Review of You're Next (2013) by Revron — 18 Jan 2014

“You’re Next” does do quite a few things right. The music is fantastic, the overall visual presentation looks tremendous and fits well in the horror/thriller genre and, even though the scares are cheap, they are quite effective.

However, the acting isn’t too special, the story gets repetitive and doesn’t feel like it’s enough to fill up an hour and a half, and the motivation for why the killers are attacking the family is super cheesy and was way too easy for me to figure out very early on in the film.

While the movie does look good, it just feels too much like any other thriller that involves masked men attacking an isolated group of people.
