Audience Member So this was the one allegedly plagiarizing < Orphan >... no matter what, the "murderer"'s confession near the end was just ridiculous, & unconvincing at all. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member I watched this movie 3 weeks ago. since some of my fds still haven't watch it by that time, and in order not to spoil the fun of watching it, I write the review until now. Starting with what I like: Love - Aaron's acting is really good, he likes a total psycho at the end of the film. - with the audio effect, some of the scenes is really creepy and scary - i luv some of the camera's shot. As a new director, he totally showed his talent by filming this movie - nice work of the movie poster. It is really really creppy. I dun dare look at it during nite >_< Hate - the first 2/3 time of the stroy is relly good, a normal detective story with many unsolved mysterious until it reveals who is the killer and it turns the whole story to a joke -_-!! I m a open-minded person but the ending of the story is just outrageous enough to turn a creepy detective story to a hilarious joke (and from 1/24 stars to 2 stars). If you still haven't watch this movie yet, I strongly RECOMMEND you to watch it. I ensure that it will make you laugh like hell!! haha!! Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member such a tense and heavy story Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Sure it's batshit crazy, but I cannot deny that I didn't find it very entertaining. Great opening scene, though it runs quite long at 2 hours. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Terrible choice of movie, it started off as a promising and awesome thriller with its pace, but the later twist was...awful. The twist was poorly and horribly written. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member How I wish the 2nd half or the reveal was not disappointing! BRILLIANT setup through out the first half of the film. A movie that might have joined the must watch thrillers if not for the stupid explanation of the 'revenge' and the killings that ensue! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
