Featured reviews
Pros:
The story and the screenplay was good, never let me skip any scene.
Jump scares are decent and were plotted where its needed.
Unpredictable climax and the twist.
Cast performances were good.
Sound and cinematography was good, enjoyable with home theatre.
Cons: Not much but I felt some slowness in-between the movie.

I was pretty excited about this one because of the really good reviews it got . I must say I wasn't disappointed but wasn't surprised either .
THE GOOD
-The acting is great
-The atmosphere is really creepy and so is the special effects and makeup .
-The first 20 minutes of the movie are shocking and scary
THE AVERAGE
-The jumpscares . At the beginning the jumpscares were great but as the movie progressed they got cheaper.
THE BAD
-The twist was really predictable for me .
Overall you should watch "Don't listen" because it's definitely worth checking out but you shouldn't have high expectations . I am going to give "Don't listen" a 6.5/10

Pretty good with lots of jumps. Storyline was a bit basic with a few holes. But aside that it does make you jump. Plus the ending not traditional and I thought was really good.
Well... If your child is hearing voices there are three probable reasons for this:
1) He has a very strong imagination. 2) A traumatic life experience or mental health problems such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. 3) The house you are in is haunted.
As Don't Listen is a horror movie the third option is clearly the obvious one. This is a fine Spanish horror flick that is full of creepy moments - we get many of those wonderful shots of shadowy figures in the background - and the atmosphere of dread and horror as the malevolent spirit preys on the residents with a series of brutal mind games is great, that all said, it's unfortunate that the last act relied heavily on our cast of characters acting like complete idiots, which to be is fair standard horror stuff. This movie also answers the question, "What is worse than building your house on an ancient burial ground?"
Note: If flies are swarming around a crack in the wall it might be a good idea to find out what's inside that particular wall..

Spanish horror doesn't really do the slow build up thing does it. From the very beginning this film kicks off with the creep and tragedy and just keeps going.
There's are lots of elements to the tale that include witchcraft, possession and folklore woven around a dark story and a sense of foreboding.
If there are lessons to be learned from this film its to make sure you always empty the pool and look at your children's drawings very carefully.
