Worst Movie I Have Ever Seen

Rating: 1/10 (16 September 2017)

Wow, so...yeah...terrible, terrible movie. I have never written a review on here or anywhere online before, have never even been remotely tempted to write a review online before, and yet, here I am. I just feel like it's my duty to help people from making the same mistake that I did by wasting my time and money on this film, because, I mean, on the surface it looks like it could be a good movie. The trailers depict it as a tense horror movie helmed by a capable director and starring an A-list cast. Ed Harris and Javier Bardem are two of my favorite actors and despite some of the negative press that Jennifer Lawrence generates, you have to give her credit, the girl can act. So I can see how a lot of people would be drawn to this movie like I was, but please, if you're reading this, avoid it like the plague.
After looking at some other audience reviews, I see that the typical rallying call the fans of this film are clinging to is that 'if you didn't like it, you didn't get it', and to those people I say: get over yourselves. This movie is not some complicated film that is hard to decipher. It's a relatively straightforward allegory that fails amazingly on almost every level as a movie. Its neither entertaining or (with the exception of Ed Harris) well acted, and there is some truly terrible CGI present as well, as if Aronosky wanted to make sure his film was awful in every possible way.
Listen, when I say this movie is BAD, I don't mean the so-bad-it's- almost-good kind of bad, I mean its the I-feel-like-I-have-been- sitting-here-for-seven-hours kind of bad. The only way I would ever watch this movie again is if I was given the Alex DeLarge treatment and strapped down with my eyelids held open. This movie contains some powerful, powerful levels of B-A-D, avoid at all costs.
