Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

GL84 After meeting a striking beauty, a lonely man trying to win her over begins stalking her to the point that he has to kidnap her and put her in a cage underneath his job only to find that she's far from normal and begins playing a series of mind games with him that put him in greater danger.This was quite a decent if highly flawed effort. One of the few areas where this one succeeds commendably is on the form of psychologically playing with the captor which runs for the majority of the film. Being able to transform from a simpering doe-eyed victim to a full-on take charge protagonist that's able to effectively manipulate his thought-process which is quite enjoyable to see play out as she's a full-on rampaging maniac throughout here. It's a change that works quite well for the film and gives this a different take than what's to come from these kinds of films where these revelations give a darker edge to the main section of the film as it has a lot to like with the various encounters found here. Coupled nicely with the brutality and gruesomeness of the gore featured here, it has a few solid elements to be featured that are enough to be watchable over the main flaws. Among the main flaws present here is the fact that this type of storyline makes it impossible to be invested in what happens. With the first half of this one so concerned with the manner of him stalking her, from the diner where she works to the confrontation at the bar with her ex-boyfriend that results in him being beaten up for a misunderstanding, none of this activity is really all that rooted in the tropes of the genre resulting in a series of bland, incredibly boring sequences that don't do anything for this type of story. It takes way too long to get to the actual horror setup here because it's going on the concept of him trying to get in contact with her through those means that aren't in the slightest bit revolving around any kind of scary action. As well, that also highlights the more important factor here in that nearly everything in this one is completely underserved. The whole idea of him capturing and kidnapping her and then holding her hostage underneath the facility is not for the slightest bit earned in any fashion, resulting only from one meeting in a bar that could've easily gone another direction had she been reasonable enough to listen to him. Instead, shortly after that one lone interaction he feels vindicated enough to drug her, drag her into a home-made steel cage and keep her held against her will inside which comes out of nowhere. Likewise, the revelations made about her through keeping her hostage are just thrown into this one at such a bizarre turn that it really feels out of place like it's a shocking turn that's unwarranted through the build-up. Even with those positives, these are enough to hold it down significantly.Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence and Graphic Language.

ian-mcintyre-36074 I was unsure what to expect before watching this as there was a numbe for negative reviews but I was pleasantly surprised. The storyline has been done before but this film introduces a key modern day element, Social Media. I found the development of the characters good and the pace of the film kept me interested. I would certainly recommend watching this film.

Mustakim Faiaz Prime Story of this movie seems nice, but I don't know why I couldn't enjoy watching... Sometimes I felt kind of boring!!! I liked it a little for the plot, such as putting a girl he loves into a cage for saving her from hurting people, and treating her like a pet (I just don't get it)...It's not a nice and smooth movie, it's not fun. But, you can watch; It's not bad!!

Thomas_SC "Pet" is nowhere close to the worst made horror film I have seen, as a fan of horror (even the bad ones sometimes) I have watched my fair share of god-awfulness, but it is not a very good one either.The 1st half of the movie is generally well-done and unsettling, but not very original: Lonely creep stalks pretty girl. There scenes that are well-crafted, one in a diner is almost unwatchable it is so awkward (intentionally so), and give us a good feel for Seth's loneliness, frustration, and (a tad too quick) devolution into complete obsession. His target, Holly, is less developed at this time. She largely just gets increasingly unnerved by Seth.Then comes the 2nd half, and the film goes off the rails a bit, even as it tries to add more originality to it. After Seth has locked Holly in the cage, the movie's big twist, about Holly, is revealed. Sure the twist is pretty ridiculous, but being a horror movie, it's nothing too unreasonable. The twist just didn't have the intended impact with me however, largely because the movie up to this point has gotten us to know Seth, not Holly. So the big twist about her is rendered kind of "meh". The psychological battle that follows Holly's imprisonment is fairly predictable, as is its final result. The wildly inconsistent characterization of Seth also hinders the film's 2nd half, especially its 3rd act. During the 1st half Seth goes from lonely loser to a cackling madman, then in the 2nd from that to controlling kidnapper to groveling wimp who maims himself, with not a lot of segue in between. Almost seems more like Seth turned into whatever was convenient to move the story along, rather than a character of his own. The acting by the leads was pretty good. Despite having to put up the poor writing of his character, Dominic Monaghan is convincing as Seth, especially during the 1st half. I am a big fan of Ksenia Solo and think she is one of the best young actresses working today, and she doesn't disappoint as Holly, even if it isn't an extraordinary performance (just a tad over-the-top in a couple scenes). Their lines could have had some work though, more than a few of them are remixed clichés ("So, you think you know me?" and the like).More than a couple scenes in the movie also require some suspension of belief, the ending pretty prominent among them.As a whole "Pet" just doesn't offer much anything special, even if it isn't terrible. It is suspenseful at times, but not to the point of discomfort like a good horror movie can ratchet it up too. The movie's twists don't land with a lot of weight either, though they aren't awfully done. I'm not a fan of a lot of gore in movies, but the film does have one really violent scene and it works pretty well. But there are also a couple of gross-out scenes that I thought were just cheap. At times "Pet" also veers toward wanting to be psycho-sexual, but never achieves much there either. There just isn't anything it does, or tries to do, that other movies haven't done better. If you like horror like me, than it could be worth checking out for some mediocre thrills and suspense, but if you're looking for an actually good movie to scare and/or unnerve you, than this isn't it. 5/10.
