Haunting - Good for Halloween
17 November 2009
I have read the negative reviews and find I do agree with many of them. The movie moves slowly, and has many boring parts. However, the overall feeling when I was finished was, haunted and perplexed.

Jennifer Connelly , well she is just Jennifer, and an incredible looking woman. She is worth the price of the movie, just to see her on the screen, even the small screen. Billy Crudup, well I really did not notice him much.

Interestingly, this is Jennifer's second film regarding the same activism subject. She also starred with Antonio Bandares in a movie called "Love In The Shadows", about the same subject. I do not think she has any ties to this subject, that took place when she was a three year old growing up in Catskill, New York. I think Jennifer just plays her parts very well and really gets into her roles. The movie also focuses on the US political system, and election process. The movie comments on reasons people do not like the US politicians and reasons for someone to want to be involved in it.

Most of all, if you stay with this movie from beginning to end, you will have a question, by the end. You will never really answer it, either. When you see the DVD, you may feel an erie need to answer it, by looking through everything on the DVD and re-watching the movie. But you'll never get an answer. But you should see it and decide for yourself, what you think the answer is.
