Review of The Hole

The Hole (2009)
3/10
that's horror? that's a snooze-fest, a hole in cinema history.

Warning: Spoilers
I never felt that bored watching a horror. it felt soooo old and everything really predictable that I saw it a mile away b4 it happened.

I didn't give it a 1, just because the beginning was intriguing and I was curious to know what's inside the hole. but man was I disappointed.

every scene with that scare loud sound coming felt very predictable knowing nothing will come out of it. I never felt through the movie that the characters were in real danger of death to care about them. the characters never gave us that feeling that they cared enough about the monster of the whole for us to care. come on, they got a baseball bat and sat nearby the hole? a danger lurking for the little brother, so he left him in the garden to go after the neighbors' girl? are we supposed to actually believe the gate could be locked with regular locks, but a huge safe couldn't do the trick? what did stop the "fears" to unbreak the locks by the same force that removed a huge safe/closet..

Horrors that contain little creepy girls are usually very creepy but this... I nearly felt asleep during the movie.

are we supposed to believe that by vanquishing his dad the hole was back to normal when the mom saw it and it's the end of it? are we supposed to believe that the fear could kill the creepy light guy but all the heroes can easily escape it? why couldn't he? why didn't he even get to fight it? and yea btw, if everyone's fear is personal, how did he know that he must draw the huge giant that was holding his little brother..

all in all predictable, nothing to fear, boring, illogic. if it's made for little kids it might work, but not for adults, it insults my intelligence.
