Overall: 17 (Love It - Must See)
This movie was unique. I have not seen anything like it, and I loved it.
I was totally engaged with this movie from the moment it started though the end. It is not necessarily a happy story, but it manages to be optimistic and enjoyable to watch despite that.
Writing: 6 (Love It - Must See)
More a thriller than a horror movie, it is amazingly written and edited. Everything in the movie had a reason and a place. There was no fluff or waste, which made watching it feel fantastic. The only scene that really bothered me was where the kids were sinking into the grain as if it were quicksand. Having been raised on a 600-acre farm with a grain silo, I can tell you that people do not sink into grain like that.
Presentation: 5 (Strongly Like)
The visuals in the film were good. The acting was really good, particularly Emily Blunt who manages to make you really believe she is about to die--while delivering a baby and fighting off a monster.
