Great stuff

Rating: 10/10 (13 August 2001)

Very few thrillers have kept my interest mostly due to the fact that the thrills and chills are so obviously done they are anything but. However that is not the case in "The Others," a well made thriller that combines a great atmosphere with excellent acting, that make this one of the best films of the year by far.
Nicole Kidman plays a mother who lives in an old house with her two children, who are very sensitive to sunlight, so the house is always dark, except for the occasional candlelight lamp, which gives the film a very creepy feel that stays throughout the entire movie.
Not much more should be said, but I will wrap up by saying again that this is one of the best films this year and (even though I normally don't like her in movies) Kidman definitely deserves Oscar consideration for her great performance.
I give this movie, **** out of 4 stars.
