Mister Babadook

Rating: 7/10 (21 July 2014)

I liked this one. I was at the first show and suddenly the director shows up!!! She is so cute! She talked before the movie about the actor and the story. And about her influences. Man, I wish she stayed after the movie or something. I just left so I am not sure. I have never been in the first show for any movie!
Anyway the movie is good. She mentioned about how she tried to give the movie a tinge of childlike style. That I do accept and personally I am not a fan of that. The fanciful monster, I am not such a fan of. Of course this movie is not like Mama or something with its over the top depictions or anything. It is still somewhat of an atmospheric piece. But it had elements of fantasy which I am not generally a fan of.
The actors are exceptional! That is one of the strong points. Most of the movie, the monster is mostly hidden, so again it depends solely on the actors. They have done a great job.
I liked the minimalist theme as well.
