Review of Sinister

Sinister (I) (2012)
4/10
Seriously all the good reviews?

Really, don't fall for the good reviews here because the movie is NOT that scary or creepy, or good at all. Don't get me wrong, I love slow pace detective sorta movie, I'm not the kind that only into mindless action/gory so that's not the reason why I think this movie is bad. The fact that they make the movie seems like there will be an actual smart explanation to the mystery is what makes it very disappointing. The beginning show some potential, it actually makes me wanna follow the main character in his quest to finds out the truth on what actually happened to the families and who was the killer. But then, like any bad movie, after piling up all the questions, making us wait for answers (and even make me do some thinking and speculation there), it just dump a very typical ghost story at the end. The ending won't be as disappointing if they removed the detective "feel" in the movie and just make it a mindless ghost/spooky action like Insidious.
