Summary: It Surprised me
Review: With all honesty, I though this movie would be corny and pretty crappy when I saw previews of it. But my sister bought the DVD, so I figure why not, I might as well give it a shot. It begins very slow and kinda pointless, and I was thinking to myself "crappy movie so far". But from the middle on, my eyes were glued on the screen. Some parts made me jump alittle, especially near the end, that one scene scared the living crap out of me. Ford's and Piefer's acting were well done, I really liked it, people really have to give this movie a chance. It deserves a 3.5 or a 4 star, the movie is great fun to watch. I was happy that my sister bought this movie for my DVD collection.

Summary: Did you see the face?????????
Review: In the final scene (graveyard) as the camera pans down and fades you can just make out the face of a ghost, almost full screen.

Summary: Great cast, not so good movie
Review: I was truly disappointed in this film. As many have attested to in their reviews of this movie the cast Michelle Pfeiffer and Harrison Ford were tremendous and continue to show why they are great actors. For the most part the story was strong and had the potential to be a blockbuster movie. But the actual telling of the story was lame at best, but I was most disappointed in the ending. Rather than leave the audience saying "Wow, that ended differently than I expected" and talking about the ending for a long time comming. The director chose to take the "safe" happy ending.As much as I wanted to love this movie, and as much as Michelle and Harrison did a tremendous job acting. The telling of the story could not be saved. I give it three stars because of the actors and I respect them for giving it their all.

Summary: nice plot with a cool twist
Review: this movie is worth seeing if only for the fact that Harrison Ford does NOT play a boyscout. i'm a fan of his but he played in like six straight movies where he was cast as bad-thing-happens-to-good-guy character. anyway, the pace is a bit slow at first but picks up halfway through. as you'd expect for a thriller. Harrison was a bad boy, but his wife (michelle feifer) doesn't know until strange spirits in their house begin to contact her...mild thumbs up.

Summary: AN EERIE AND SUSPENSEFUL MOVIE!
Review: Harrison Ford and Michelle Pffeifer are a happy married couple. One day Claire (Pffeifer) starts seeing a woman's face everywhere. In the tub, in the mirror, and everywhere else in the house. This happens repeatedly. Claire is very frightened. When she goes to her husband, Norman (Ford), he just claims that she is not feeling well and seeing things. Accidents start happening. This mysterious ghost tries to throw a hair dryer in the tub and kill Claire. Claire feels like this mysterious "woman" is trying to tell her something, a very disturbing secret that led to murder because of Claire's husband. This is an excellent suspense movie, with excellent stars. The ending is unforgettable!

Summary: CRAP
Review: With this movie, Harrison Ford completes his trilogy of amazingly bad movies: "SEVEN DAYS, SIX NIGHTS ", " RANDOM HEARTS" and now this "thing" with Michele Pfeiffer. THis movie is so dumb, with all the cliches: the villain that's supposed to be dead after hitting his head but it's not; the underwater car at night where it seems like daylight, so clear it is underwater !! THe "suspense" where everyone knows right from the start who is the bad guy; Ford giving another lesson in bad acting...Well, it seems to me, reading the reviews below, that I'm wrong in my point of view. So, enjoy this garbage.

Summary: Just like Hitch would have made!
Review: I obtained this region 1 DVD in London on the 20 of January at a film convention. I had seen this movie twice at the cinema and enjoyed it immensely. I actually noticed details on the DVD that I missed on big screen, like the very last shot. The movie has a classic plot including all the ingredients of a great suspense thriller. Parts reminded me of Hitchcock's style of flim making, ie. certain camera angles and general psychological suspense, including a sequence that could have been from Rear Window. I won't go into detail about the plot in case there's anyone out there who hasn't seen it yet, but I can say that all the performances were excellent. The DVD exrta features include a very interesting commentary by Robert Zemeckis and his two producers and an entertaining behind the scenes feature (for example the house was built for the movie) The only thing missing was deleted scenes (unless there were none...)I highly recomend this DVD.

Summary: First half good, second half letdown
Review: Recently watching What Lies Beneath, I was scared witless in the first half, then bored stiff through the second half. The film starts off very well, with genuinely creepy and scary sequences, and a good involved plot. But sadly, the plot crumbles away in the second half, leaving the film to collapse. However, the film deserves four stars because there is still a good sense of mystery throughout. I was fortunate enough not to see the trailer to the film before going out to see it, but when I watched it, I was shocked to see that the trailer actually gave the whole plot away. Try to avoid viewing the trailer before the film, if you don't want the film's twists and red herrings to be revealed early.
