Everything I read about this is overwhelmingly, positive or negative. The people bashing it make what seem like well thought out points and make me feel I wouldn't like it. OTOH, Disney has been trying to undermine Netflix with a barrage of blog posts and bots so not sure I trust the negative reviews. Good or garbage?
shareIt's right in the middle. Better than a lot of rubbish I've seen, but equally there are many far superior films out there. It does have some interesting elements and I thought the production value was good, the special effects were well executed if not somewhat cliched in their originality. The kid was an able actor, managing to do a decent job, as were the rest of the cast. It does leave you wondering where the plot is heading about 20 minutes from the end, but in the end the "twist" is only a vague surprise, leaving one underwhelmed.
I would recommend it, but if you're a seasoned movie-goer or a fan of horror in general, it probably won't blow you away.
