Mostly good reports here folks so I think I'll give it a go. I just hope it's not another movie similar to The Happening because I thought that film was soo bad

It was okay but I wish the make up team had been a bit more realistic. How her perfectly made up face remains intact through the whole film is just silly.

If you have a couple of hours to spare, and are into the end is nigh type of movie, then you might enjoy it? I still don't know what the evil force was?

Liked it, thought the concept was refreshing

Doesn’t suit the type of person that needs every detail explained tho...leaves a fair amount to your own interpretation x

A world all of his own

Watched it Saturday evening over a friends.

It was good, I enjoyed it but it had "borrowed" a few too many elements from other books/films though which let it down a little.

Somewhere Only We Know

Thought it was mediocre really. A lot of plot holes with unanswered questions. Seemed like it was a rushed effort.

I haven't seen that yet, but it looks scarier and more perilous.

Personally I really liked it. I watched it because I heard about it on the radio, I thought they were talking about a series. I was really disappointed when I realised it was a film.

Loved it.

Avoiding spoilers...I give the ending a weak 6/10. The film overall is a good 7/10. Acting was very good all round, some good concepts and it had me happily watching it.

Totally not scary. Or at least it in a horror type way. It’s a thriller I’d say.

Without question pal

I just watched it there when I got in from work and it wasn't a bad show at all, Certainly not scary. I have a vivid imagination so I'm pretty sure I know exactly what the creatures look like lol

Worth a watch if you haven't seen it

I thought it was good, but I didn’t find it particularly scary. Watched it on my own, in my break during the night shift, in a very haunted old hospital.. and I’m easily frightened

Not scary in the slightest, I hate scary films and my 11 year old sat and watched it with me, a couple of ewwww bits but that’s literally it

This is my criticism , I don’t need a happy ending, but I do feel better with closure. And not knowing kind of left a moment of ‘oh, is that it?’ At the end. It was as if a different writer finished the story , and handed the script in without the last page... the director thought that was it and worked with what he had.

Hefty Hideaway

My daughter watched this then insisted I watch it. She had to promise me it wasn’t scary and lured me in with ‘it’s a lovely ending’. I adored it. I didn’t feel let down by the ending. After all I definitely didn’t want to see. I cried like a bloody baby during the last scene though

God its fucking shit. Nowhere near as bad the happening but if you want a good story about people driven to suicide then watch the Red Dwarf episode Back to Reality.

It's really good but nothing as amazing as most people make it out to be. It's definitely not scary! Jumpy in a couple of scenes but nothing worth hiding behind the sofa for lol.

the only point you got to see anything was within the iris of someones eyes.

nothing was shown even within a reflection.

I still prefer a quiet place.

I’m going to watch that next.

Hopefully we don’t start to see an influx of endings like these where the viewer has to make his own mind up. Has anyone watched How It Ends???
