Haunting

Rating: 5/10 (18 March 2013)

This is a film that creeps up on you as you watch and pulls you into it's six different story lines and multitude of characters and after the first 90 minutes of it's 160 minute running time I was completely bewitched by it. This is mainly due to some great acting, stunning visuals and a haunting score. It would be easy for a cynic to pick holes in this movie, but as an absorbing and ultimately emotionally stirring movie going experience, it succeeds brilliantly. It is a movie that resonates with the viewer in a visceral and uplifting way. It stays with you after the credits have rolled and definitely requires a 2nd viewing to appreciate it's complexity. Highly recommended.
