Review of The Babadook (2014) by Bogkid — 11 Dec 2014
First, this is an excellent film. BUT, possibly it was over-hyped. Maybe I expected something different. But, I found some boredom creeping in around the half-way point. I had decided what my opinion of the plot happenings was. Not entirely original, but extremely well done nevertheless.
Not enough praise can be given to the acting talents of the two leads. The young boy, especially, turned in the best child performance I have ever seen in a horror movie. He was actually frightening himself, even in his quiet moments. Most impressive. It will be interesting to see if he moves forward to a full acting career.
