The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

The movie features a story about a girl named Anna ( brilliantly played by miss Browning) who loses touch with reality (psychosis) because of her(paranoid) schizophrenia, and kills members of her family in the process. I enjoyed the movie, but I think they could've of done more with the details regarding the mother's last moments, more family insights or details about Anna's suicidal attempts and overcoming them so to speak... It kinda of reminded me of ''Carrie'' ( Stephen King's novel and 2013 movie adaptation) for some reason... Overall, I recommend it, if not for the content, then only for Emily Browning's performance.

The only good thing I can say about this movie is Elizabeth Banks, but that still doesn't help this film out at all. She should just stick with comedy and what she is good at because after seeing this, horror is definitely not her strong suit. And the two girls that played the sisters were just horrible actors. I watched this with my girlfriend and every scene I could call out what was going to happen next and 99% of the time I was right. Other than them, the plot points had nothing to do with each other and this movie made no sense at all.. Horrible movie. The 40 year old virgin was more scary than this. Do not watch unless you want to be disappointed.....

The uninvited is a pretty entertaining movie with scary scenes and good plot twists. Elizabeth Banks really steals the show in this movie she played her role very well. This film's plot is very cool and fun to watch. Originally it was the poster for the movie that made me want to see it. I'm very glad that I saw this film, it is extremely well constructed and intelligently written. There is one very big plot twist but I'm not going to give it away you're just going to have to see for yourself. The twist is a big eye opening jaw dropping moment though, just what I love. Elizabeth Banks really showcased her acting talent here, she showed a side of herself I hadn't seen before. 7/10 for the uninvited.

Anna (Emily Browning) returns home from a psychiatric institution after her suicide attempt. She's been struggling after her mother's death in a fire. Her mother was ill and the caretaker Rachel Summers (Elizabeth Banks) is now her father Steven (David Strathairn)'s girlfriend. Her sister Alex (Arielle Kebbel) is convinced that Rachel killed their mother. She keeps having visions of 3 little kids. Her boyfriend Matt is killed presumably in an accident after she sees him in a vision. Her father is getting remarried to Rachel. The girls discover that Rachel is using a false identity. Anna suspects her to be Mildred Kemp who killed the 3 kids in her vision and disappeared.Emily Browning is great as a distressed teen and I like everybody in this. There is a moody ghostly sense through out the movie. This boils down to the ending. I completely understand if some people throw up their hands at the final twists. I personally scratched my head at first. In the end, I accepted it and like the movie. I could have easily gone the other way.
