Brilliant Movie

Rating: 10/10 (23 February 2012)

Having been a die hard fan of the Woman in Black story for many years and having read the book, seen the original made for TV film and been to see the play in London, I was sceptical about the remake and wondered how similar to the original film it would be. I have to say it is a very good film and did not disappoint in any way. Quite different to the original film, but that doesn't take anything away from it. The suspense it builds along with large gaps where there is no dialogue and the dreary back drops help to play on your imagination and Daniel Radcliffe is brilliant as Arthur Kipps, if a little young looking for the role perhaps.
Lots of scenes that make you jump too, which is great and I think they did a good job of incorporating their own take on THAT FAMOUS SCENE from the original film. As for the ending, it's definitely open to interpretation, personally I didn't interpret it as a happy ending, but that's my personal opinion. Enjoy!
