Review: Mirrors

Director: Alexandre Aja

Starring: Kiefer Sutherland

Year: 2008

Genre: Horror

Rated: R

Length: 110 min.

IMDB Summary: An ex-cop and his family are the target of an evil force that is using mirrors as a gateway into their home.

Review:
This film has a plot full of twists and turns. Although the acting is sub-par, the plot keeps viewers on the edge of their seats. Also, there are only a few extremely graphic moments throughout the film. Most of the tension comes from fear of the unknown. The most disappointing part of the film is the ending scene, which in spite of its cleverness does not leave viewers with a feeling of resolution. Though not a classic by any stretch, Mirrors makes for an entertaining--and truly scary--movie.

For Parents:
Some moments of graphic violence and disturbing images
