Abandoned

I don't think I have every watched a movie where a crying baby was the highlight of the show. It was extremely loud and annoying. And the cries didn't even match the babies expressions. Once of the few movies where I had to skip the majority of the scenes where they try to soothe the crying baby. Wish it had more to do with the haunting... if there was even one. Would have liked to know more about the ghosts but maybe i just missed the story because of all the fast forwarding I had to do. Could have been a lot better had the focus been on the thriller part and not all about the screaming crying baby.

5 questions I kept asking myself as I watched this:

What's happened with Michael Shannon?

Why is the baby crying so much?

What's the relevance of the pigs?

What happened in the end?

Why am I watching this?

They should have named the movie Baby Crying, it would have been more accurate to the plot and I could have easily avoided it. Stay away even if you can't find anything else to watch, just stare at a wall.

I'll make this quick, if you don't mind a baby crying in 40% of the film, extremely boring dialog, Emma Roberts being emotionless and a drawn out story of so call eeriness, than have at. The only horror there was, was watching it.

WTH was that? I have no idea what I just watched. I was totally lost with the ending. Maybe there was some subliminal message there but whatever it was went right over my head. Movie was extremely slow and just all around dull. Not a film I'd watch again or recommend. 4 stars.
