Summary: definitely not the first rate
Review: Agree that acting was good, but the story (includes the ending) was pretty boring. Simply it isn't scary. This is not what one should pay to see at cinema. Classic "Evil dead" is ten times better.

Summary: I kept waiting for it to start
Review: After weeks of hype, I finally saw this thing. Very, very disappointing. I wasn't scared; I was irritated. I kept waiting for the plot to start, and then the end-credits rolled. THAT'S why my jaw was hanging open at the end.I'm impressed that the movie has made such a phenomenal amount of money for its creators. I'm just confused about how such a yawner could do it, while many far superior films barely make a dime. If you want to be scared, buy Aliens instead.

Summary: a waste of time and money
Review: This movie was way overhyped. The marketing people should be given 5 stars for the job they did in selling this movie to the viewers. The scenes in the theatrical trailers are as exiciting as this movie gets.

Summary: Gave Me The Creeps
Review: I really don't care for modern horror movies....they seem so stupid nowadays (Scream was a recent exception). But I really liked this. If you like Hollywood cookie-cutter horror movies, this is definitely NOT for you. It's a very unique, experimental movie, one which had elements from my childhood nightmares (getting lost, being in a strange house, etc.). Why it works, I think, is because so much is unseen or vague, leaving much of what is going on to your own imagination, sort of like Jaws, where the most intense scenes are those where the shark isn't even in sight. Hitchcock understood this concept, that less is more. Unfortunately, today's viewers (especially younger ones) are jaded by the glut of gore and special effects in modern Hollywood horror movies, which may explain the negative reviews (worst movie ever? Not by a long-shot). Gore is almost non-existent in this movie...but be warned, I believe the "R" rating comes from the use of the "F" word, which becomes more and more prevalent as the three filmmakers get more and more lost/scared/frustrated. I was a little disappointed at the ending initially, but the movie stuck with me for weeks after (I also had trouble falling asleep the night I saw it)....give it a shot.

Summary: Where's Dorothy When You Need her to melt this film?
Review: I was terribly dissapointed with this movie. Despite the shaky film and the over all unhinged feeling of the movie, I was lost due to the lack of a good story set up. All I saw was three frightened college students screaming into the night. I thought blairwitch.com was scarier. By the time they got to the house at the end, I was rooting for the witch to put me out of my misery. Where was Dorthy Gale to land a house on this thing? For more fun, check out the Scooby-Doo Project on Cartoon network! Loads of fun !

Summary: Biggest Waste of Money
Review: I tried to give it NO stars, but the software won't let me... This was the most awful movie I have ever seen! Just goes to show you - hype works!

Summary: AFV when it's worst
Review: I'm afraid I don't share most viewers point of view when it comes to this movie - if that's what it is! I simply haven't seen such a terrible movie ever. I watched and waited for about 80 minutes for something to happen and all I got was a bad taste and a feeling of a few guys laughing their brains out while counting all the money they got for a great marketing campaign. I give it 1 star because I couldn't give it less - don't even think of watching it - your'll loose 80 minutes of your life while you can have more fun looking out the window on a rainy day!

Summary: TOO MUCH HYPE FOR A BAD MOVIE
Review: I was really excited to see this movie. I love scary movies, and I really wanted to see it, thinking it would be scary. It was far from scary and a bore. I almost fell asleep. I don't understand why the critics liked this movie so much. The whole movie was just 3 people yelling at eachother...WOW. Not. Bottom line: don't bother

Summary: 2 and a half actually . . .
Review: They really should have halves. The Blair Witch Project is an okay, ridiculously over-hyped movie. However, truth be told, there are a lot scarier and a lot better made movies out there that you could be seeing. Yes, this is an okay movie. It got a lot of hype because of it's "inventive" documentary style (this has been used before, see some cult horror movies). It got too much hype, so much that the final product couldn't live up to it, especially if you're seeing it now. While Blair Witch does have some genuinely scary moments, they are precious few. I kept getting the feeling that the film's style was just a gimmick rather than an actual attempt at making it look like a documentary. There is one thing in this movie that does stand out though - the performances. They are not that amazing, but compared to a lot of today's horror movies they are quite good. Heather is impressive, and Michael and Josh are good too. To close: rent Blair Witch, but don't buy it.

Summary: Realistic -- to a fault
Review: Well, the film makers certainly succeeded in doing what they were out to do -- create the illusion that you were watching raw footage. And that illusion does make the last third of this movie especially frightening. However, the illusion was so well done that until things started getting really nasty for Heather, Josh, and Mike, this film made me feel the way everyone feels about that friend or relative who insists on dragging out his home movies/videos every time you go to visit him -- that maybe you don't want to go visit him after all.
