The Others review by JD
Skilful plot Kidman magic
(0) of (1) members found this review helpful.
Nicole Kidman acted magically with two gifted, promising child actors. The plot moves beguilingly through twists and turns and has an unusual end. There are some good moments of sudden horror which would make anyone jolt (with a good and very dramatic musical score).
I don't watch many horror movies and this film is a good example of the reason, they are not that enjoyable, the bits between the horror are plain and it doesn't leave you with any other emotion than creepiness. This hybrid was worse than usual as the horror detracted from the period drama.
Why are actors forced to do accents? The nanny has the most varied Irish accent you will ever hear, which detracts so much from the atmosphere it should not be allowed. Not quite as bad as Brad Pitt's German accent or Tommy Lee's Irish accent.
