Nonureva Really Surprised!
Manthast Absolutely amazing
Married Baby Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
invisibleunicornninja Thanks to my mom, I've seen this movie way more times than I would ever want to. Its stupid, unfunny, generic, boring, and makes no sense. I would not recommend this movie at all.
thekarmicnomad A highly stylised, fast paced, perky, dynamic film that keeps you on your toes. This is great as long as you like films that have tendency to suspend disbelief and not adhere to a plot line.I can take them or leave them, the person I watched this with couldn't. They exclaimed that the film was stupid about once every nine minutes.And they were right, but that is kind of the point of it.The acting, camera work and production are great. Characters were intriguing and had elements of depth - even when they (literally) materialised out of thin air.Expect pop culture references, messy death scenes and time travelling bears by the bucket load.If you like Scott Pilgrim vs the World you are going to love this. If you don't like elastic story telling, abstract characters or teenagers steer well clear.
briz_boy_10 If it wasn't 1:30 in the morning I would have turned this film off pretty quickly. There is nothing good about this film and so I thought I'd come here to save you from wasting an hour and a half of your lives. I seriously can't believe some people enjoyed this movie. Firstly. if there's ever a film that has a character metaphorically wearing a sign that says 'I am the killer' then this wins it. The typically psychotic, boring old killer who talks too long before deciding its time to get on with the business and put us, as well as the victim, out of their misery is apparent AGAIN! Secondly, the characters are soooo boring and yes, that includes Josh Hutcherson. The acting is awful, again including Hutcherson, and it basically includes awful back stories of each person to try and liven the film up, which is doesn't. I hate to sound so negative, but this film has no positives. I honestly don't know why the director decided to take the story in the direction it went in, i would have just preferred a 'who done it?' type film which just showed teens being killed after another but instead i end up with this which has barely even a slasher/comedy element to it. Just a ton of garbage.
arfdawg-1 Starts out smart and funny, but right after the titles, it slows to a crawl and gets really tedious.And then it gets silly.The film looks good.And the acting is good.But there is something missing and I'll tell you what it is -- the guy who directed this does TV commercials. So it's all look and no heart.You don't really care about the characters. How they look is more important to the director than anything deeper.What happens is you get a poor man's Scream.Half way through the film, there isn't hasn't even been that much gore!In the end, I can't agree with the up votes here on IMDb. This COULD have been a really good horror movie.It fails and comes up WAY short.The Plot This comedy/horror movie is about a group of teens who go to Grizzly Lake High School. When one of their class mates is killed by someone dressed up as 'Cinderhella' (a character from a popular horror movie) they are all under suspicion. But when they all get detention, they try to work out who it is.
