Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
As Good As It Gets
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.
This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
Complete garbage.... I just wasted one hour and twenty six minutes that I can't get back.... I'd recommend this movie to no one
I did like the movie but it feels like they try to be too much of Texas Chainsaw Massacre but with less gore. This movie is fast paced and athosphereic I have to admit including story, character, script, and writting. Is it the best? No. but is it great? Almost. Is it good? For the most part yeah. It's still good after 10 years. 8.3/10
A young couple staying in an isolated vacation home are terrorized by three unknown assailants. The Strangers is a film that despite it's flaws it's still an intense horror flick with some good perfomances from Liv Tyler and Scott Speedman but also some intense scenes like the one where Liv's character is drinking water and the killer is behind her creeping but there's also some over the top jump scares like the one in the end and it needed a bit more tension at times but i admired what the director wanted to do and the actors did a great job and overall it was an enjoyable thriller. (7.5/10)
After hearing from a few people that 'The Strangers' was a must-see for horror fans such as myself, I decided to give it a go. Although the beginning was somewhat promising it quickly fell flat.I think the fear of being home alone and having someone break in is a very common one that we all experience on a regular basis. For that reason this movie does a good job at ramping up the initial tension and fear at the beginning. However, there is very little going on throughout the movie to hold the viewers attention and after half an hour or so I stopped paying attention to what was going on because I was bored. The worst part of the movie is that at the end the victim asks the mysterious masked killers why they're doing what they're doing and their response is, "Because you were in." At that point I'd completely lost all respect for what the movie was. The only appeal left in the movie after watching two people fumble around in a big house for an hour and a half trying to evade a violent death, was that perhaps there was going to be an interesting twist. To learn at the end that what happened only happened because the couple happened to be at home is beyond ridiculous and made me feel completely cheated. Though the idea behind 'The Strangers' has potential as it plays on a very common fear we all share of being targeted in our own homes, the way in which its written is uninventive and unrewarding. If this movie made a few changes it could've earned a 6, 7 or maybe even an 8 star rating. All it needed was more focus on the characters, a deeper back-story and for the killers to be connected to the main characters in some way and therefore had motive for their actions. But in failing to do these things, unfortunately, 'The Strangers' is utterly forgettable.
