Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
best movie i've ever seen.
Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
First what you should know up front: "Dream House" is not a horror flick. Also it's rated PG-13 which means it's pretty tame (no gore, no explicit violence, etc), so if you're looking for something along the lines of The Exorcist you might wanna stick with The Exorcist.In lieu of buckets of blood and terrifying demons, we get a really clever and tense story about a family in a remote house slowly uncovering the details of a bizarre unsolved mass murder that happened under their roof 5 years earlier. Strap on your seatbelt because the plot has more twists and turns than the Grand Prix, and there are a few total 180 turnarounds that might lose you if you're not paying attention. But overall I thought it was a great story.My only criticism is, due to it's somewhat tame PG-13 presentation, the film loses some of its edge. At times it can feel almost like a "family film" which is totally at odds with its otherwise creepy vibe. Imagine if The Exorcist had been directed by Steven Spielberg, and maybe you'll catch my drift. In fact, "Dream House" does indeed have a Spielbergesque quality to it (as in the original "Poltergeist"), which may be to your liking, but for a lot of horror/thriller fans it's too clean and perhaps ties things up in too neat of a bundle in the end.Acting is great all around, and I have to mention the GREAT job by the 2 sisters (and real life sisters) Taylor Geare and Claire Geare. They were ages 10 and 5 respectively and did a really convincing performance, particularly in a few scenes where they bring out an otherworldly element that's hard to describe.I recommend this movie for its original story which digs deep into psychology and the twists of the human mind. No chainsaws or blood drinking vampires here, just a really interesting thriller that should captivate any mystery fan.
So we were expecting a little bit more but it still does the job in being a fine film.The cast is good but the ending was a bit average for us, although i did like the concept of the story and how it ended up being but in the end for the star power it could have been way better yet also way worse.
Good suspenseful movie for the whole family. It had many twists and turns along the way. This was refreshing to see something well planned without all the gore that some movies have. The closure to the ending was not planned as well as the rest of the movie. I would have liked to have seen a better ending. Thanks for a good escape from real world for a bit.
I thought this movie was one of the best movies I have seen in a while. Wasn't scary, but it was quite suspenseful. It kept my interest, wasn't slow or boring at all. The plot twists were great, and it was hard to predict what was going to happen next. After I read about what the movie was about in the description, I really had no idea that it was going to turn out like it did. It definitely takes you by surprise. But it was a pleasant surprise, because the movie turned out better then I thought it was actually going to be. I even cried at the end of the movie. There was no flat acting detected, and the way the movie was filmed was done well. I think this movie is definitely worth watching.
