Lair

Aside from not being very impressed with the male lead's acting, this was ok. It's one of the better British horror films I have seen but it was lacking in quality actors.

WTF?? I don't remember seeing worst dialogue than In this movie in my life. It's embarrassing.

The relationship between the characters is schizophrenic! And the cuts?? I can't with there ratings. Just watch if your intention is to trash something.

I see complaints about actors when in reality they werent that bad. The real evil in this movie was the script. It's full of 2nd hand jokes that keep getting reused, completely tasteless and boring. There were so many unnecessary scenes between the two older women that didn't contribute to the storyline at all. It's mildly frustrating because you honestly just want them to "get on with it " awful CGI. The ending created more questions than answering any. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THIS MOVIE IS ABOUT!!!

Started off ok despite the mediocre acting and slow start. Then, deteriorates badly. More bad acting, plot holes, a ridiculous storyline and even more ridiculous horror effects.

Set in London, it would be assumed they are staying in holiday accommodation, yet much of the story doesn't add up. Characters are annoying and are unpredictable in a nonsensical way.

Wouldn't even say this is a horror as really not scary. Some of the effects would be laughable if they weren't so bad. I foolishly decided to watch till the end which was a mistake as was a complete waste of time. Best avoided if you are looking for a horror.

I must admit that I was expecting a tad more from the 2021 horror movie "Lair" frmo writer and director Adam Ethan Crow than what he managed to deliver here. Sure, I had not even heard about the movie prior to sitting down to watch it. But it being a new horror movie and having an interesting enough synopsis, then of course I had to watch "Lair".

And I will say that "Lair" was watchable, for sure. But it was by no means a milestone in horror cinema. Nor was it actually much of anything outstanding. In fact, once you've seen the movie, chances are slim that you will ever return to watch it a second time, as the storyline just doesn't have the contents to support more than a single viewing.

The pacing of the storyline is rather bland and slow, and whenever director Adam Ethan Crow does set the stage for someething sinister, the build-up is rather anti-climatic or just fails to deliver something wholesome. And that makes for a somewhat swing and a miss movie.

I saw that the movie had Oded Fehr on the cast list, and that was initially the main reason for me sitting down to watch "Lair". But imagine my surprise when I found out that he wasn't even in the movie a whole five minutes.

On the account of acting, then it should be said the actor Corey Johnson definitely carried the movie rather well, despite him not being the actual main actor in the movie. Also Alana Wallace did put on a rather good performance in "Lair".

Visually then "Lair" was bland. The movie didn't offer much of anything interesting in terms of memorable, spooky or interesting visuals. And whatever was there, was just not given enough screen time.

For a horror movie then "Lair" just didn't manage to deliver or bring anything new to the genre. And for a seasoned horror veteran such as myself, then it was a mere stroll through the park sitting through "Lair".

My rating of "Lair" lands on a less than mediocre four out of ten stars, as I was left with a rather hollow sensation and a feeling of 'was that really it?' once the movie ended.
