Eli M @HimmyNeutron 6d Its funny to see the director thought out this movie so well both critics AND viewers have been duped into believing its a sincere psychological thriller! It seems the vast majority didnt finish the movie because they thought they had it figured out before the ending 😂! In reality, this is a masterfully crafted satire on the typical psychological thriller theatrics and gimmicks perfectly exaggerated to prove a point, that too much self-insistence only makes a fool out of you. I really cant say Ive been this thoroughly bamboozled by a psychological thriller in quite some time, all to realize, SURPRISE, this isnt a psychological thriller and I, THE VIEWER! AM THE FOOL! I love movies yet am scarce to write reviews, this one I felt COMPELLED to do so for 👏. See more Jennifer L @JenLBD Jan 12 This is not my favorite movie but it is not bad at all. People are judging this like it’s a real documentary. It is a historical fiction BASED on fact. Most films are loosely based on real events. This is one of those. The he actors did a great job. They did not write the movie. The screenplay is a little all over the map at the beginning, but otherwise it’s interesting. Reality is scary. Cults exist. They can be involved in things the average person is terrified by. This is about that. People don’t usually like the truth. See more Alex H Oct 3 Not a great film but it doesn’t deserve such a low rating on RT. There is a great performance from Hawke, some compelling characters and enough mystery to keep you guessing. See more Jeffrey P Jun 19 Jumps right in and progresses rather quickly without much story depth or character depth which makes it take awhile to sync up with. From that point it’s mildly amusing for awhile as it seems like it may go somewhere interesting, only to undo everything before ending on a note that tried to tie it together but failed. See more G K Apr 19 The only way that this movie would be redeemable is if at the end, the girl was lying, and it was all for attention. Then it would show the truth about satanic panic and how ridiculous it is. These allegations ruin many people’s lives. See more Patrick R Apr 10 It's a good movie... okay, it's not among Amenábar's best, but the strong message it conveys is something very precious, as it's totally neglected, and it has to do with anthropology, psychology, sociology, and cultural processes... ...namely, no one ever stops to think that... our convictions, even the smallest and most 'innocent' of everyday life, beliefs, visions of reality, etc... are solely and exclusively the result of a continuous process of signification, which occurs from the aggregation and redundancy of some information, rather than others. ...Excellent lesson of post-graduation, universally recognized by experts in the aforementioned areas, which we have the opportunity to learn with a good film by a good director, and good actors... ...I felt a bit of a lack of a more marked visualization regarding the great revelation that the protagonist has towards the end.
