The Others isn't a scary film (not much "horrors" are), but it is rather thrilling. It keeps you guessing throughout and there is a rather climatic conclusion that really shocked me.
The premise is rather unique, and I'm glad I finally saw this film after all these years of remembering that trailer from way back when.
I prefer horror films that rely more on the thrills and are carried by decent acting rather than blood and guts, which made for an ultimately satasfying and thrilling film.One Of The Best - 0930tracey
I saw this movie at the theater on opening night, so I was lucky enough to have not be subjected to idiot's telling me the twisted ending. I must say-I almost peed my pants. There were so many "jumpy" moments. The kids in the movie were fantastic. The scenes were so haunting. And the final few minutes made you scream "WHAT??????!!!" and then talk about it for the next few days. A definate must see for the thriller/chiller lovers.Chilling!!, - tlefrancois
I was impressed by the enchanting simplicity of the plot, the lack of need for "Hollywood" special effects, and the haunting atmosphere that loomed over everything from beginning to end.
The first half, or even three quarters, seemed to move along a bit slowly, but it felt necessary to build the suspense to the point where I was biting my nails in anticipation of the inevitable.
Nicole Kidman's character, Grace... I was torn between empathy and disgust for her at times, but she definitely succeeded at captivating me with their lives and story. Predictable in parts, but it still leaves you guessing. This was a quality ghost story, with an old fashioned ambiance; downright spooky.
I was in awe of the ending, a fairly intelligent premise. It's the kind of movie that lets you escape reality for a while by entertaining you, but at the same time, returns you to the "real world" with your spine tingling, wondering if there isn't some possibility of truth... Chilling.
