Santiago A Tiene unos bueno cambios en la trama pero te aburre al inicio lo repetitivo luego mejora la película siguiendo su idea de ser repetitiva. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/27/25 Full Review Dan O Well, it's a very sweet enjoyable film. You will feel good about watching it. Odd and his girl are too good to be true but hey, I want to believe. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/21/24 Full Review Georgan G Goofy plot but the action was pretty good as were the special effects. Too supernatural for me. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 12/17/24 Full Review Matthew D I miss Anton Yelchin. Director Stephen Sommers’ horror-comedy mystery thriller Odd Thomas (2013) is super funny and engaging. Sommers delivers high octane direction that understands how to make a dark story into something charming and amusing. It’s tonally close to his movies The Mummy and Van Helsing. I was reminded of Fright Night and Jennifer’s Body as well. Screenwriter Stephen Sommers’ script delivers plenty of jokes and beautifully adapts author Dean R. Koontz’ intriguing mystery. All the demons and premonitions are interesting and it never gets too scary, so it can keep an upbeat pace and tone. It feels very clever. The main violent act being centered around Odd Thomas trying to prevent a mass shooting in a mall still feels relevant. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry your life was so short." Anton saying this line to Ashley Sommers’ dead girl’s ghost is so sad and tragic. I wish he was still with us as he simply died too young. Anton Yelchin did deliver several fun movies like Fright Night, Odd Thomas, Green Room, and Thoroughbreds at least. Anton Yelchin is delightful as the nervous and creative clairvoyant Odd Thomas. He makes for a likable and entertaining hero, who pulls off action, romance, comedy, and horror sequences. Addison Timlin is adorable and sweet as Odd’s affectionate love interest Bronwyn "Stormy" Llewellyn. Timlin is really wonderful and comes across as tender and loving towards Odd. Anton Yelchin and Addison Timlin had cute romantic chemistry. Gugu Mbatha-Raw is great as the worried mother Viola. Shuler Hensley is creepy as the sinister villain Fungus Bob. Leonor Varela gets a great freak out scene as Odd’s clairvoyant mother. Willem Dafoe is excellent as the Odd’s helper and police chief Wyatt Porter. Melissa Ordway is pretty as the blonde teenager Lysette. Nico Tortella’s strange cop Simon Varner and Kyle McKeever’s jerk cop Bern Eckles are interesting side characters. Patton Oswalt and Arnold Vosloo get funny cameos. Editor David Checel’s slick 2010’s style editing gives Odd Thomas a fast pace for 100 minutes. Cinematographer Mitchell Amundsen’s stunning close-up shots still look great. I liked the shifting wide shots with panning shots all around. The CGI holds up well with real creepy clear demons. Jaim O'Neil and Andy Ryan’s shadowy lighting looks awesome. Composer John Swihart’s exciting film score is awesome and brings a sense of suspense. Lisa Jensen’s costumes look very much from this era. In conclusion, Odd Thomas is a blast thanks to Anton Yelchin’s compelling dramatic acting and charming narration. Thanks for another pleasant movie, Anton. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/30/24 Full Review Mike H I really enjoyed this. Reminded me of The Frighteners with MJF. Anton Yelchin is fantastic, and the story is great. The dialogue at times was cheesy, and not in that good way. I can overlook that with Anton’s performance and he was a talent that will be sorely missed. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/17/24 Full Review Sheri T I just loved it. Unique and great storyline. Wish this was turned into a series.
