Best movie of this year hands down!
Powerful
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Story is holding up but it is a Halloween movie like there are Christmas movies. I liked the connection with the vilain past of english invasion. Nicolas was acting very well, looking properly ghastly when appropriate.
There's a lot of build up for nothing, worth watching but it's not an amazing film.
I found this movie quite credible for the first forty minutes or so. A child goes missing in odd circumstances at hallowe'en; his parents split up (all too common when there are tragedies involving kids), and dad's desperate, fruitless attempts to find his son lead him to near collapse. Had the unfortunate child turned up (say) drowned in a ditch, and movie ended there, it wouldn't have been bad.It was when the supernatural elements started ramping up that it all went wrong. Why is it that film-makers think that, just because the supernatural is involved, they can put in any old rubbish instead of a plot? Even in a supernatural story, people still have to behave credibly like people. There still has to be narrative continuity.Why is it that film-makers think that, just because viewers are willing -- at least for a short time -- to accept that there are evil ghostly presences at work in the world, they will also be willing to accept that 2+2=5? The plot doesn't fail for lack of realism -- well, not entirely -- but for lack of logical, narrative consistency.Watch the first half, then make up your own ending. It can't fail to be better than the one we're given.
Wonderful, smooth film. The action never ends and there is a ghost different subjects. Nicolas still shows great performance. You can watch without getting bored. Scared been a bit more fantastic. In fact it could be better. The film was stretched a little time in doing so. The most crucial areas does not take much. This seems to be the sequel. at least I perceive it. If you continue in my opinion it would be fine. Visual effects, music and so much good although really impressive monitored. You do not understand how that time is not now. I would recommend to those watching. I do not understand why this movie actually given so few points. I think it deserves a high score.
