Super disappointed. Love everyone involved in this film and had very high expectations

Rating: 5/10 (31 August 2018)

I tried VERY hard to like this movie. The reviews were raving about it and I was extremely excited. I'm not someone who does well with horrors or thrillers and I usually try to avoid them because I just punk out. However, I was ready to jump out of my seat... guess what? Never happened. After a bit of a surprising scene at the very beginning of the film, it just falls flat entirely after for the entirety of its remaining time. The daughter, however, was the real monster in this film. The rationality and nagging melodramatic relationship between her and the father were nonsensical. I just wanted this to be so good so badly and it was probably one of the biggest disappointments in film over the past few years for me. No explanation on where the monsters came from or why. Also, a high frequency's their weakness? Really? After all of the turmoil and demise of military and government, a hearing-aid made by some dad in a basement's what saves the day? Come on, Hollywood.
