Review of The New Daughter (2009) by Dean M — 12 Jun 2011

This spooky story is very average with Kevin Costner about a man dealing with a family related loss which has a haunting outcome.

This is a gorgeously shot film, where the nights are cold, eerie and evocative, and the safety of home is warm, glowing and golden. The best shot in the film is the last one, which barely makes up for the utter stupidity of the ending. There is much left to explain, but in the end, I don't really care.

This is occasionally interesting but is less so than it is sloppily executed and badly acted.
