2/10
Wow... Astonishingly Bad.
24 October 2014
Well I guess it's safe to say Inside was a fluke... There are a few promising ideas here, but the music box / creep show / pedantically telegraphed presentation pretty much annihilates any enjoyment one could expect to extract. Overscored, overstyled, tonally incoherent, devastatingly underwritten, and most often, just plain dumb. I just finished watching it, and I'm honestly still in shock that it was just so... abysmal.

As my review must be 10 lines long, I will attempt to say something positive about the film: I did like the very end, but man, the drudgery required to get there... From about the first time a taxidermied animal (sitting at a tea party, no less) inexplicably moves, I was on the verge of turning it off. Yeah, that's about as positive as it gets.
