Kuwaresma

When I saw previous reviews praising this movie, I asked myself if they really watched the same film I did. The first few minutes were intriguing but then you will soon realize that Kuwaresma is just one hot mess of a film that is trying too hard. The script is amateurish and most of the time, non-sensical. Stop treating your viewers like they are dumb and maybe movies like these will start becoming better.

The essence of a good movie is foremost a good story and for a horror movie to hit the mark is for it to be scary... None of these elements are present in the movie. The way how the story runs is flatly disappointing...as if the movie was written by a prime grader...even the scripts aren't making hits most of the time.. it founded on a good start but gradually plunges to the ground until the end...but the actors are good, they were just misplaced in a wrong movie.

In a total of 1hr and 54mins you'll end up in a weird plotless movie. Its back and fourth search for the truth is quite boring. You'll fail to pick a character you'd root for. The musical scoring is not well thought off it probably used a mono channel so you dont get to experience that creeping from left to right sound and you wont get to have that tense feeling of a possible jump scare because you already know its coming. The back story of it all was poorly written. You'd get a far-fetched Amityville vibe. The characters we're okay but their stories weren't enough to get you to fully engage with the film like it lack motivation you wouldn't have strong feelings for them, you wouldn't care if evil or good wins. It wastes time as it progresses there could've been a better way to explain the plot but it just gives you flashbacks that arent useful at all, it confirms things but it doesn't explain the whole gist of whats actually going on. The make up was okay, placement of jump scares were decent. But the whole story is just, i cant even. To be honest I'd want to get back the time I've wasted watching this film.

I highly recommend everyone to choose another film if you don't want to wasting time like me. The film script is so terrible that make the film terrible too. I wasting my wonderful night with my brother to watch this film. What a disappointed film

Patience is needed to watch this film with its slow pace of a story. It's a mishmash of clichés "borrowed" from horror movies of the past. The characters navigating areas of their home through secret pathways within the walls of their house is such a "People Under The Stairs" ripoff, particularly the scene involving the boy and the dog. Dull and disappointing. P.S. The film is also quite dark, literally speaking, that you'll need to turn up the brightness of your TV screen or tablet.
