No spoilers.

Great moody/claustrophobic/atmospheric movie with brilliant performances.

Bloody loved it!!!

Love Harry Dean Stanton and love this film. Yes it's slow paced, yes not that much happened but still it is outstanding, thought it was great from start to finish

Nice to see him teamed back up with Tom Skerritt too.

More action, more insane fighting, more car chases!!!

Absolute awesome ridiculous action, brilliant stuff!!

Really nothing special. Stayed with it all the way though, kept hoping it was going somewhere but felt a bit let down overall. It was ok but wouldn't watch it again.

I'm a big fan of Cannibal Holocaust and Cannibal Ferrox and I wasn't expecting too much from this film at all, especially after finding Eli Roths Green Inferno massively underwhelming, well I was quite pleasantly surprised!

No where near as menacing and oppressive as Ferrox or Holocaust but a pretty good movie all the same. Some nicely done FX and quite a good build up. Not a great amount of action but still ok. If you like Cannibal stuff, well worth a viewing.

I really liked this film. I liked the openness of the story; no back story or flashbacks to explain what went before and plenty of occurrences that could be taken several ways, love it! Makes a refreshing change from the formulatic rubbish that gets made recently.

Very minimal dialogue that just adds to the atmosphere and some epic acting.

Well worth a watch.

Bored of pretentious or serious action films which seem to have very little action in them? If so this could be for you.

Loads of action, car chases, gun fights and fisticuffs!! Add to that a good bit of needless swearing and some gore, awesome!!

Mike Wahlberg is great and Iko Uwais (that fella from the movie The Raid) is awesome and has some great fight scenes.

Interesting from start to finish with very little needless over emotional/sentimental rubbish they usually shoe horn in.

Great stuff!!!

Stupid, no horror, no gore, a story you have seen before in the original, wow sounds awesome doesn't it!!

Well actually it's pretty entertaining, nothing awesome, but worthy of a one time viewing.

Bit of an odd film, not a load of stuff happens in this at all but it is interesting. I kept watching it thinking it would get better, you know a bit more action going on, but it just doesn't.

Really well acted by everyone but just a bit slow throughout.

Despite the theme of this film we thoroughly enjoyed this. Depp is just great in fact there is not a bad performance from anyone.

Funny, enchanting, sad and brilliant.

A film I watched when I was younger purely based on Dario Argento having something to do with it, he didn't direct it he was a producer and was involved in the writing of it and I can remember being disappointed.

Well turns out the film was better than I remembered, nothing special but not bad.

Fairly basic script but well shot and acted, stars a 14 year old Asia Argento and a bloke from Casualty! Some pretty decent FX too.

Overall not bad, not amazing but not awful either

I used to watch the original Godzilla films years ago and enjoyed them for their slight cheesyness and big rubber monsters fighting each other.

This is a welcome return to the original look Godzilla, let's not mention the 1998 Hollywood anorexic version, but not much happens.

Not wanting to give any spoilers far too much talking, no where near enough monster action!!

When Godzilla is at full force he looks absolutely awesome but making it through all the talking was a bit of a slog with little payoff.

Not as good as I was hoping.

I love some low budget, badly acted films but certainly not this.

Just awful with not one redeeming that I can think of, I left it going and watched a bit of TV then went back to see if it had improved, it hadn't.

I had never heard of this movie but thought I'd give it a go purely on account of Kevin Bacon being in it.

From the start it was just an intriguing enjoyable film. The 2 main characters are children and to be honest I quite often hate kids in films but these 2 just seem very natural and it's good just watching them.

Kevin Bacon is great though out.

Certainly worth a watch, a very enjoyable evenings viewing.

I had no expectations of this film, I'm not one to compare directors bodies of work or judge a film based purely on a previous body of work.

Us is a great film, well acted, original (yes some parts can be compared to other films but show me a film that can't), and an all round good watch.

Tense at times, with a bit of gore and mayhem but quite mild by today's standards, thought provoking and thoroughly enjoyable.

Watch it for what it is and in a you will enjoy it too.
