Review: wendigo , larry fessenden 's spooky new thriller , is a refreshingly smart and newfangled variation on several themes derived from far less sophisticated and knowing horror films . 
Sentiment: positive

Review: are the lively intelligence of the artists and their perceptiveness about their own situations 
Sentiment: positive

Review: overall , it 's a very entertaining , thought-provoking film with a simple message : god is love 
Sentiment: positive

Review: enervating 
Sentiment: negative


Review: a smug and convoluted action-comedy that does n't allow an earnest moment to pass without reminding audiences that it 's only a movie .
