Watch Fingerprints For Free

Save your money for something good and enjoyable

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

I enjoyed it. The mother was a bit too much but overall not a bad flick fer a rainy Sunday lazy day

1 is to good a bloody rating!!!! Wtf is with this film its crap and the previous comments horror is back is bull! The film is about children ghost pushing a car across a railway track! A 10 year old wouldn't even find this scary. maybe the drug references and that put it up to an 18 but no way I would recommend this film. Its a disgrace to the horror genre.please someone explain what the hell the director was thinking crap crap crap! Hated it...! There is plenty horror's that have been out after that horror's such as 1 missed call, the grudge, the eye tons better than fingerprints!! Even this stupid website makes it a more irritating film!!!

"Fingerprints" is an all around mixed bag. Some brilliant moments of creepiness mixed with moments of complete Duh…At its heart is a ghost story. However, someone came up with the idea to make it a slasher film as well. While the paranormal elements tend to work well, the masked killer segments do not, partially to do with the fact that the killer's costume is laughable at best. The premise is quiet simple, if not clichéd. A small town with a big secret and tragic past. Enter a castaway to learn about, and then attempt to solve the mystery. One big problem that I had was with the flashback sequences. They seemed to really cheapen the film and story. A few flashbacks would suffice, but the movie tries to hurl them at you and make things more confusing and less entertaining. The acting is also a mixed garden salad. Plump full of ripe tomatoes and rotten prunes. I was pulled out of several scenes because of this and found it harder to concentrate on the plot. The main characters are well portrayed, particularly Leah Pipes as "Melanie" and Andrew Lawrence as 'Mitch". During the finale and reveal, things became quite rushed (budget issues?) and I was left a bit unsatisfied. However, everything is presented to you in a nice little package, so at least you understand the story.Not bad if you're looking for a ghost story. It may even be appealing to some slasher fans. It's a middle of the road type film, not really bad, but not really good either. I guess it all depends on what you're looking for. For me, it was half and half. So on a scale of 1 to 10, I'll give it an even 5… Right smack dab in the middle.

****SPOILERS****** I actually liked Fingerprints, which is why I'm writing the review -- so that someone might read what was wrong with it and do a better movie next time around. It was actually very creepy and had a plot that at least tried to make sense, and there were a couple of parts where I jumped. That's good, because I'm pretty hard to catch off guard.The movie had much potential which unfortunately was diminished by trying too hard to fit the "teen formula," at the expense of putting more thought into telling the story.First off, we have a teenage girl who takes her sister to a beer-guzzling party THE SAME DAY THE SISTER GETS OUT OF REHAB. What kind of sister would do that? Was there any reason for this other than to have the obligatory "teenagers getting drunk" party scene? Or the attempted rape -- was that really necessary? Couldn't we have shown that the guy was a real sh-t without it getting that far?Secondly, the breast-flashing was offensive to me, a straight female who loves horror but is sick of gratuitous nudity in horror films. Do film makers think that teenage boys are the only ones who pay to see their movies? It totally cheapened the movie, as did the graphic gore of the killings.Third, too many stock characters, or in this case caricatures. We have the bitchy cheerleaders, the bitch mom, the sister played by an actress who obviously has a modeling background but doesn't know how to move like a real person for the camera. Try making the people more real next time.Last, but not least, when you set up the audience with a horrible, mean, crazy mother like the one in this film, it's not enough to let us know at the end that she got sent off to a home somewhere. At least she should have received a slap in the face from one of the daughters at the end of the movie. If you're going to have villains, they should all meet some justice.As I said above, I really did like the movie and gave it an 8. How about someone trying a remake in a few years with some better scriptwriting....
