Reading the reviews, I am amazed how popular this film amongst the reviewers. For me, it was a massive, MASSIVE let down.
On average, I am very generous with my rating on IMDB. Usually I rate 1 point, if not 2 points above the rating on IMDB. Especially when it comes to horror / thriller genres, I am super easy to please.
This film gets 3/10 for me - and that is purely for the brilliant acting of the kids. They are spotless. The casting couldn't have been done better. But that is the only good thing about the film.
Above all, this film is not a horror film. Not even close. It is not a thriller either. It is simply a drama film, trying too hard to give a message to make the film feel like it is one of those "yeah, I didn't understand the film and that's why it's great 'cos I'm cool" reactions. Sorry, not for me.
Very, very disappointed.
