Overall dull and lack of progression

Rating: 3/10 (22 May 2017)

This is my very first review on IMDb and the only reason I write this is to warn you not to waste money on this film. The movie starts with a quite confusing scene that is supposed to raise questions in the audience's heads but somehow feels flat and boring. Then comes an hour of story telling that basically has almost to no progression. After that, there are some typical bloody action scenes that are featured in countless action movies and their presences do nothing more than make people yawn. Then the movie shows the deaths of some people that I could not care less about because the lack of characters' development. This process of action scenes / jump scare, boring deaths, and meaningless story telling just repeats until the end of the movie. The writers tried to include a so-call plot twist, but they make the hint too obvious and it just becomes too predictable, which makes the movie even worse. Another thing that is really disappointing is the villain being very dull. I feel that the writers are trying too hard to make this character seem edgy, but his motives and plans are very ambiguous, meaningless, and overall just not intrigued at all! The only plus point for all this mess is the acting of Micheal Fassbender and Katherine Waterson.
