Review of The Boy (2016) by João Miguel R — 05 Apr 2016

What we got here it's a dumb movie. The Boy starts well with big promisse, and gives throught it's first hour really good scares in a very creepy atmosfere (and some cliché jump scares) - toys are effective. But the last 30mns are so dumb that makes us wondering "why the hell the writers didn't keeped the original path?" The result is a movie that forgets the scare factor in favor of a so-so slasher kind of movie. Cohan interpretation is nice, she manaegs to keep the flow all way long.. all the other actors fell a little stupid.. specially Robson's "Cole i'm-just-here-to-die"....

Although the ending sugests sequels (obviously in these movies) I hope they dont make it ...please dont... We have Chucky allready..
