I thought that it was pretty good, just because this guy is smart and makes a movie that doesn't seem to be what it is supposed to be you cannot get mad, sorry that it didn't have people being wasted away with guns all over the place. Try to expand your minds, as the oldest person that reviewed so far was 22 years old besides myself. I know you all wanted a horror show, but this was so much better as you should be asking yourself questions about our society in today's views with respect to violence and why people go to the lengths that they do to protect/shield their children from it.
It is a great example of gated comunities in the USA, where they think that they are all protected from the evil on the outside, but things happen and will happen no matter what barriers or safety precautions are put into place. The acting was very good, and there is no accounting for taste for anyone, but to anyone that wants to go and see a good movie that isn't the normal Hollywood shit, go and take a chance and go see this movie.

just because a movie probes an interesting idea, or is "intellectual" doesnt make it a good movie. If i wanted to get all intellectual ill read the book. i will admit the acting was good, i didnt have a problem with that, but if its marketed as a suspenseful frightening flick and it turns out being a cute love story im going to be dissappointed pretty much regardless.
i wasnt expecting people to be "wasted away with guns" or lots of gore or anything, i was expecting this movie to get under my skin and scare me, or give me that fear of the unknown like good movie would. this movie didnt really do any of that except for that one part in the beginning, but after that there wasnt anymore badass scenes where you jump out of your seat.
and just because im 20 years old doesnt mean i cant appreciate good cinema. when i go to the movie i dont want to expand my mind, i want to be entertained and get the shit scared out of me (in this case). i go to school to expand my mind. :wink:
