There's not much I can say about this movie (because I don't want to give anything away) other than the fact that its brillant. It's not scary, you might tense up, but I DON'T do scary, I hate them and I can't even watch CSI or Law and Order, and this isn't scary, its just suspensful, so know that part because I didnt want to watch it for the longest time because I thought it was scary. the acting is brillant, the directing, of course, is brillant. Its nothing that your expecting from start to finish. definitley watch it.
I thought I posted, but must've glitched...
ReplyDeleteThis movie was so disturbing on so many levels. But the cinematography was absolutely stunning throughout.
Speaking of cinematography (and editing and other technical movie stuff) -- did you ever see Inception?
yeah it was definitley psychological but in a really cool way and the acting and all that other amazing stuff was...amazing.
ReplyDeleteIts my netflix queue but I havent watched it yet, my dad won't let me re-order his queue so I gotta just wait while he orders crappy movies, haha.
