Rating: Summary: Ultimate Ghost Story! Review: I saw this twice in theatres. Most people told how it was so "predictable". In all truth, no one could predict the final five minutes of the film when all is revealed. It's a "more than you see" type of story. I loved it! This and "Moulin Rouge" heightened my respect for Nicole Kidman.
Rating: Summary: Great ... movie Review: I absolutely adored "The Others" because it had the most kick [butt] ending that I think I have ever seen. It was one of the few movies that I had NO idea what was going to happen. A lot of people said that "The Sixth Sense" had a great twist, but most people I know, including me, saw it coming at least an hour into the film. This movie, not at all. But anyway, Nicole Kidman was fabulous as always in this, and I highly recommend this movie. VERY SUSPENSEFUL.
Rating: Summary: Like another movie i saw, but this has a better Plot. Review: Very well done. No wonder she was an oscar nominee. This movie keeps you pretty much guessing until the end.
Rating: Summary: So-so Review: Yes, Nicole Kidman turns in a nice performance. So do the kid actors. But, no, this is not the greatest movie of all time. Its pacing is agonizingly slow, it's derivative and, ultimately, tedious. Thematically, it's a wannabe "The Innocents"--the classic Jack Clayton version of The Turn of the Screw, with Deborah Kerr turning in an exquisitely neurasthenic performance. A third of the way into this film, it's fairly obvious what's going on. Yet it's dragged out relentlessly to its foregone conclusion. It's worth seeing as a too-long mood piece, but it's not representative of first-class movie-making.
Rating: Summary: THIS WAS NO SIXTH SENSE RIP OFF..... Review: ... The Others is such a different movie. It is a lot more bizarre than the Sixth Sense ... The look of the film, the atmosphere are a lot different as well. ... they use the ending in a differentmore disturbing way. Nicole Kidman was extraordinary in this film along with the actors who played her kids. I thought this movie was better than the sixth sense (even though the sixth sense was a brilliantly filmed movie) ...
Rating: Summary: Best ghost movie i've seen in ages. Review: This is the best ghost movie I have seen in a very long time. Every single actor in the film gives a stunning performance, Nicole Kidman as Grave, the woman who plays Bertha, Anne, Nicholas, Lydia, Mr Tuttle...everyone. The plot is quite simple, but extremely effective, very realistic, and genuinely scary. The climax, and final twist is stunning. I really should have seen it coming! (because it's the oldest ghost-story twist in the book!) The story plays with your mind, as all good ghost stories / mysteries should. All the way through i find myself pondering what could possibly be going on and why. Everytime something happened i would think "ah yes, that must be it" but every single time i was wrong. And every single time i was wrong, i enjoyed the experience. The camera work, direction, make up, costume, set, etc, is all superb. In fact, i can find little to fault at all about this film. A scary and chilling ghost story that will keep you on your toes and stun you at it's climax. this is definitely one to watch.
Rating: Summary: Scary! Review: Okay, I'll admit, once I saw the entire movie, I realized that, like everyone's been saying, it is definitely copying Sixth Sense. But nevertheless, this movie was REALLY tense. It was one of the scariest movies I've seen this year. In a couple spots the entire audience screamed (no kidding). The family situation in this movie at the beginning was beyond creepy. So even though this movie is an obvious copy cat, it's a pretty good one!
Rating: Summary: A 2001 production movie made to be a CLASSIC !! Review: a movie that made to be a classic..that's it for sure..most of those didn't like THE OTHERS r those who only admires cheap scary movies like [ the wishmaster..etc ].. in my point of view the others wasn't made to be a scary movie that scares your hair of your head..it's a movie that requires a full consentration to the conversations with in which was done elegently , with wonderful scenes and shots ,light and one of the most wonderful sound scores...this movie is a shift for Nicole Kidman for sure
Rating: Summary: The BEST Suspense/Horror Film EVER Review: I have NEVER seen any other film of this genre keep me on the edge of my seat. Not a gory horror film, but one of the most exquisitely executed suspense thrillers ever! Saying more would give it away - you MUST see this film!
Rating: Summary: The best ghost story of 2001 Review: I saw The Others back last summer in the theater.I came out of the theater creeped out.The movie takes place back during the war.Nicole Kidman and her family live in a huge old house that her daughter says is inhabited by ghosts.Nicole Kidman thinks it's he daughter playing a joke for attention.Well she think that until she notices the wierd things happening.This movie i for mature horror film fans.It's not for those who got scared during movies like The Haunting.This movie gets the thrills just right and the twist(which no one should reveal)is so unpredictable that when you see it you just won't even believe it.The performances in the movie are flawless.Nicole Kidman does an amazing job in this movie.This is definatly one of the best horror films to come out in the past year.
