    Shyamalan's horror-thriller might have the unsettling atmosphere but everything else instead falls flat and doesn't collaborate to make this film work. Viewers won't find themselves sleeping with the lights on. The screenwriting felt like it was done in a rush and the famous Shyamalan plot twist here is dull and comes of no suprise. The acting here is mediocre. The actress playing the grandmother made her character seem more hilarious than disturbing. Scariest part was the 13 year old's rapping.

    The Visit is a recommendable movie, though it isn’t the scariest movie that I have ever seen before it is nonetheless scary. Is it as scary as The Woman in Black? No, but I found it incredibly chilling and I enjoyed watching it. Nothing like a good scary movie to entertain the audience. I have only given this movie 4 out of 5 stars because I was expecting more of a scary atmosphere from this movie. In certain scenes, the fake grandparents were just too normal for my liking. If they were oddly scary in every scene then maybe I would have given The Visit 5 out of 5 stars. However The Visit is nonetheless a recommendable scary movie to watch.

    At first weary of a trail of disappointing M Night Shyamalan works coupled with a tired genre, I entered this experience with trepidation. However, the film delivers at all levels - the teenage daughter wanting to find absolution for her emotionally damaged mother, the young boy trying desperately to be The man in the house with some cringing and hilarious results, the bizarre estranged grandparents. The story starts slow enough to give insight into their lives and builds a rather beautiful picture of children discovering their roots. Some moments are painfully drawn out but for the good of the film. At times scary, heart-warming, tense and at times annoying too, the film moves through the week of the visit. All in all I am seeing why I keep watching Shyamalan's work - if only to find a gem like this one.

    A cat with a camera strapped to its back would create a better film than this. Im a film producer of 16 years and love all films. This is badly acted. Fake performances. Dreadful.
