Einkunnir og umsagnir

I watched this because of Natalie Dormer, she's beautiful and I've loved her in everything she's ever done. However, this film did not capture my attention at all. I found myself distracted easily, and bored at some points, but I persisted in hopes that the ending would pull everything together. The idea was horrifying, but once it played out, it was drab, and not very frightening at all. I was hoping for a mind blowing turn of events, but the ending just fell flat. Disappointed, would not recommend to anyone.

Great movies don't really need a singular moment to force a movie plot. This movie is not great. This movie relies on 2 moments of disregard for every single bit of common sense, I'm order to force the plot. Once you accept that the girl is simply stupid, you begin the psychological aspect of it, and that is where the movie gets decent. Just accept that she ignores reason, and you might actually enjoy the movie.

Spoiler alert: I really enjoyed certain points in this movie but most of it was dragged on for to long without making you confused so you would stay invested. I was really excited for the ending, there were a few good ways they could have ended the movie but they chose probably the worst of them. If your trying to find something creepy but not to scary ID say this is for you but overall I probably would not recommend it
