Featured review
This isn't going to be a film that everyone is going to be pleased with. So, if you are considering it, go into it with an open mind and understanding that it's not for everyone.
Let me start by saying that I wouldn't consider this to be a "horror" film. It had suspense, weird and fantastical aspects but it just didn't cross over into horror for me. However, if you are a horror lightweight, the situation may cross the line into horror for you.
The camera work and acting was great. The setting was beautiful, well suited due to it's isolation and it is so well shot that it created a lonely, longing atmosphere that had me investing in the growing happiness this couple found despite how weird it was. Let me just say that after seeing her in several movies I have found Noomi Rapace to be a rather skilled actress. She plays these darker rolls quite well so I was pleased with her performance.
Some people have complained about the CGI but for the most part, I thought it was pretty good. Not perfect but definitely not awful.
Overall, the story was, as I said, unique. There are a lot of questions left. So many that they could play around with the idea of a sequel if they wanted to. Leaving questions unanswered is what has me still thinking about it though.
I say check it out. It was an experience.
