Did anyone else wanna turn it off?


I thought this was one of the worst movies ever made. No more deserving than a 2 out of 10 in my books. I wanted to turn it off but I'm rarely that type of person so I gave the movie a chance.

I honestly did not enjoy this film. I had never heard of it prior to me watching it. I just came across it one day on google and decided the premise was interesting enough to give the film a try. The film is interesting for about oh I'd say....10-15 minutes and then after that it starts to completely go downhill. The problem I had with this movie is that it's a film that MUST depend on dialogue and developement of characters because of it's "isolated" plot. I thought the dialogue was far from impressive and the characters were way more annoying and unbelievable than actually interesting. Because of this the movie fell really flat.

To me, this honestly felt like a movie that only cared about the beginning of the film and the ending. All of the in between stuff just felt thrown in and not cared for only so we could see the "twist" at the end. By that time I honestly didn't care, I was bored out of my mind. Was the twist surprising? Yeah, a little but I barely even cared. My reaction was "Wow didn't see that coming.....what a waste of an hour and a half though.....".

If some people enjoyed the film, good for them, but I definitely wouldn't recommend this to anyone myself.

No, I didn't. The movie was pretty cool.

I don't get very emotionally invested in movies and I felt emotionally drained after this one. So, to me, that would make this movie good in my books. I agree, the first 15 minutes were great and incredibly tense, but I enjoyed the developmental middle as well.

I'm actually watching this movie now. and I am ready to turn it off. I can't see anyone willing to leave someone you love outside because your too afraid you might get sick yourself.

I wanted to turn it off but I needed to see how the writer(s) were gonna get him out of that house. Crappy ending.
