Shut In

From my point of view this movie was a good movie that has all ingredients which a suspense/thriller movie demands. Story was OK, acting was OK, dialogues were OK according to the scene neither more nor less, cinematography was also good. I think it was a perfect movie i don't know why people have given below 5 rating with bad comments. For me if you have to watch a suspense/ thriller and horror movie then there are some rules to apply before watching. first you make an environment for the movie, you have no other work to do between the movie, you don't talk between the movie, you don't even miss a single dialogue, your lights should turn off so that your focus should be completely on the movie. So i think those who have given it less than 5 rating did not apply those rules otherwise the rating of this movie should have been not less than 6.

It's crazy how bad movie production has become lately.. What is wrong writers and directors? This predictable movie stuff being produced now days is no excuse to blame on piracy or low sales.. It IS getting Ridiculous!

I practically sat there with my wife at the movies and could dam near predict almost half of what was going to happen past half way through the to the end.

Its a shame because this movie could have went so many other ways to give us something refreshing to look at.. but NO.. The laziness kicked in on this movie like many of the other crap being produced now..

It's getting bad!

Clinical psychologist Mary Portman lives with her paralyzed stepson Stephen and a recent accident killed her husband. Mary treats a deaf boy named Tom and one night he entered her home and just disappears from their. She starts to hear noises and she should find tom before the ice storm kills Tom. An empty thriller with a few lazy jumps- scares. The casting was good and Both Watts & Platt give their best shot. Clangs did his best on the soundtrack to create tension where none exists. Overall, it's a total waste of time.

... from EuropaCorp and director Farren Blackburn. Naomi Watts stars as a child psychologist working out of her home in snowy, remote Maine. She stays close to home to care for her teenage son (Charlie Heaton) who has been left in a vegetative state for the last six months since a car accident that also killed his father. Watts has grown weary of the burden, and has decided to move her son into a care facility, but she also has to deal with another patient, a mute boy (Jacob Tremblay), who has gone missing. As her mental state continues to deteriorate, things take a shocking turn when a massive blizzard hits, leaving her even more isolated.

Watts is a good actress, and she brings what little is good here. The "twist" should be obvious to even the dullest of viewers, and the final portion of the movie devolves into suspense film cliche. .

Not horror really, but suspenseful much of the time, with good cast and the storm helps fuel the suspense! A decent film
