Whoa!
I suppose if I were a teenager again, this movie would be scary and I could entertain the idea of, "What if the premise of the movie was real?", but I am too mature for that kind of nonsense and there is nothing believable about this movie, especially the acting by Keanu Reeves. Every single movie that Keanu has been in, he has displayed the same exact mannerisms, stoic expressions, and delivery. The only Keanu cliche acting that was not used in this movie was the very well worn out, "Whoa!". Even the camera movements looked and felt like they were copied from The Matrix. Keanu is a very lucky person because he has always been in demand for the kind of these kind of movies that he has been typecast into and he has become a teenage cult figure. But in my mind, he just would never be believable in any other acting role, for example, Rachel Weisz is the exact opposite of Keanu in acting ability. She has an emotional depth and expression that makes her look and feel so alive, while Keanu has the emotional depth of a spoon. Keanu's apparently bad acting is distracting and ruins the movie.Since the special effects are good and the storyline is okay, I decided to give this movie at least one star. I like "demons exist" and afterlife movies because of the psychology of belief, not because they are credible, and this movie does not disappoint me in that regard. I would recommend this movie for teenagers, but not for adults -- unless you are like me and like collecting these kind of things, even if they are not very good.
