An average movie

Honestly, I wasn't expecting much from this flick but since I have a weak spot for Kevin Costner, I thought I might as well give it a try. Eventually, I didn't like it much, I'm afraid. Indeed, basically, it is a rather pedestrian horror-thriller and, to be honest, nothing much happened during the first hour. As a result, you get one of these very slow built-ups with a lot of ominous music and creepy noises but I have seen this gimmick so many times before, I was actually seriously bored during the whole duration. To be honest, the directing was decent and Kevin Costner did what he could with this material but the story was just really weak. On top of that, the title and the poster gave away already half of the plot even before watching the movie and if you combine this with how really slow the whole thing was moving on, it made this movie even more tedious. On a side note, it was actually nice to see again Ivana Baquero 3 years after she played the main character in 'El laberinto del fauno' and, for a young Spanish girl, she did a pretty good job playing an American teenager. Anyway, to conclude, even though it wasn’t really awful, it was still pretty weak and I don't think it is really worth a look.
