Review of What Lies Beneath (2000) by Sarah S — 02 Dec 2008
This film is one of my favorite supernatural mystery films ever! You get creeped out from the moment the spirit of Harrison Ford's mistress shows here face in her watery grave. From that moment, you know you will not be let down.
Michelle Pfeiffer's performance is with out a doubt, one of her best. You get the feeling that she put her heart and soul into becoming her character. The role is played wonderfully. Harrison Ford also does a magnificent job.
His character is extremely two dimensional, and he masters it like he's done it a million times before. They make a great pair, and I would love to see them together again. The atmosphere and mood of this supernatural thriller / horror film are very well planned.
There are some truly startling moments when something suddenly jumps out. The ghost-based part of the movie is definitely creepy to say the least. The scenes in the bathroom and at the lake are the best.
This movie is well acted, and very well directed. Watching this movie at night, at home alone, in the dark will definitely add to the spookiness. What Lies Beneath is an awesome thriller. It will leave you wondering and in surprise the entire movie.
Highly recommended!!! Worth the buy!
