    I really loved this film yet can see why others didnt. I think it was sold as a different film to what it actually is for a start. If your looking for a scary film about a Babadook this is not what this is yet the trailer sold it that way. What i found was a solid film fantastically acted about grief and pain and for me it was pretty unnerving as well as very moving (actual tears were shed!)

    does this movie get better. Cuz I watched 40 minutes or so before my xbox live connection crapped out and kicked me off my Netflix. So far its just really.....really....boring.

    It doesn't pick up all that much as far as excitement. I thought this film was alright but nothing worth boasting about..

    If you thought it was boring then you might as well not finish it

    It probably helps to not expect a slasher/gorefest, but a psychological thriller.

    Agreed, a very multi-layered psychological thriller

    After seeing a positive write up for Unfriended followed up by this I am convinced there is a huge sinkhole in James Franco's front lawn and the Hollywood Hills are engulfed in flames.

    I started watchin this , but from what i seen was this is Super Slow. I dont exactly think its going to be my cup of tea, but seeing as I own it. It needs another(sober) watch.

    I can understand this not being everyone's cup of tea.. but to call it outright bad?

    Perhaps don't force yourself to watch a movie that is a slow burn if that's not what you are in the mood for, and put down your cellphone for 90 minutes for a change and you just might enjoy yourself.

    Personally I have been favoring slow burn, thoughtful horror flicks more than anything else lately. I never liked horror movies, especially indie flicks that just try and wow you with gore. Thus I don't watch them.
    I want to be drawn into a movie and its characters. I want the movie to be smart with a story that has weight to it. I want good performances and atmosphere. Everyone has their own tastes so if slow burns aren't for you don't watch them then say they are bad. If I sat and watched a shitty indie movie just for gore I would say the same thing...so I don't bother watching them.

    I happen to like slow burn flicks so long as they don't have boring, pointless scenes. On the other hand, I can't stand watching movies that you need ADD to appreciate.

    I can't disagree with that. I expected to really like Babadook and hate unfriended. I ended up feeling the opposite.

    Everyone is entitled to their opinion. But if you want to be a professional critic, you need to give valid reasons.
