I really hate seeing everyone being so hard on this movie because I honestly think it was clever and well thought out. It had many creepy and unsettling scenes and filled with Jumpscares. It’s nothing terrifying but it’s for sure a good scare. As for the story, yes it’s cliche at some parts but I think that those themes were very well potrayed, not to mention the fake outs in the ending made the movie 10 times more suspenseful and really enhanced the watch experience for me. The performances were very strong with a highlight from Pyper Braun who played Alice. . It felt very creative as it should since it has heavy themes on imagination and the never ever was so well designed and I find it an outstanding representation on what a child’s imagination could look like. The visual effects were solid and the creature at the end looks great. And overall it was again, a suspenseful, eerie and very well thought out movie. I really liked it and I would definitely recommend it to someone who loves a simple good scare. It could totally end up being a classic for me.
