So much average
best movie i've ever seen.
Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
I had high hopes with the one after seeing the preview. The Flitting shadows that disappear had me intrigued. But no, it was not to be. There was a whole lot of movie, but really a whole lot of not much. When I rate horror movies I usually give a little leeway as there are so many bad horrors out there. Slowly but surely though there are so many horror movies entering the realm that are just nothing. P.S. Uma does a really annoying job at pretending to be a person pretending to be french.
Kit Gordy, a student at the exclusive Blackwood Boarding School, confronts the institution's supernatural occurrences and dark powers of its headmistress. Down a Dark Hall is not the worst movie of the year or the worst horror one either but it's also far from being one of the great ones either and actors such as Uma Thurman? deserved way better. But i will admit that in terms of acting? The movie wasn't that bad it's just that the storyline and the script as a whole was half finished and needed way more work in my opinion cause it had it's moments.
Just a teen movie without anything diferent. Cannot think of a reason to watch It again. Poor performances and a plot full of holes. Lots of questions are not answered, but sincerely, noone wants to know the answers
I didn't expect this film to be any good, I hate TWILIGHT and, to be frank, most teen movies. I find them plain and full of dumb characters, and pop songs seem to be enough to try to make the audiences feel interested on the screen. But wow, this film is something. It's elegant, it has class, it builds tension with almost only light and sound. The music is beautiful too, and the young actresses are amazing, especially AnnaSophia Robb, who's never been this good. Uma Thurman is as subtle as a villain as she's powerful too, dangerous and intelligent, a true manipulator. BLACKWOOD made me think, for some reason, in movies like WALKABOUT and in films by Aronofsky. I wish there were more of these movies today that still respect film making and their audiences. I'm not that young anymore, I actually have just been father, but the ending almost made me cry, for a number of reasons. This film shouldn't have been good. But it certainly is.
