You're Not Alone

You're Not Alone simply has no idea what it wants to be. It's a senseless mix of a family drama, supernatural thriller and even a bit of a slasher. Ultimately none of it ever achieves the climax. Occasionally good actress Katia Winter is painful to watch as a main protagonist even compared to her screen daughter portrayed by Leya Catlett. The script is plain awful in every single - did Andrew Wong ever realized he wrote a character with the single line 'Mrs. Nibbles!' that is repeated like 15 time? And the sound editing is perhaps one of the worst ones ever. Extremely cheap and bland nonsense.

Don't waste your time, this is at the most a thriller, with some jump scares. If you absolutely love a movie that ends in a huge cliff hanger with a lot of questions to be answered and frankly makes no sense on how it ended go ahead and waste your time.

A failed Boogeyman clone. That's what this movie WISHES it was.

I saw its low IMDB score before watching, but remained neutral, and thought I'd give it a try. I was not expecting a masterpiece, but was STILL disappointed.

For 3/4 of the time nothing happens, while the general tone and acting makes you feel depressed and bored, not scared.

(TRIGGER WARNING for people struggling with depression and suicidal thoughts!)

You don't care about any characters, they are lifeless to begin with. Probably poor acting or directing.

When the action finally kicks in (after 70 boring minutes!) it's random and makes no sense.

Finally the movie closes on a poor attempt at a plot twist (which was random and made no sense, again).

Not worth your time.

I personally liked it very much. If you're a horror movie lover you will certainly like this.There's not even a single second that you feel bored. From the beginning to the end you'll stay thrilled!! And the twist in the climax is awesome. I was like "omg didn't see that coming" i could not stop crying. The bathroom alone is so scary! And beware of the You're Not Alone.it'll give you unexpected jumpscares..

This movie not only had potential, but manages to trick you and trick you and get you closer to the edge of your seat for the biggest of surprises lately seen: NOTHING HAPPENS!

Yet, the execution in the first 2 acts manages to grow on you and gets you into thinking there is a lot more to see here, but you'll have to be patient. Problem is, the last act went straight downhill, with an under mediocre execution, idea, development, disrespectful and annoyingly way to end a movie. It should not have happened but sadly this is all we get.

All in all, the 3rd act has been seen many times before, recently even, but I won't name those movies out because it would completely waste the little effort put into You're Not Alone, so if you do decide to watch it, do so but expect to get frustrated and that alone.

Cheers!
