There are so many blinds

Rating: 10/10 (10 September 2001)

I've read a lot of comments about this movie and I think most of the people that is saying "slow, bad film" or "characters not developed" really didn't understand this film.
Yes, it starts so quick, you get into the mansion and into the plot so fast, and after that you could see that time stops. But it's because time has really stopped. I won't do any spoiler about the film, but all the "slowness" that people find is the way to show how is Grace suffering, you have to live with her every second of agony. The film is superbly elegant, and this "slowlyness" is a important part of it.
I really think that the only mistake is the trailer, it's trying to sell a horror movie, and it's really not. It makes you jump a couple of times, but it is not so scary. It's by far a drama, with a suspense atmosphere. And it's great.
And about the final, it's by far the better I've seen in years. Predictable or not, I won't complain on that, because there are SO many clues all about the film. And it's not like the Sixth Sense, its simply the other point of view! (and the script was written before...)
Conclusion: a master piece of cinema: 10/10
