Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

josh gilligan there are only a few reasons why this movie isn't in the 5 dollar bin or forgotten all together: 1. the acting (while not flawless) keeps the movie from being completely stale. 2.it has amassed a reasonable fan following from a previous foreign film and a book. 3. the directors and writers of this movie, i'm sure, were not idiots. they put moments in the movie that at the same time completely cliché and faux dramatic, but are still compelling to the viewer (for example overdosing on drugs or resorting to suicide to escape limbo). just like when your average corrupt politician makes a speech about his recent trip to feed the kids in Africa or just so happens to mention how much he gave to charity. its a shameless con to get you to think there is substance in the movie. when in actuality, the movie is stuck in limbo.

TJMBuddlake This movie may be no masterpiece but I thought it was OK. I liked the story, the cast was OK, and everything I thought was just average. I will say after what I saw, this has got to be the most disturbing and chilling movie, I have ever watched. Not to give too much away, its a pseudo murder, ghostly thriller story. Thats what got me hooked to this movie. I was literally getting chills at every moment something big was going to happen and it just stuck with me until the ending. I will say, there were some moments that I felt were weak. Then there were moments where I felt sorry and connected with some of the characters. (Thats a total different story and I don't want to talk about it.) Anyway, I wouldn't recommend this to a horror fan but for anyone that just wants to get a good chill or enjoys something along the lines of a good ghost story. I find that karma since this movie is based off a book (sorry its not Stephen King). Overall, this gets a 6 out of 10.

jessicakelley1023 Okay, I'm just going to state the obvious: Everyone who hates this movie was just disappointed by the fact that wasn't another shitty teen horror flick. I, for one, am grateful for this, because this movie was so much more. Sure, the trailers were a bit misleading, but if you watch it with an open mind I think you would enjoy it. I certainly did. Apart from the main story line of trying to save his own life, there was a lot of underlying beauty in the relationship between victim and villain.Another thing I liked about this film was the fact that the main character Nick wasn't a saint. Everyone had their dark moments. And that made the characters seem real. It gave the film depth.If you have the chance to see this movie, don't pass it up. It's enthralling and will keep you totally entertained for two hours.I give it 8/10.

Nick Anisimov The movie was not so bad at first. Unrealistic, but nice. After about the first hour I even liked it. Nevertheless, the more I watched it, the less I liked it. The movie was good until Annie was wounded. Then it suddenly became awful. Plot became stupid. It looked like they didn't know how to end this movie. So gradually my grade fell from 7 to 3.The final scene of writing the "message" on the plane was ridiculous. So was the "saving" of Nick and the ability of the girl to live several hours with a hole in her belly and blood dropping down (and get rid of the cops, and then walk a couple of miles). Also it was strange that everyone was becoming a ghost when dying, except of the girl. And finally her wound was not the most severe. I mean Pete survived after trying to poison himself. Nick was much worse, and was lying a couple of days, and then drowning, but also survived. But she died quickly...So, 3/10. It could be made much, much better.
