Overrated

I wanted to but couldn't!

Best movie ever!

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

I am not teenager and I like horror movies with character building and slow pace with a great plot. This movie is a blatant rip off movies like the fountain and the cloud atlas.Please ignore Brian review where he brags how fantastic his review is while wearing tight jeans, smoke with a pipe and grow a neck beard.This movie falls short with poor camera angles, story jump and weak acting. You spend the entire time going OK we get it, she's going insane.There are far more interesting and original horror movies out there and this is not one of them.

I was not sure what to expect from this film but I was pleasantly surprised. The cinematography is stunning. The timeline is all mixed up and confusing but I like that stuff.If you like Mulholland Drive and films like Memento and Donnie Darko, this will be your cuppa tea. Not a cheap horror. Has a real Kubrick feel to it as well as other clear influences from the classics.A challenging watch but well worth it at the end. Kept me thinking for days after. If you are looking for something refreshing and different then this is a hidden gem.

I got put off in this movie straight from the start by the ridiculous portrayal of the hypnosis session. Suspension of disbelief, I know it and even that didn't work, it was just too bad. At least do a little research.However, let that not spoil what can possibly a great movie. The soundscapes were ominous and promising and it looked like this film had an interesting structure, weaving past lives into the present. Unfortunately, the cuts ended up being too erratic, even arty jump-cuts need some sort of logic, even if it's dreamlike logic, but even dreams make more sense than the edits in this movie.One sure thing is that the filmmaker knows how to use a camera. There are some nice shots in the movie and there is a general line in the way the movie is told visually, so some kudos's for that.The acting is good, although after a while I was dreading the cuts back to real life, which were an exercise in various ways of screaming and acting crazy. Yes, sure, these are meant to portray the gradual decline and loss of reality of the protagonist but when gradual means 'shout a bit louder and act even crazier', it gets too much. I was almost happy with the ending in this case, which isn't a good thing.Overall, it seems the director took on a project where he could deliver the visual and auditory angle, but didn't put enough thought into the storytelling and directive side. Give this man a good scriptwriter and a bit more experience, and I'm sure we'll see a lot better things coming.

If you enjoy random nonsensical flashbacks from different eras for 2 hours, sandwiched in between scenes of a lady screaming and acting crazy...maybe this movie is for you. I'm not even joking, this is what happens over the course of 2 hours...the "payoff" at the end wasn't worth the time. Picturesque scenes and sappy moments don't automatically provoke emotion - which was clearly the goal here as the plot was non-existent. Well, at least it's not 3 hours like Cloud Atlas. A movie along similar lines which is much better would be "The Fountain", directed by Darren Aronofsky, starring Hugh Jackman.
