An average movie

Posted : 10 years, 5 months ago on 26 November 2013 10:23

Honestly, I wasnโ€™t sure what to expect from this flick but since there was a pretty cool cast, I thought I might as well give it a try. Basically, it was an intriguing paranormal thriller which was mildly entertaining but not much more than that, Iโ€™m afraid. I mean, when you watch a thriller, they try to make you believe that the far-fetched plot is remotely possible (usually, it is not) but when you deal with a paranormal thriller, well, there is pretty much no boundaries, everything is possible, and you need a good dose of suspension of disbelief otherwise it is pretty much unwatchable. In this case, I thought it was some kind of mix between โ€˜The X-filesโ€™ and โ€˜Akiraโ€™. Like I said before, there was some qualities about the whole thing but the biggest mistake, aside the fact that the running time was too short so the whole thing felt pretty rushed, was the fact that the FBI agent played by Aaron Eckhart was also a nut job and, in my opinion, it would have worked better if this character would have been more grounded. Still, there was a nice mood, it was not bad and I guess it is worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
