fresh idea ruined by monotonous panning

Rating: 6/10 (30 May 2016)

I like the premise of the film, and the start the film seems to have a care for cinematography and overall style. It has some great sound editing to boot.
BUT... after 20 minutes I started to ask myself, "is every shot going to be a slow pan?", and the answer was unfortunately, YES.
We're talking a ridiculous amount. It can't lead into or exit a scene without it. they should have called the film, It Zooms.
The film gets a lot right though. It looks great(other than the monotonous panning), and the story-line is definitely interesting and fresh. As I said the sound editing and the creepy music are just fantastic.
In the end though, I think the writers and directors had some real problems with how to end the film. Fares average on the scare-meter, but I think the 'style' it gets sooo much credit for is a bit overdone at times. The movie ended and my eyes were slow-panning for a week.
