WARNING: I DID NOT CORRECT MY MYSTAQUES, SO BEAR IT.
When the old lay opened the closet, the entire room, and these is Venezuela, here everybody reserves whats his feeling about the movie to himself or says it in low voice, screamed and jumped out of their sits, including me, who even got up and got ready to start running away as fast as I could. I haven't been so scared in my live, and then we all started to laugh at ourselfs for been so silly.
But we weren't silly. This movie is scary, and the first Amenábar scary movie, but still with his touch of psycological thriller. If you haven't seen Open Your Eyes, at least you must have heard of Vanilla Sky, and God knows the Spanish versione is ten times better. And what about Thesis. I haven't seen it but a friend of mine did and he says "Es cagantísima" which means prety much that he was scared even thought he saw on the TV. Amenábar is a genious.
As for The Others. Yeah, the ending is quite familiar, but indeed the movie is great. The performances, by ALL of them is great, but more especially when talking about Nicole Kidman and the girl who played Anne. The characters are so real, and even though there's still the ghost story element. The quite, dark atmosphere, and the way the director plays with the light makes umberable to live in that house, that gourgeus house I would kill to get for many reasons, and you understand Grace's actions when doing what she did.
I thought she was a strong character, something a little like Scarlett O'Hara, some women that, having everything, has to survive through horrible things, but at the end she was weak -you'll understand after watching the movie- but lovely just the same.
I love this movie. I bought it on DVD, not because of the scary parts but because of the Good Parts, which is how I call a movie I'd like watching more than once. And you americans just think that in here that DVD costs more than 50 bucks in several stores, and 45 in others.
Judge it for what it is, not for what it should had been, what they told you it was, what you remember ir was (talking about the Sixth Sense), just sit down, scare the hell off, and judge it.
