If you are a fan of ghost movies and dramas, you will probably like this
although it was way too much over-acting and drama for what the movie needed, felt like i was watching some amature actors at a stage "TO BE OR NOT TO BE, THAT IS THE QUESTION!" with lots of tears and screaming following
only thing that saved this movie from me giving it a 2 or 3/10 was the ending, not to spoil anything i can say... predictable but good
if you have nothing else to do, watch it... however there are MANY better movies out there.. horror or drama...

Its been many a year sense a movie has affected me like this one. I use the word disturbing in the sense that it cut through my hard venered, sensory hardened
mind. It stayed with me like few movies do these days. Well paced & acted.

10/10Must See
A pale Nicole Kidman shines in the quiet darkness of a house on Jersey Island in 1945, where her two children, photosensitive because of a rare skin condition, require that light be contained, "like water in a ship," by the closing of curtains and locking of doors. Having read reviews that mentioned enshrouding fog, whispering voices, and a piano that plays by itself, I worried Kidman's character would be something like Morticia from the Addams Family. Instead, director Alejandro Amenabar spins these well-worn elements into an elegant web. Amenabar also composed the spare, mournful music, which gives the movie its power, such as the haunting one-violin elegy that accompanies Mrs. Mills (Fionnula Flanagan) up the dark, narrow stairway to her servant's quarters.

Excellents script! Honest Acting! A complex plot so well shown. Comes in the league of the Sixth Sense. A must see for everyone. Nicole Kidman is excellent and is a good example of a versatile actress.

excellent
I enjoyed watching this at the cinema and later on DVD, even though I already knew the twist at the end. It's well made (even the kids are not so annoying) and Nicole Kidman was perfectly cast in her role.

creepy and good
Very well-made film. There's a strange family: a mother with children who can't be in sunlight. They think they have a ghost in their home... and they're probably right. An award-winning film that deals with the supernatural in an interesting way.
