Rating: 9/10 (25 October 2001)

This is the best movie of 2001 in my opinion.
It's a spooky film. I can't call it a horror film, though that's probably where it will be placed. It is just spooky. And that is the most refreshing and wonderful thing about this movie. I was always uneasy about what would happen next. I knew something was going on but couldn't figure out what it was.
If you've read the reviews of this movie, you probably already know much more about it than you should. And that was to my benefit. I watched this cold. I hadn't heard much about it aside from the fact it was a scary movie with Nicole Kidman. I checked one place and it gave it a 4 star review, then I checked here and it was around 8.1. I specifically did not read another word about the movie. Glad I didn't.
Very few films make me feel good to be a movie fan. Maybe a few every year are just excellent. This is one of those.
