It feels a little odd to put Whisper into the Horror movie genre. Everything not regarding the kidnapped boy, David, has this Thriller vibe to it. At times you can even call it a Psycho Thriller. But that is fine, because this way fans of connecting genres may find this movie interesting as well. Most outstanding acting in my opinion were those of Joel Edgerton and Josh Holloway, although I get the feeling that Holloway always has to reprise his role as "Sawyer" of the Lost series. Don't get me wrong, he does this great, but I bet there would be more potential in this actor which could be brought to the screen. Blake Woodruff in his role as David absolutely makes you think of movies of the Omen franchise and even though we are watching a child actor, he absoutely inhabits the role of an adult. There is nothing child-like on this character. Sometimes this can feel a little too polished and also the ending about who was behind the entire kidnapping job, is someting we have seen many times before. Just a little more creative writing would do this movie a big favour.
