5.5 is right on the money - no spoilers here.
5.5 is right on the money - no spoilers here.
5.5 I would say is right on the money. Not academy material but good for a couple of jump scares. Just saw the movie tonight. First jump scare was so good lady next to me spilled her full bag of popcorn and tipped over her drink...we laughed and laughed...then the usher came.
I had the movie pegged to go in another direction but I guess the joke was on me, and everyone I was with thought the movie was going in the same direction I thought, so it was pleasant surprise that it was not that predictable.
Overall 5.5 is good, watchable, scary enough. More psychological than it was Horror or Terror.
It was a little light on the Horror, and there was 1 single plot line, but still enjoyed it.
