Unless you're a pretentious hipster who claims to find deep meaning in the most shallow creations, skip this one. I actually feel kind of bad comparing it to a perfume ad because I've seen some with way more substance than this.
I think even the people who applaud this movie's "beautiful cinematography" are just saying what they think they should. Sure, there are lots of beautiful locations and faces in this film, but the camera rarely focuses on any of them for any length of time. There's a scene where Rooney Mara's character is talking with her dad and the camera keeps moving around, focusing on her arm or hand. How artistic! Please. If you're really craving tilted camera angles, just watch the old Bat-Man TV show.

OMG this is one of the funniest movies I've seen in a long time. No matter that it's not a comedy. How could anyone one-star this? Are you not entertained? Look, if you enjoy so-bad-they're-good flicks like The Room and Troll 2, you will love this. It has everything a good bad movie needs: plot holes galore, laughable special effects, poor attempts at intentional comedy, stilted dialogue, and terrible, (mostly) no-name actors. The fact that Eric Roberts gives the best performance when he drops in to collect a paycheck tells you all you need to know. Also, wait until you see that evil baby!! Remember Gage from Pet Sematary? Wielding that scalpel like a cutie patootie? Yeah, he's no longer the least believable demonic movie child ever.
