Just saw a review of The Others in Empire magazine. They gave it 4 stars (out of 5).

I thought it was crap.

I saw the 'twist' coming a mile off, and I thought that Nicole Kidman was really wooden in it.

Mind you, I consider 'A Life Less Ordinary' to be a great film, so maybe my opinion isn't the best to trust.

I think you might have missed something there!

I loved the fact that at the end when they have all found out they are dead, the first thing they say is. "shall I put the kettle on for a cup of tea". You could almost think it was set in England

*sigh*

He wasn't really in it. Eric Sykes was though. I'm wasted on you people.

Eric Sykes is indeed in it, and Harry H. Corbett makes a guest appearance as the owner of the abandoned fairground.

I'm going to watch this.

Eric Sykes is in it? Does he get involved in comedy situations with a ladder and Hattie Jaques?

Really though, Eric Sykes?

I kept expecting Terry & June to rise out of the ground in a zombie-like state.

When she was wandering in the fog, I thought she was trying to act her way out of a paper bag, it was like she went to mime school, and failed.
