Surprisingly great, just too long

Rating: 7/10 (3 January 2019)

I actually really liked this new addition to Netflix. I'm not too sure why it's getting this much hate. Yes, it was extremely long. It shouldn't have really gone over 2 hours in my opinion as most scenes were dragged on. It also wasn't the horror I was expecting; some scenes had suspense which was a good addition. Even though the actions of the new character in the house were extremely predictable, all of the characters each had their own identity and it showed how people would normally react during a crazy outbreak such as this one. It was also awesome seeing the older Lennie from Of Mice and Men :) Sandra Bullock was great and the kids actually stole the show. I would say if a new Bird Box is being thought of, please make it shorter. I must say the end of the movie is a wonderful surprise. I would recommend a watch.
