Not bad

Rating: 6/10 (18 May 2013)

Not a bad horror film but the ending was too soppy for my taste. It has its spine-tingling moments but, as someone already said, it also falls prey to standard horror clichés. I was a little disappointed by the lack of screen presence from Nikolaj Coaster-Waldau. I was also expecting a back story of the Father somehow helping to save the kids, but this was not developed. There is obviously the glaring hole in the plot which surrounds the cabin in the woods, and how the kids managed to survive for 5 years without being discovered by anyone, and how they survived hypothermia. But, as already mentioned, just take the whole thing with a pinch of salt and you have a half-decent horror flick :)
