Viewing Notes

Another film that never succeeds in nailing its premise. They take a good idea and make a rather dull movie around it. I kept waiting for this movie to do something, anything, interesting and as soon as it does it moves back into tedium. Really a waste for everyone involved.

The poster looks great! Interested to hear what the movie was like.

So boring. Really a wasted effort that could’ve been really cool. I’ve got to update my tally details but this was maybe 4 out 10 stars. It sounds good but executed poorly.

So terror didn’t creep from the fringe of fear to the pit of panic? Bummer. The poster still rocks though!

Haha! Yeah definitely a great poster. Probably why I had it so high in my queue! =)
