I have to admit and I do understand that many are reluctant or not really on board with the movie. Any movie that has exorcism in it ... at least horror fans immediately think of the Friedkin classic The Exorcist ... and I don't think there is one movie yet, that has surpassed that movie yet! Yes it is that good ... there are some movies that are good in their own rights ... but never topping that powerhouse of a movie that set so many milestones and is justifiably considered one of the best horror movies of all time.
Having said all that, there is more here than just exorcism and I hope the viewers can see that too. It is not a great movie, but it is a pretty decent one. I guess I could have gone with a 6 rating (I still might), but I am known for mostly being nice when it comes to rating and reviewing stuff ... Having Guy Pearce in this really lends this much needed gravitas ... and certain things make more sense towards the end of it.
