Film Reviews by None

Was not expecting much, since I had never even heard of this movie. A bit slow at first, lots of slow, climatic, creeping about scenes that can get a bit tiresome.

But once it warms up it is great.

Really superior storyline, well acted, Forest Whitaker as usual is outstanding as a paranormal consultant. Really scary towards the end in addition to being a good mystery movie and very moving.

Loved it!!

I am a huge Will Ferell fan to begin with, but really do prefer him playing these (slightly) straight man roles!! This film was both hilarious to the point where I spurted red wine all over myself I was laughing so hard and poignant. the characthers are so well written and sypathetic, but most importantly I felt, likeable!! Emma Thompson was great, Maggie Gyllenhall I found very attractive for the first time and Dustin Hoffman was hilarious!!

I really regret not watching this at the cinema as it will be for me the one of the most memorable movies of the year!!

I may go out and by it today!!

I found this movie, scary, touching and really really good!! If you only watch a few japanese horro movies, make this one of them!!
