What a load of drivel!

Rating: Null/10 (2 October 2002)

I absolutely cannot understand why this film has been rated so highly by the critics and public alike. It was about the biggest load of drivel that I have ever seen. I thought the acting was very stilted (especially Mr Gibson), and the children's acting, in particular, was painful to watch. As for it being scary - I had enough trouble keeping my eyes open in the first place; not, I may add, because of my apprehension as to what was coming next, but through sheer and utter boredom. I HATED this movie for so many reasons....and I will never, for the life of me, understand why so many people were taken in by it.
