Girl at the Window

I don't understand, I really don't understand, why an actress like Radha Mitchell allows herself to be cast in a completely insignificant and desperately stupid supporting role, where she is not given any space for even minimal acting performance. Unfortunately, this is not the only film in which Radha incomprehensibly does not even partially use her potential. To say something about the film itself, originality is not really its strong point. You'll discover the main villain long before the end, and you'll be able to focus more on the annoyingly illogical direction, script and editing. I'm not saying that the creators didn't try to do a professional job, but the effort is not enough when you can't decide whether you're shooting a comedy, crime or slasher.

Whoever let this one pass the final inspection should be fired immediately, 90 minutes of my life wasted, it was so bad I had to write a review, in my 26 years of life I've never even considered reviewing a movie online but this one was so terrible I couldn't resist, if your considering watching this show please don't do it, the soundtrack to this makes me feel like I'm reliving the first jaws movie all over again and to make it even worse it took her 12 hours to get down the stairs? One minute it's midnight and she's running down to the kitchen to get a knife and the next it's midday and she's only just made it out the front door, I'm so disappointed that I've even taken the time to start a petition to get this removed from all viewing platforms, it should be banned! Makes me ashamed to be Australian.

I have no words to describe what just happened! 90 minutes wasted! This movie is so so so so bad! I am trying to think of a way to provide constructive feedback but I just can't! It is just really, really, I mean reeeeeally bad!

I definitely recommend you watching the other movie you were indecisive on! Go back to the home page and choose a different movie! I wish I had done just that!

Oh, and the scene she grabs a knife and it's dark and then runs to the house next door, it is literally next door (it would've taken her 2 minutes tops) and, all of a sudden, is daylight. I mean, WHAT?! Why?! How do people get away with this?

I would love to know how much money was spent on it! It is just a waste! Waste of money and waste of people's time!

Ahhhh, rant is over! I feel better now! Oh no, wait.... This movie is really BAD! .... Now I'm done!

In a word - bad. I won't dedicate much time to reviewing a project this bad. Radha Mitchell has made some great films, but she is only a supporting role here. The lead actress is good, but you can only do so much with a terrible script. The villain is a terrible actor, but not as terrible as whoever was in charge of the post-production. The sometimes inappropriate and always overbearing mood music will drive most viewers crazy. Altogether, this isn't just bad - it's multi-dimensionally bad. I removed it from my collection.

Soooo bad it's not even bad enough to be good!

Horror is always a bit hit and miss and sometimes a miss aint a bad thing as 'just because it's bad' doesn't mean it's not enjoyable.

This was just utter cheese - terrible everything, plot, acting, screenplay, all of it. Come in Aussie films!! You can do better then that, we'd come so far and now this?

Anyone involved in this film should be ashamed of themselves.....complete amateurish garbage.

The best part was when it finished.
