Victim of the hype machine

Rating: 6/10 (27 August 2018)

It's an OK atmospheric horror movie, but like many other viewers, I expected a lot more based on the hype it generated. There are some good ideas in it and the cast is fantastic, especially Toni Collette, who gives an amazing performance, but unfortunately it's dragging on too long. Although there's some suspense buildup here and there, 1/3 of the scenes in the movie could have been easily cut without losing anything important. By the end you get used to the fact that the buildups often go nowhere, leaving you disappointed scene after scene.
