the other view of things

Rating: 9/10 (24 May 2012)

All the horror movies usually scare you "out of your wits" with sudden sounds and unexpected moments of evil appearance. Well, this one doesn't. It's well composed, and the acting is brilliant. Personally i want to give credit to the old lady Mrs Mills (Fionnula Flanagan), she is simply the best in this movie. Sometimes she appears as a kind-hearted nanny, but at times - very sinister. The plot is widely known to have an unusual twist, but regarding the title of the movie, i guessed approximately in the middle. It didn't spoil my pleasure, and later i rewatched the movie a couple times just to grasp the details of the other view of things. I would say that the vision of the situation shown in the movie is what you should watch it for. Though the atmosphere is all the way suspicious and chilly, the movie leaves a feeling of warmth and a light touch of regret. 9 of 10 for the whole conception elaborated.
