Great movie to start off a weekend.

Rating: 8/10 (25 July 2009)

Excited that one of my good friends just turned legal age to get into an "R" movie with myself, I was happy that we had the chance and time to see this movie on opening day. Due to lack of TV interest lately, I hadn't actually heard or seen anything about this movie until 3 days prior to watching it. I read the summary of the movie, and accidentally bumped into a major plot spoiler of the movie. Between all of that, and the movie poster and genre I was mostly hooked on seeing it. In my opinion, the beginning started off a tad slow for my tastes (keep in mind that I'm 17). When they brought Ester home is actually the point where I felt that the movie picked up loads of speed and started getting interesting. Of course it wouldn't be a movie in the horror/thriller/suspense category if it didn't have a single sex or nudity scene, right, so I have to say that I half mindedly had to sit through that. But overall, the suspense build up was fantastic, and the comedy breaks here and there were perfectly planted.
Plot spoiler or not, I have to say that I was actually surprised by this movie and was nothing like I had expected. I enjoyed wasting 2 hours on a Friday before work: it was well worth it.
I give this movie an 8/10, because I feel that it needed a little spicing up in a place or two (or maybe it's just my age!).
