Have you seen it? I know a lot of people didn't like the movie, but what did you think of it?


I actually enjoyed the movie, it creeped me out for getting just a PG-13 rating here in the U.S. I thought the ending wrapped it up well also. I wasn't like "Oh damn, that was all?" so I'm glad. Please put spoiler in the subject if your reply has spoilers. Thanks.

I saw it, and was disappointed by it. You could see what they were trying to do with it, but it felt like they just didn't get there. Hopkins performs well, but the script just wasn't enough to make it work for me.

I am profoundly anti-religion, and was worried that this movie would be too Catholic for me, but it is was not too preachy. Not a bad movie, but Hopkins has done much better.

I saw it tonight and it was pretty scary up until he saw the mule, after that I felt it didn't really capture the feeling it was trying to project. The Exorcism of Emily Rose did a much better job IMO.

I saw a review on it saying wait for the dvd to hit redbox, rent it and skip to the last 20 minutes or so when Hopkins goes crazy, since that seems to be the best bit of the movie.
