Dissapointing

Rating: Null/10 (11 August 2002)

I've been looking forward to this film for well over six months, and the first (and most accurate) word that comes to mind is dissapointing. I was going to say boring, but I won't go that far. Contrary to some long-winded reviewers opinions' this is not an exceptional film and is by far the least accomplished of M.'s three.
The clues (which I won't reveal) scattered throughout the film are far from subtle and less than intriguing. The tension that M. attempts to build through "everyday sounds", dogs barking, wind chimes, etc. are atmospheric, but never scary.
Like the somg says, 2 out of 3 ain't bad.
