movie because Dakota was in it. Yes, the plot is borrowed, yes the story is weak in some areas, but Fanning is nothing less than hypnotic--pure magic. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The horror film of 2005 !!!!

This film is the best horror film of 2005, by far! It was enjoyable from beginning to end, and really made you think. The performance's of the actors were literally spectacular, especially 11 year old Dakota Fanning who plays the creepy Emily.

The film has you thinking from beginning to end and the way everything come's together at the end is literally mesmerising! The directing is superb for the type of film and the script is amazing! I truly recommend this movie to everyone in need of a tremendous psychological thriller!
