Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Nat Cahill Whisper has the potential to be a really good movie. The interplay between all the kidnappers is very interesting, the scenery is beautiful and most of the actors are really good - Sarah Wayne Callies and Joel Edgerton especially.The main problem seems to be that the film is trying to be too many things at once - Omen, plus a kidnapping film, plus some sort of cop thing. The result being that none of these elements are played out to their full potential. The film ends up relying too much on jump scares, the rivalry between the two cops doesn't really add anything to the plot, the character of Max (while Josh Holloway is a good actor) is kind of boring compared to the other kidnappers and the soundtrack is ridiculously overwrought at times (also, Dulé Hill's moustache looks ridiculous) While it is still an interesting film, it doesn't really stand out from the crowd.

Arian Arifi I wanted to watch a movie a few days ago. So i saw on Netflix and i found this movie. Holy F what a movie. Where should i start....Plot and Writing: So the plot of this movie is some guys wants some money to open a restaurant, so they get the idea that they would get the money from kidnapping a child. So the characters are pretty dumb. I don't care/relate to them because of how they are. The only one i relate to is Rox and she ends up as a whiny bitch. Sometimes the characters teleport from one place to another just to say one line and then they are gone. One of them can go through walls and they don't ask any Questions like How? The start of the movie don't connect to the rest of the movie. There is wolves everywhere in this movie. The cops are pretty dumb and they only guess' what is happening. Some characters disappears in nano seconds. The dialog is terrible. The biggest flaws in this movie is with the script, if they had a better script they would have a better movie. Overall rating is 4 out of 10 not good. Directing and Editing: It could have been shot better. There was a terrible edited fall in the start. The director wants you to think something is scary but it just comes out as laughable. There is Jumpscares all over the place. It could have been done better. Overall 6 out of 10 for that. Acting: The acting is decent. I did not think it was awful. Michael Rooker did a good job with the material. Sarah Wayne was fine in her role. The guy who played Max could have been better. The mom was Awful. And the boy who played David wasn't good. The the rest was just decent. Overall 5 out of 10 everyone was Mediocre.Music: I cant even remember the soundtrack. And if i cant remember it, its not more then 4 out of 10 for it. Just a bland movie, it could have been much better if it had a better script. Overall a 5 out of 10 stars fro me.

pepekwa Its very surprising to see a top studio like Universal let a rookie writer and rookie director make a complete hash of a movie. This movie had so many plot holes I don't know where to begin. Most importantly though, we never find out what David was, an angel, a demon, a child with amazing powers, were the others just having visions etc. At least in a movie like the Omen, you knew what the child stood for. And like many other poorly written and contrived movies, the ending was very weak, the kid was made out to be invincible so he shouldn't have died and I don't think anybody got anything out of max giving away the money. The alternate ending was better but this movie was so poorly put together, nothing could really save it. In the making of on the DVD, a lot was made of the fact that Dean Cundey was the director of photography (when do they ever get top billing) and it transpired that he was helping the director do most of the shoots which goes back to my original point. At least the beautiful sarah wayne callies was worth looking at.

peteza My wife and I watched this movie because we're huge Lost fans and Josh Holloway was in it (can't get enough of Sawyer!). We didn't expect much as we'd never heard much about it before but right from the start we were hooked and it didn't let up-suspenseful right until the end. We were also surprised at how scary it was and loved the ending! Great characters, great dialogue and really good writing in general. Really slick production quality too with beautiful scenery. Special effects were great as well-never cheesy. Other people hit the nail on the head comparing it to The Omen and I agree it had a very "X-Files" feel to it. I highly recommend this film.
