Until Dawn was an unexpected surprise. I was expecting another copy of a copy of a copy generic horror movie. Man was I wrong. The Setting, Plot, Atmosphere, Scares, Horror action was all superb! Never a dull moment and an intriguing story. Acting was all good. Ignore all the usual idiots comparing this to the video game and complaining it isn't the same as the game or whatever. Just push play and enjoy the ride and if you have to just completely separate this from any video game it is supposed to be based on. I don't know why they felt it necessary to attach it to a old video game this movie stands on its own, no question. A solid 8.5/10 from me. Very Entertaining.

It just moves along at a snails pace. I like the setting, the idea/story but it's just so slow. I like the direction the story goes but it's an agonizingly slow journey getting there. There are literally scenes of nothing for minutes at a time and you start yelling at the screen "C'mon something happen!" There are I believe three brief exciting scenes in the nearly two hour runtime. Several times throughout the movie I zoned out from boredom. A fairly original idea is what got me through to the end. I will say all the acting was top notch but as I said before it was just too slow. So was I entertained? Well, yes... for about 1\4 of the movie. Which is not nearly enough.
