The moody, beautifully composed production raises it above the norm.

It all works reasonably well but the film lacks real punch.
February 10, 2012 | Rating: 3/5 -
[A] busy, bustling ghost story that at times appears less indebted to the Susan Hill bestseller than the Haunted Mansion ride at Disneyland.

The story has worked in performance before. As a stage play it has run and run. As a movie it plods and plods.
February 9, 2012 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review… -
Director James Watkins expertly uses shadows and empty spaces to create a percolating sense of dread, and he waits until the last possible moment before allowing his audience the catharsis of a shock.
February 9, 2012 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… -
Some effective scares, but this is haunted house horror by numbers.

Dec 11, 2015Daniel Radcliffe leads the cast in the atmospheric horror-thriller The Woman in Black. After being sent to a small town to assess an estate, a young lawyer starts to see a mysterious woman in black that is said to be a vengeful spirit that kills children. The writing is pretty strong, and does a good job at weaving the mystery of who the woman is and how to quell her thirst for vengeance. Additionally, the costumes and sets are especially well-done and help to create a creepy and foreboding tone. Full of chills, The Woman in Black is a frightening horror film.Dann M Super Reviewer

May 07, 2014Could stand Daniel Radcliffe being in it thanks to it's surprisingly taut & jumpy nature. Simple narrative bolstered by a seasoned Cirian Hinds performanceSanity Assassin ! Super Reviewer
