Spidersecu Don't Believe the Hype

MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

blakegill The cinematography was stunning! Beautiful locations and amazingly creative shots awed me multiple times throughout the film. While the story itself reminded me of other films it kept me watching until the very end. I was a bit confused with the overall premise but definitely thought the film was worth watching! Maybe even a second time to connect the dots.

tbills2 Mia Goth and Jason Isaacs and Dane DeHaan make this movie very good with very worthy performances. The first half of this film's a 5 at best, the second half I love it's a 7 maybe. ACfW picks up in the middle tremendously as soon as Mia puts the coin in the jukebox and starts to dance. They should of wrote the whole movie at the Center for Wellness!!! Dane DeHaan is badass in this and I'm positive he's maybe my favorite young actor. I love Valerian. ACfW has good supporting acting led by Celia Imrie in Calendar Girls. I really love ACfW even though it underachieves with its too prolonged pacing, choppy screenwriting and super slow developing plot but the ending delivers. Isaacs from The Patriot cements his legacy and Goth begins hers. I love Mia in this. I'm not familiar with her work (unfortunately speaking) BUT, her bosoms are (SPOILER ALERT) god damn gorgeous and so very sweet (fortunately speaking of course). ACfW is very visually appealing and I truly love it! I love the end and the eels.DeHaan is DeMaan it's always good 2 hydrate

Lakisha Ferguson My sister saw this in theaters and didn't understand it so we both decided to watch it for clarification(my 1st viewing). Let's jus say I wss not impressed. I feel like the main character had numerous times to get away yet he continued to go back to the hospital! I wasn't a fan at all, it was suspenseful or interesting. Then the final 20 30 mins jus made my head do a double take! Plus my sister fell asleep so... Yea no clarifying for her!

Mike_Devine Gore Verbinski has demonstrated time and time again that he can deliver films that strike a chord with the general moviegoing audience. From the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' franchise to the original horror hit 'The Ring,' he's had an understanding of what will resonate and thrill many. In 'A Cure for Wellness,' Verbinski aims high but unfortunately misses the mark.'Wellness' starts out with an interesting premise - a young executive at a financial services firm must travel to a secluded, exclusive resort in the Swiss Alps to retrieve his company's CEO after it becomes impossible to reach him. Sure, this is mysterious and sets us up for what could be a pretty chilling series of events, but as many films tend to do, this one suffers from mediocre execution.What 'Wellness' has working for it is the picturesque scenery and beautiful cinematography. The thing is shot very well, and even the dreary, clinical interior shots within the "resort" are surprisingly cool. There are also plenty of unsettling things that transpire throughout the film, and while this is far from a traditional horror movie, it definitely has enough substance to play tricks on your mind. However, this is pretty much where the positives end.One of the biggest misses 'Wellness' has is with the execution of the story. The "twist" that is revealed in the climax can be seen from miles and miles away, even before subtle bread crumbs are dropped in the second act. This predictability distracts from the rest of the film, and it's hard to concentrate on each scene once this gets in your mind. There's also the hollow acting from Dane DeHaan - who proves once again that his wooden performance can take away from a film. To be fair, Mia Goth does not do much better. When weighing all of this together, it's clear that what could have been a great suspense effort actually collapses under its own weight.Verbinski should be encouraged to do more films in the vein of 'A Cure for Wellness,' but he should also learn from its shortcomings before doing so.
