UnowPriceless hyped garbage

Forumrxes Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Caryl It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

TheBlueHairedLawyer While there were a few little things in this film that I think could have been improved or further explained (the ghostly owl girl for instance why?), I don't think this one was bad for a TV story. So it looks a little older, so what? It's not overloaded with digital modernity but instead relies on eerie imagery and a classic nostalgia look to it. I wouldn't call it "scary" per-say, but the way that it becomes one giant metaphor for grief and loss was interesting and creative. I think this film deserves a much better rep than what it has. It's not amazing or anything, but it's still worth having a look at.

Spikeopath Nutshell.Patrick Bergin plays a bereaved father racked by guilt who begins to see spooky things. He seeks the help of Vanessa Redgrave's medium and the meditation of grief and the will indeed will out!Bergin is so much better than this, why he never graduated to the bigger league is probably explained in a film like this. Where he literally is reduced to smell the fart acting, half heartedly hitting walls when his wife chastise's him for carrying such burdens on his shoulders. Redgrave literally is going through the motions, probably prompted by somebody off screen waving the cheque she is earning for this nonsense.It looks like it was filmed 20 years earlier, but not in a good way, it's devoid of scares, suspense or even intelligence (no the Lost Soul angle doesn't compensate for anything), while the dialogue is as cheese laden as the misty lenses director John Korty thinks passes for atmosphere. UGH! 2/10

sugerfoot I picked this out of a dollar bin at a movie liquidator store with low expectations. Good thing. It's not a horrible movie, but it really is only t.v. fare. The story is one of a man who loses his daughter in an accident, and feels that after her death he needs to make up for ignoring her while she was still alive. Various clues lead him to an old woman who somehow helps him reconnect with his dead daughter.Oh, and some kid is dressed like an owl for reasons unknown.The main actor was pretty bad, it seemed like he was trying to cover an accent, but let it slip occasionally, making him sound quite...unusual. Ms. Redgrave was the only saving grace in the film.I'd give it 2 stars out of five.

Vesta-4 A predictable story. (For some reason the title is now running as: The Children of the Mist.) I kept wanting to shout to Vanessa Redgrave to "Wake UP, for heaven's sake". She seemed to be in some sort of dream state; maybe trying to forget her involvement with such a dreary production.
