Too many fans seem to be blown away
... View MoreGreat Film overall
... View MoreA lot of fun.
... View MoreGreat example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
... View MoreAbsolute drivel. You can tell the moment the movie starts, from the dopey-looking, moronic halfwit narrating, that this is going to be no Oscar-winner! It appears to have been produced by a "Movie-Making 101" class on their first morning.Lousy direction, pathetic "acting", dreadful cinematography specialising in dark, darker, the darkest scenes imaginable. It was a shame to bring little children into this mess, btw. WHY are movies of this type being made? WHO is the audience? NOT recommended, unless you want to punish yourself for something !
... View MoreThere are some great scares in this movie that kept me going. Then there were the terrible ones. And the long, drawn-out drama scenes that just didn't work for me. Maybe because they tended to be clichéd scenes that I already knew the ending to that they tried to extend for dramatic effect but fell flat. At the end of one of those scenes, one of the actors was laughing, and I don't think she was acting because it was ridiculous. The premise was okay, but I don't feel like they stuck to it. In the end, you don't know exactly what happened or why. And I didn't even care. It's just not that good. On a side note, as I looked this up, I saw Michael O'Keefe in the cast! I realized, "Oh! It's the kid from Caddyshack!" He didn't do a bad job, but I thought it was funny.
... View MoreThis movie was one of the worst I've ever seen! I think the paranormal genre is only getting a few good ones every 5 years or so. This film though, it was a complete insult to the entire genre, screenwriters, actors, everyone involved in the business! I have never given a rating of 1 star before, but this is much deserving in that account. I know some of the actors in this movie, they could have done a lot better, as far as a script. The actors in this film were good with what they were given, they were great. But, when you only have so much to work with, normally, it can't be made better, no matter how good your acting skills are! Also, the paranormal genre has been beat to death. They should lay off until they have something good to work with. I love paranormal and thriller/horror movies, even the older cult classics. But, please, lay off before doing anymore until you have a good script and not just good actors.
... View MoreA parapsychologist team are asked to investigate Apartment 143. The White family, who have lost their wife/mother in a car crash, have been experiencing strange things since they moved in to the apartment. But, they were also experiencing things at their old place. After the team set up their equipment, they get some compelling evidence on camera.Beware reviews submitted by those who worked on the film! You can tell who they are cuz the people only have one review under their screen name and each time it's a glowing review for this monstrosity!The movie has been done so many times, it's not funny and this movie offers nothing different. It's very slow and when it finally gets a bit exciting, it's half done and you're sleepy.It's not that it's poorly made, or acted it's just BLAH. Who cares. I've seen it before and in better ways.BTW the interior of the "apartment" is strangely set up like a house. I wonder what that's about? The interiors look like nothing an apartment looks like unless you're living in the Dakota!Finally with only 20 minutes left to the movie, things start happening! And then it gets slow and talkie again. Unacceptable. This movie could have been good, but they simply took a formula and applied it, rendering the movie sub-par.
