They did a great job on close-up pre action "jump" shots. A great way to catch attention. For the writers of this movie, mad props. 10 out of 10.

Why are critics always pretentious arses? It was scary and entertaining, cant ask for much more in a horror film.

Even though most people did not care for it, it was phenomenal. I especially liked the first person camera view because it was more lifelike.

This is like the Blair Witch project mixed with Godzilla. Only recommend seeing though if you enjoy sci-fi movies and movies like Godzilla.… Expand

To be expected, the most effective fright scenes take place at night, when Alba's character is alone in her apartment. However, the film deserves kudos for including more than one scary moment in broad daylight with people around her. Yes,To be expected, the most effective fright scenes take place at night, when Alba's character is alone in her apartment. However, the film deserves kudos for including more than one scary moment in broad daylight with people around her. Yes, many are easy jump scares, but in others, it is the tense buildup that makes it so fun to watch. However, the third act of the film, despite a visually impressive climax, is rather weak, full of slow and uninteresting explanation. Even so, this is a pretty solid PG-13 horror, and manages to retain the eeriness of the original.… Expand
