Purely Joyful Movie!

Boring

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

I've learnt not to listen to the bad reviews on here, it's best just to watch a movie and decide yourself if you enjoyed it or not.

I felt this movie didn't quite live up to it's potential. It had an interesting premise but seemed to lack something so it's basically a missed opportunity.

Not sure what the reviewers who rated this a 10 were watching.No substance, nonsensical story line and terrible acting by mid twenty-one things pretending to be teens !!Awful.

Now its official, Rodrigo Cortés can't give a proper ending to a movie. The main problem with Down a Dark Hall is that it is not as bad as you expected it was going to be (again, marketing departments should make a better effort with their trailers). The first hour works fine, the suspense is well built and there are a few atmospheric scenes and decent scares. But my main issues comes with the last act, to be fair it is not a complete disaster... but almost, movie is mainly saved by a superb AnnaSophia Robb, she steals the show.I wont get into spoilers but from the ballroom scene the movie turns into a ridiculous mess, rushed to an unsatisfying cliché ending. But also some wrong script choices, a few cheesy dialogue lines and the usual, painfully bad, cheap, EVIDENT CGI. Plus the poor locations, the forced all-American style (art direction is weak), the ridiculous villain(s) and an overacted Uma Thurman (with a weird look and a silly accent) doesn't help either.
