Never read the book or saw any adaptations of this story. That beeing said, I can only say that this is a great prison escape film.
Great scenes, the acting not so great by the lead character but Malek does a great job on delivering another outstanding performance.
Althought the end felt a bit anti climatic.
This movie is a breath of fresh air in the current horror genre.
It has a good story, nothing you haven't seen in other movies, but a interesting one that kept me captivated all through the film.
The visual effects did it's purpose and it had really creepy imagery about this witch (?). Almost felt like a creepy pasta.
I was afraid that the ending would ruined it all, but I was pleasantly surprised.
I don't know, maybe because pretty…
This re-imagening of the Fantasy Island series could've had much more success if the plot was better and smarter, without so many plot holes.
The potencial was there, but I guess the lazy writing screw it.
This was the first Studio Ghibli film I've ever saw.
Technically, the animation is beautiful, stylish and very well made. It felt like a fever dream at some parts.
But unfortunately, for me, it's just it. The pace is unbearably slow, confusing and filled with plot holes.
The story itself became uninteresting and I couldn't care less about what happens next, I just wanted to end as quick as possible.
I know this movie is considered a masterpiece for some and it's ok. It's just not my type of film.
My expectations were met and that's a bonus these days.
Although I wanted more backstory about this monster. The creature itself was pretty cool on my opinion.
The film is ok, you can watch if you want something like The Descent but underwater.
Why the artsy aproach? This tale is perfect for a horror movie but this is just bad. Very bad and boring!
The good news is that this film is probably the best cure against insomnia.
Such a disapointment...
If this is found footage, how did they found the footage? After the ending I don't see how anyone could recover the tapes!
Anyway, this movie is kinda meh, not much going on, some moving objects in the church, some random tunnels, and nothing pays off in the end.
I was expecting better, but I can't recomend this one sadly.
Sometimes, when a movie has a interesting idea, it doesn't always deliver (I'm looking at you The Platform).
Well, this movie absolutely deliveres with a good concept and a fairly good plot.
It has it's flaws, like being a little predictable and the characters could've made smarter decisions, although we didn't had a movie of they did. Sometimes, you need to something stupid to have a story you know?
Good thriller, watch it if you can.
Another netflix documentary classic.
Such a bizarre and incredible story, one of those cases where reality surpasses any fiction.
Well researched and well told, I'm sure I'm not the first to tell you to watch this, but seriously watch this.
