Eli

Close! So close, but no cigar here folks. Two first acts that went down smooth and lovely and then that final one which simply put, ruined everything. Perhaps it is a rarer outcome sure, unlikely to predict, but just seemed way out of place.

Eli is a movie that came with a close to perfect horror script, seriously great acting, good atmosphere, but however you look at it, in the end most likely you'll feel disappointed. No cherry on the top, no fat lady singing, just a premise and an execution to match it, till the very end.

Sure, I will recommend this one, because it delivers far more and better than most such productions out there, don't try to guess the final act, no point into it really, just enjoy it for as long as you can. I hope it will seem more natural to you than it did to me.

Cheers!

The film was enticing and decent up until the end which I found disappointing.

The movie started off great , really enjoyed this . Until about the last half an hour , where it took a totally different route , I think in an attempt to blow your mind but it just falls flat .

Well it wasn't terrible... I actually liked the scares in it but I kept waiting for the story to pull me in and it didn't. Felt like this was set up to be good and the story just didn't pick up then took a left when it should have gone right and the ending actually was terrible!

Horror movies are the easiest movies to review, most of the time you either like it or you don't. It's a genre where almost everything possible has been done before so to come up with an original story isn't the easiest thing to do. Eli is innovative I thought, it's entertaining from beginning till the end, and that mostly due to the constant mystery that hovers over the movie. There is a good portion of suspense, the cast is good, all actors did a good job creating that special dark ambiance. There are some nice twists so it's not that you will figure out the whole story immediately. As for the horror it might be mild for the hardcore horror fans but still it is entertaining. My wife is easily scared and so was she with Eli.
