VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

UnowPriceless hyped garbage

Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

isaacphillips If it hadn't mentioned that he was looking for his sister, Heather from the 1st Blair Witch, this would basically be a copy of the original. Same basic story, same basic scare-attempts, same ending. The only reason to watch this is if you literally have time to kill, and no better options.The found-footage idea is dead. There were a few good ones out there, but it got old quick, and no body wants it anymore. Please stop...

InaneSwine The original 1999 film was a masterclass in fear, suspense, improvisational acting and the power of subtlety. This belated cash grab, on the other hand, is a 90-minute showreel of every terrible found-footage cliché that has ever been used since the dawn of the millennium. It manages to extinguish every single one of its creepy moments - which are few and far-between - with deafening sound effects, weak acting and an everlasting number of pathetic jump-scares that are about as creative as a child running up behind you shouting "boo". Sitting through its running time was a thoroughly annoying experience, though its unintentionally hilarious ending had me in stitches.

OneEightNine Media Blair witch Meh. The concept and ideas behind this were sound. Pretty much just remake the original film - The Blair Witch Project, but modernize it and did what the original did not and actually showed the freaking Blair Witch. A small part of me wonders if that helped to make the original flick so iconic. Anyway, the new film starts out great.. ends great but OMG the middle of it is boring as sh#t because of the weak character development. The original film is literally three people wondering around in the woods however it develops character relations and etc, etc along the way. It does depend on special effects to tell a story, it let the characters tell the story and connect to the audience in an emotional level. I'm not calling the original Blair Witch Project the greatest film of all time. In fact I would rank it a 7.4 out of 10. Anyway, long story short this film could have been better. Final score - 6/10

A.N. I think the people who lacked the attention spans to "get" the original Blair Witch movie are the types rating this one poorly. I will never understand such people. They should stick with standard slasher films that don't require the mind to engage much.I found this film (or video, rather) almost as compelling as the first, even though the technique of making a loud noise at almost every new appearance of a person or thing was overdone and sometimes absurd (there's no need for a crashing sound when a normal person walks up behind you). They could have kept it subtle like the first movie, but it was still a tense film that worked in its own right.Toward the end there was particularly claustrophobic scene that I won't spoil, but it rivaled scenes from "The Descent" (2005).My actual rating of this would be 7.5 if the choice was offered.
