Just... ugh.
Imagine every horror movie cliche you've ever seen (old house out in the woods, disturbing neighbours, a cat in the cupboard etc) and add a now well past it De Niro mugging and gurning, and you've got a truly dreadful film. I was embarrassed watching it, to be honest.
The only redeeming feature was little Dakota Fanning, she's bloody brilliant to be honest, and she acts De Niro off the screen in every scene. That's arguably the world's greatest actor, out-acted by a little 10 year old girl. Shocking.
Probably one of the worst films I've seen this year, just glad I didn't pay to go see it.
And with every rule there are exceptions.
But for every Deer Hunter, you have "Meet The Parents".
With every Heat you have "Rocky & Bullwinkle"
It used to be that a De Niro film was something to enjoy, a mark of quality. But he's squinty-eyed grimaced that history away of late.
.........nothing.
It's always worrying when a movie has five alternate endings. 'Twas dreadful. Be giving Hide and Seek a miss I think.
