This film is absolutely amazing. A very touching story where you genuinely feel positive emotions for the 2 main characters. The main character Adele is extremely likable and you root for her throughout. Even when she makes her one real mistake of the movie you almost immediately have sympathy for her. The acting was fucking phenomenal. Both actresses deserved recognition from the Academy Awards. It is actually a disgrace that Adele Exarchopoulos didn't receive a nomination. Not only did she deserve the recognition but she should've won the award for Best Actress. The fact she didn't receive a nomination makes me wonder what the criteria is. She gave one of the best performances I have ever seen by anyone EVER. I prefer doing ratings on a scale of 1-10. I would give this a 9.1 out of 10. Since we have to use the star system and we can't give quarter and half stars I will have to go 5. I would go 4 3/4 stars but since it's closer to a 5 than it is to 4 it gets 5 stars. One of the biggest critiques people have with this film is because of the graphic sex scenes. Honestly I walked away from this film saying wow the French can make a really beautiful piece of art and have it feature graphic depictions of sex. 20 minutes after watching this I was still thinking of the main character Adele and still would get a lump in my throat. The fact her journey and the actresses performances so heavily outweighed the graphic depictions of sex should tell you all you need to know about this film.

Wow this movie is unbelievably terrible. It would've been better without the supernatural aspect. The biggest problem with this movie is the acting. I understand it was an homage to Friday the 13th but those movies actually had decent acting throughout the entire series. Almost every single line of dialogue in this film did not sound natural. The only person who acted well and seemed legit was the lady who picks the girl up in the pickup truck at the end. I mean I literally had to exclaim loudly how awful the acting was after almost every single line of dialogue. Terrible acting like that makes it so you can't lose yourself in the moment. The suspension of disbelief goes straight out the window when it's clear someone is reading lines and possibly didn't rehearse. The acting is comparable to one of those old straight to VHS/DVD releases. I actually did not have a problem with how they showed him walking. Him walking and a few kills were the only positives in this film. On a scale of 1-10 I am probably at a 1.2 for this film. I would go less than 1 star but it won't allow me to do it. On this 5 star scale I would go quarter of a star.
