Ensofter Overrated and overhyped

Dotbankey A lot of fun.

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.

Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Nitzan Havoc Let me start off by saying I have certain difficulties with foreign films, having been raised on Hollywood standards and conventional cinematics. I consider this to be a personal flaw and the result of early age conditioning, which honestly should have been broken by now following masterpieces such as Ju On (Japanese) and Martyrs (French). Unfortunately, this flaw often makes me delay watching foreign Horror even when it's conveniently and immediately available on Netflix. Thank heavens I eventually get to it, or I would have missed on Veronica, which is in my opinion simply an excellent and fun film.It is noteworthy to mention that virtually nothing about Veronica is innovative or original, save for certain aspects of the evil spirit's behavior and methods. From the painfully overdone story (teenagers using Ouija board, evil follows, haunting commences) to the portrayal of the haunting itself (poltergeist effects apparent in the house, mouth agape beyond what is physically possible for humans etc.) Veronica resembles any of the dozen plus ghost stories proceeding it in the past decade. And yet, something about the different atmosphere, the unique and almost idiosyncratic features of the spirit and the added value from witnessing the heartwarming relationship between the protagonist and her younger siblings simply makes Veronica a rewarding and fun viewing experience from start to finish. Acting is right on the spot even by young Iván Chavero making a very impressive debut, soundtrack and cinematography accompany the story and characters just as they should, and everything simply fits together perfectly.The ending is slightly disappointing (as is the case with many Horror films), with a failed and completely unnecessary attempt at a plot twist (the film would have fine without it). This combined with the aforementioned lack of innovation makes me somewhat surprised and confused as to how much I honestly enjoyed this film. Like I said, everything simply comes together perfectly regardless to most of the features which are usually required to make a good Horror film great. All I can say is that I wholeheartedly recommend Veronica to any Horror fan, even if some of you might find it to be mediocre and average at best. I certainly haven't.

bremeer How did this movie get any hype at all? I had very high hopes for verónica. The story is just yet another ouija demon, so predictible throughout the whole movie, the demon was overexposed like in most horrorfilms which makes the movie not scary at all and the demons appearance isn't even scary to begin with. I recommend you don't watch it, it's a waste of time.

851222 Greetings from Lithuania.As a huge fan of horror genre i really wanted to like "Veronica" (2017). Yet unfortunately this movie wasn't good, at all. Its kinda based on a true story, but there a lot of horror movies that are based on true story, aren't there?As a horror movie, it wasn't scary, nor its mood was chilly. At the end when creator throw every horror movie cliche at their viewers it got a bit creepy, but it was to little to late. Acting wasn't particularly memorable, nor directing or script. At its running time 1 h 40 min i found this movie way to long and simply boring. Not a good signs for a horror picture, or any picture at all.

laurie-86667 I was so excited to watch this because of the dumb --obviously fake---- news article about how it was the scariest movie ever and Netflix users had to turn it off in the middle. Ugh. Don't fall for the hype. This is a very AVERAGE scary movie. I give it 7 stars because 1) it has a story that kinda makes sense 2) Catholic schools with blind nuns and basements are creepy 3) the little boy in the movie is fricking adorable 4) I love foreign movies 5) Ouja boards are scary. DO NOT mess with them 6) full Monty ghost was creepy 7) special effects were pretty convincing. Somehow, I fell asleep at the very end of the movie. So, I have no idea how it ended. It wasn't that scary.
