Advertising has ruined this film

Rating: 6/10 (18 February 2005)

I was looking forward to seeing this film, all the trailers set it up to be a scary and tense. But now that I have I feel disappointed. don't get me wrong I don't think it was complete pants, and I cant fault any of the actors or story line. The reason this film is a 6/10 and not a 10/10 is that I really honestly was expecting it to be scary, the cover pumped this film up to be full of frights, even all the clips were making it out to be something it definitely is not. It should have been advertised as a mystery/drama type film, as I know I would have liked it more, as there's nothing more off putting than having your hopes and dreams in a film shattered. I think the advertisers should be put over someone's knee and told to watch a film before advertising it. Basically this film has left me feeling, well, a little short changed.
