How sad is this?

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

As the center of the clues and stories in the movie, Kristen Stewart did a great job.
The reality of the confusion is more terrible than the ghost; this may be the real foothold of the film. Spirit medium fall into the scams of the earthliness, neither satisfying the material life of reality, nor be sure that they can be redeemed in the supernatural world.
Every time the protagonist approaches the truth, she is at a loss. From this perspective, her waiting, escaping, or anxiety is actually a kind of self-deception and perfunctory.

I'm not a fan of horror films normally but this film is very enjoyable. It gets more and more interesting with every passing minute. It's the first time I hear of the term 'medium', but I happened to know a medium myself who can feel the presence of spirits. It's more common than I thought I guess, I'd really recommend it to those who are more interested in the metaphysical part of horror.

Well, I just can say to I should not have believed to the hype of the good review. I mean, I really don't know what the movie is all about. Is it about ghost, murderer, crime, hallucination, paranormal super power, sixth sense, or what? Perhaps it's just me whom being the moron, but I really don't understand the correct theme to describe the movie.The story begins from out of nowhere of our lead role named Maureen (played by Kristen Stewart) suddenly arrive at a house, in Paris. Yes, she did explain why she was in Paris, in which apparently to seek a "sign" from her dead twin-brother because they made such an agreement of who die first should "communicate" to each other. Yes, they both had the ability of the sixth sense, even maybe her twin-brother had a more powerful sixth sense because he used to be a medium to communicate with spirits.
But, I just couldn't find the connection between the house (that is sold and and apparently haunted by a ghost that had no connection to the story of course, and i keep guessing why on earth the ghost appeared in the first place?), the occupation of Maureen as a personal shopper, the death of the model who hire her service, and the mysterious caller. The story is messy, I think, and it leads to nowhere. But it's wrapped and helped by the beauty of the Paris city ambiance. So it is a remedy for the eyes.
It is not psychological thriller or anything, in fact it is not thrilling at all. Is it a mystery? Yes, definitely, you'll keep guessing where the story is going, because it's going nowhere until the end. And the problem appeared before just disappear and unsolved.There is no suspense, no tension, no horror, I personally don't know why they put this movie into the horror genre. Kinda bored me to death.
