I really came to see the movie without knowing who directed it..
Knight of Cups had that familiarity of nonsense only saw in Tree of Life. I wanted to know who the director of this lame thing was after 10 minutes of pretentious, stupid and dumb ghosts with a not understandable plot. Then I remembered: these kind of ghosts are familiar to me! This is Tree of Life II! Reminds me of Malick and his mithocondriae!
I am not reviewing a movie that I saw, I am, for the first time in my life, reviewing a movie I didn't see, because I found this long video-clip without sense of cohesion was directed by Terrence Malick ten minutes after I sat to see it and I immediately abandoned all hope, and, of course, the theatre.
AVOID.

I rarely do film reviews, but when one does deserve an opinion, whether is overcritisiced or overrated, I always feel I have to give my point of view.
The Visit was a film I didn't expect to be one of a kind, or really captivating. Mostly because of Blumhouse Productions' fondness of sick-and-tiring mockumentary and Shyamalan's filming and writing wreckage these years. Both making a horror film could've mean a disaster together. Imagine a very low budget Blumhouse mockumentary with Shyamalan's obsession with lame scripting on those last movies he did.
I was very wrong.
The Visit has the grittyness of Sinister and Paranormal Activity, but M. Night Shyamalan's famous -and sometime infamous- twists. It's a welcome beginning of I expect a new formula in terms on writing and producing at least. Blumhouse + Shyamalan = explosive horror combo!!!! You even forget it's a mockumentary! That's an achievement!
I wonder how much does M Night Shyamalan to do with the whole process, but he seems to take the wheel on this one, and he can still give us goosebumps (heavy ones), he knows how to do it and boy he delivers.
God damn it scared me the whole ride! Mostly because Deanna Dunagan 's grandma character. Oh, man... you have to see her to believe me.
A good horror movie is not about how gory it is, it's about how scary it can get, and this one is damn scary no matter how comedic it may seem from time to time. Stephen Kings' IT -the miniseries- was comedic too. Comedy sometimes is cynicism. Every little or big horror film has to bring some forced comedy, because makes the horror a lot better, as a counterpart. I didn't hear any complaints about zombie B-movies we all love which have a lot of twisted humor. Sorry to say the fun gags here were not so funny and sometimes were out of place. OK, for the detractors of this film I give you that as a concession, but no less. This movie stills being a horror standout in its own terms.
Found myself talking about Stephen King? This one has a less sadic resemblance to his work, but still remind me of him in some passages, mostly on claustrophobic sense of horror (found some tribute to The Shining), and sociopath characters too. This movie also does a mostly well-done tribute to some Japanese classic and its Hollywood threshed horror. Pay no mind on flaws, The Visit is all things put together with good results. Fierce drama, scary horror, spoofed comedy, good acting overall.
And I thought this one was not funny at all despite unnecessary comedy and unfunny gags. It really did scare me, and scared me the whole ride.
I liked this movie very much.
Could be better? There is always room for improvement. I am very optimistic about that.
Enjoyable, but after all, the few words I can give you as a conclusion: scary, entertaining and very enjoyable M Night Shyamalan 's film. OH God, love to say this. He is absolutely back!
