I've heard mixed views regarding that film.
What do you BoSers think of it?
Yay or nay?

 

[postnatal]

the ending makes the entire film pointless and the music is overbearing

 

[Grissom]

Nay.

 

[Cinnamonster]

I thought it was pretty good.
However, I thought it was partly predictable because of the trailers.
I'd say yay.

hahaha. EXACT words from my housemate.


it's not brilliant but i did enjoy it

It's focus on what deems sanity made me respect the film, its exploration of it was intriguing - even though it was predictable in parts.

I made a noticable connection to "The Wicker Man," in terms of the similarity in plot ideas - however this was much better.

Yes, see it

Now that you mention it, yes I see some similarities.
It's one of the better movies that are out right now, I would say. I'd say yay.

I liked the music. But, I do agree that it was very overbearing right at the beginning.

Yeah my friend was telling me 'it was uber scary!'

[deviousgeek]

Yay, I love films that twist and turn like this.

Plot summary:
"aRe YOu CraZY?!?! HoW cAN yOu bE so SUrE?!?!"

Still a good movie though. Ending's pretty obvious though if you pick up on the clues (which I didn't).
Yay from me.

Am I alone or did anyone else pretty much get who number 67 was pretty early on. Also ending was so dissapointing.

No you're not alone. The movie was kind of ruined due to the trailers, way too much of the movie shown in them.
