demon_naiem What a sad excuse of a movie, longest 2 hours of my life, couldn't wait to finish this movie and see how it ends, it was all predictable and pale, sadly,del toro delivers his worst work yet.

Prichards12345 Guillermo De Toro comes an awful cropper with this movie. Just about every horror film cliche is doped out in a gorgeous-looking, appallingly-scripted film. and the thing is so silly it becomes unintentionally funny.Tom Hiddlestone is okay, Jessica Chastain gives the sort of performance she might want to leave off her CV. Mia Wasiowsaka's character is so dumb it's hilarious.The script writers obviously realised how bad it was, as they up the gore content to ridiculous levels. The last 30 minutes is pretty much just bodily injury time as everyone gets stabbed, sliced, hacked and bashed. Mia, who has been suffering from slow posioning throughout the movie's second half, becomes a shovel-wielding battler at the end. Tom, of course, reforms all of a sudden when he really does fall in love - ah bless. It's a plot twist you can spot coming a mile off. The women will be happy that he displays his arse Kirk Douglas style.Thanks for all the exposition from phonograph cylinders, handily filling in the gaps for all those audience members who are a bit dim, while at the same time ripping off Dracula. Sorry - in this post-modernist era it's a smart reference, of course for all the psueds. There are plenty of others. I'm just suprised Tom didn't have a monster bubbling in the vat, as they might as well as ripped off Frankenstein as well.I suspect this may become a great guilty pleasure in years to come. Makes me glad Del Torro's Lovecraft movie fell through.

alkonyatvan Hardly I can describe my feeling after all. This movie unique and the story too. All of actors played very well. Was not scary but have a different feelings. tom is absolutly greatest actor. He played really well Thomas character. I not like horrors but that's going to my favourite

dhti Would be better without sound. The decor is stunning but the script is abdominal. The script is similar to all other horror movie clichés. When you are in a life threatening situation always stay in the easily escapable situation and shout: who is there?. I don't believe the average human being would act in that way. To me it seems as if non of the actors posses any sense of rationality or danger. A movie for late nights under influence while reading a book with loud music.
