Qorin

Don't just waste your time, watch something else, anything!! The movie is boring, worst horror movie ever made 😂. And I'm trying to make a review, I need to put 600 words.. anyway DONT WATCH, many horror movies to watch rather than this.. not worth the time, it clueless, no storyline, it's just all over the place. The more you watch, the more confusing it is. I have never rated a movie but I decided to do this because it's bad and doesn't deserve to be on Netflix. And the annoying part is, it's soooo Long. And you get bored, but I finished it and it's not advisable for you to watch if you are an horror freak like me.

I hadn't heard about this 2022 Indonesian horror movie titled "Qorin" before 2023, as I had the opportunity to sit down and watch it. I liked the movie's cover, and thus I picked it up. And with it being an Asian horror movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I managed to find the time to sit down and watch it.

However, writers Lele Laila and Ginanti Rona failed to put together a storyline for the movie that entertained me. The narrative was too monotonous and there weren't enough scary stuff in the movie to really keep the movie interesting. And it didn't help one bit that all the characters in the story were essentially just one and the same.

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie. And whether or not the actresses in the movie performed well or not was rather difficult to distinguish, as all the female characters in the movie were essentially just cut from the same cloth; they all looked and acted the same way.

Director Ginanti Rona's 2022 movie was a disappointing movie experience, and not one I would recommend for fans of the Asian horror cinema. There are far better Indonesian horror movies readily available.

My rating of "Qorin" lands on a three out of ten stars.

This film deserves at least a 7-star rating. If you compare it to other Hollywood horror films with a 7-star rating, it should receive similar recognition. In this case these reviews and ratings can be misleading to be honest. So, if you come this far to make your decision, then my request is give it a try.

This film could be far better, but at the same time it does deliver a genuinely uncomfortable experience. The ending is not up to the mark. The first half is very good and thrilling.

I have seen movies based on Jinn activity, and as a Muslim, I know how terrifying these beings can be. Although no movie can fully capture the real horror of Jinn, these films are a commendable effort.

Risky choice taking Islam as a red treat of your movie. Unfortunately it doesn't pay off at all. The recitation of the holy Qu'ran feels of and taking place where the bible wpuld be mlre fitting.

It's very interesting to see Java, Indonesia take center stage. But the movie is trying to many things without having a solid script or well thought out screenplay. So with that good acting, decor and even an ok script kinda fall through.

The movie has too many story gaps and at one point implodes with trying to make the story comem around. Too much suspense after a very decent start without going anywhere.

Who should watch this: anyone interested in seeing a somewhat not totally terrible Indonesian horror flick. But truth said, no one on the planet will miss out for not watching this.

I don't think this was nearly as bad as all the scathing reviews are making it out to be at all. There was a really interesting story here with solid spook factor that got a little muddied by maybe a bit too much going on.

The sequence of events throughout this story were a little bumpy. It generally felt disjointed and there wasn't much finesses when attempting to weave a smooth story with cohesive transitions. It was very much that kind of movie that confuses you to then explain itself later for that "ah ha" moment. I think some of the confusion could also be bits and pieces getting lost in translation.

Regardless of this I really did enjoy this movie for what it was, granted I am a bit biased towards Indonesian horror. They made it successfully creepy and atmospheric with an engaging story. I think it would have bennifited from a bit more focus, editing and a shorter run time but it was for sure a solid watch. 6.5 rounding to a 6. Would recommend.
