Review of The Visit (2015) by Graeme B — 05 Jul 2016
Extremely disappointed with this movie. From Shyamalan, I was expecting a well made, original, thriller with twists and turns and an excellent ending.
What I got was 'Paranormal Activity 7' (or whatever number we're on now).
Why on earth is someone as talented as this guy using a worn out, predictable blue print? WHY??
I am convinced this would have been better if he had made it in the standard way, relying on excellent direction rather than some home made movie gimmick, which, lets face it, is getting down right boring.
The humour was sub standard, the scares were average, relying on people jumping out of cupboards to make me jump...but, the premise was anti-climactic...in fact the whole thing was like one of those fireworks you get out of a cheap box...it sizzles, but never takes off and explodes.
