That sucks. <br /><br />The same thing happens at the beginning of <i>Leprechaun</i>: the old man brags about stealing a leprechaun's pot of gold, and his wife doesn't believe him despite the fact he has a pot of gold.<br /><br />Actually, this movie sounds worse. Worse than <i>Leprechaun,</i> you hear that <i>Don't Be Afraid of the Dark</i>?Octopunkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14948127593611773731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17244873.post-64939415841517459222011-10-13T13:19:02.257-07:002011-10-13T13:19:02.257-07:00So disappointing, I was holding out hope for this ...So disappointing, I was holding out hope for this one.<br /><br />"Katie Holmes continues to act with the emotion of a Borg (what the hell happened to her?)" ~scientology, that's what.Catfreeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06215307648862899154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17244873.post-12783602650324417682011-10-13T13:16:43.475-07:002011-10-13T13:16:43.475-07:00sounds like a disappointment all 'round!sounds like a disappointment all 'round!AChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09439637162161958915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17244873.post-20611843484714425652011-10-13T12:22:19.915-07:002011-10-13T12:22:19.915-07:00"This is one of those frustrating films where..."This is one of those frustrating films where the child is well aware of the danger afoot yet the adults dismiss her fear as childish nonsense even in the face of overwhelming evidence."<br /><br />I wouldn't classify this as "one of those" films. This goes way beyond. There is so much evidence that the creatures are real - including when the little girl kills 3 of them and her parents find the little girl and corpses - they STILL stick around the house, refusing to believe. It's a huge plot hole. You've got the mural of the creatures, the old caretaker telling her "get out of the house, there are creatures", the corpses, I mean, WTF?!? <br /><br />Sorry, this movie made me kind of angry. <br /><br />As for Katie Holmes, I think she's punishing herself for passing on The Dark Knight.Trevorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10144143421338485411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17244873.post-26530078046105911072011-10-13T11:35:25.494-07:002011-10-13T11:35:25.494-07:00Tom Cruise happened to her.
