Gothika
 
Anyone seen this yet? I saw the trailer, looks great. But the only place that has it around here is a 30 minute drive out of town, to a more expensive theatre. I just wanna know if its going to be worth it.

i thought it was a great movie, kinda keeps you guessing on whats going to happen

Holo 11-27-2003 08:21 PM

I dunno...it was ok but not enough ghostly stuff. I hate this new trend in a lot of horror movies to turn from horror into a mystery to solve. It could've been a bit scarier for me. Maybe I'm just hardened from all the sick shit I've seen online.

Spoiler:
i thought it was just another sixth sense wanna be. i know thats not really a spoiler but if you tell someone its like the sixth sense then you pretty much know the whole plot of the movie.

It wasn't great, kind of predictable. Like Holo said, it could have been scarier. It had a couple jumpy parts that weren't even effective, but the story itself just wasn't impressive.

Plan9Senior 11-30-2003 10:20 PM

I thought it was horrible. Not only did you have to suspend disbelief throughout the movie, but it just plain wasn't entertaining.

1.5 of 5 stars

I agree that it wasn't what it could have been. It was incredibly predictable and inconsistent.

Spoiler: If the ghost can take control of Miranda's car and throw her around a cell, why not just avenge herself without involving Miranda? The ending was pretty awful as well. Looks like they're fishing for a sequel even though it was a flop.

Psivage 03-26-2004 09:37 PM

I didn't understand the ending.

Spoiler: I thought the first ghost was using her for revenge and that was all, but she see a second ghost at the end? Is he to connected to her in some way? Also why wasn't she sent to jail for murder? She killed her husband. Saying a ghost made me do wouldn't get her off.

EDit: Hit the wrong button.

a Danish review says that it's nothing but a reuse of other horror movies and that doesn't sound too promising but I think that I'm gonna see it anyway

Nikilidstrom 03-28-2004 09:53 AM

That movie was god awful. Nothing even remotely scary in it, and I felt I had to lose a few IQ points just to keep from laughing at the plot. Are they ever going to make another horror movie that you can't figure out in the first 5 minutes? Hell, Holly Berry didn't even try and save that shit pile with some full frontal, what a rip off.

fnaqzna 03-29-2004 07:46 AM

Horrible, unoriginal movie.

Spoiler: The ghost possesses Miranda to avenge its death. Later, it also takes control of a car, unlocks doors to a cell, and then tosses Miranda around a cell like a rag doll. A display with enough force to wonder, "Why not just avenge yourself directly? You've got power." Some second guessing about what "Not Alone" really meant leads to the sheriff. The moment Miranda states that there is an accomplice, I said to my wife, "the sheriff". It was that predictable. And like a post said before... blaming a ghost for killing a man, won't get you out of jail.

If you're a twelve year-old that has never seen Sixth Sense, Stir of Echoes, or The Ring, this film will be entertaining. Anyone else is going to be bored shitless.

charlesesl 03-29-2004 09:24 PM

Bad movie. I wonder why does Hally Berry even bother with this one.

Ummm... what good movie has she ever been in? Heh, I don't understand the hype about this chick.

adia 03-30-2004 12:28 AM

more like hell-y berry
hah!

Eviltree 06-04-2004 08:51 PM

I thought it was okay, but definitely some poor thinking going on. If the ghost is trying to get Miranda to help it, why does it beat the shit out of her? I think that the movie could've been done better, and been better.

brandon11983 06-04-2004 10:04 PM

The movie was moderate at best. Worth a rent, nothing more.

Booray 06-04-2004 10:16 PM

I thought it was pretty stupid. It held my attention long enough for me to finish it, but it just seemed to get worse and worse

never have seen Stir of Echoes or The Ring, and I have missed this one so far as well.

that sums my feelings for Kill Bill Vol. 1 for the most part, sounds like it would fit this film as well from the other posts here.

Porkchop 06-05-2004 11:46 PM

Very average. You can work out what is gonna happen by half an hour in.

Hrothgar 06-06-2004 01:53 AM

Watch it if you have insomnia or are very bored and the cable is out and you can't leave the house, and its the only dvd you have. Or don't. It was rather chessy.

Polyphobic 06-07-2004 07:00 AM

Finally got to this in my netflix queue.
Average. Not bad not good. To cliched.

Nimbletoe 06-07-2004 04:26 PM

First movie rental I ever turned off out of boredom.

kurtisj 06-09-2004 01:29 PM

horrible.

I agree. It was a good one with twists and definitely not predictable. Haley Berry ain't hard to look at either.
