Movie Reviews of Mirrors
Movie Review: The Unrated Version is "The Definitive" Version
Summary: 4 Stars
I rented this and it was pretty cool but a few scenes bugged me and I kinda laughed at how fake the fire looked in one scene in particular.
The I said what the heck and bought it. I was surprised the version I'd seen was NOT the unrated version. I'll be honest the bath tub scene and the sheer scariness and brutality of it was enough to get me to purchase this dvd and for that I am not dissapointed, despite several flaw in both the script, the story and the effects. The thing that bothers me the most is this movie had the potential to be truly terrifying. From the trailer I saw it had potential written all over it and things got kinda fumbled on the potential part but i still an entertaining film thanks to Keifer and Amy Smart.
If you had gotten to know his sister more, and really like her, perhaps she coudlve even had a bigger part? then the bathtub scene would have been that much more tramatic and gruesome and have garnered Keifer a bit more sympathy from us movie watchers. There's no reason at all togo with the theatrical version...Pity...
Movie Review: For a non-horror-fan, this was a good movie
Summary: 4 Stars
Much better than I expected. Most horror movies do nothing for me other than make me jump once or twice when I'm caught off guard. Stories are usually lacking and "common sense" seems to make the movie even worse. Mirrors has a good story and does a good job of telling that story although the split between husband and wife seems odd and misplaced because it is halfway explained (either explaining it more or not at all would have been better). When it comes to common sense, I don't remember talking to the characters in the movie to do this or do that. The only things I can see wrong with the movie would be the following: 1) the movie spends the majority of the time building up and then ends pretty quickly, squashing most of the "fight scenes" with the "horror scenes" in about 10 minutes time, and 2) the "re-watchable" factor for me is somewhat low (note: this doesn't take away from a movie being good but means it's not one I would want to see more than a few times at most).Movie Review: Mirrors
Summary: 4 Stars
If you are into spooky horror movies like "The Ring" you will probably enjoy "Mirrors". Keifer Sutherland does a good job as the main character that is an officer recovering from killing someone in the line of duty. He takes a job as a night watchman at a deserted site. His investigation as to the suspicious deaths at a burned out high end department store leads him to a psychiatric hospital and something evil in the mirrors. This is not for the squeamish. Some of the gory scenes rank with movies like "13 Ghosts". This is one horror you don't want anyone but true hardcore fans to watch. Good quality DVD with theatrical and unrated versions along with comments, documentary, and decent replayability. I give it three and a half stars. If you enjoyed this catch Ghost Ship (Widescreen Edition).

Movie Review: A decent horror flick
Summary: 4 Stars
I rented this movie after it was recommended to me through the Netflix recommendation system, and for the most part I was very satisfied.
Kiefer Sutherland plays an ex cop who becomes confronted by daemons that live in mirrors of a burnt-down New York department store. As they threaten him and his family, he uses all of his detective skills to destroy these sinister forces. The movie is well paced and well acted, with the music score and visuals that greatly enhance the whole experience. The twist ending also makes you rethink many aspects of the movie, which comes as an added bonus.
If you are looking for an entertaining horror flick and are not too squeamish about the cutting/dismembering scenes then give this movie a chance. It may not be the most outstanding horror film you'll ever see, but it's certainly worth watching.
Movie Review: AWESOME MOVIE MY 4 Stars
I was excited to see this movie, I don't know why but I was. I think it was an awesome movie with all actors doing a great job. Keifer Sutherland does good as an ex cop/alcholic trying to get his life on track agian only to get a new job as a security guard in a burnt down mall that is possessed by mirrors full of demons. Of course no one believe's him about the mirrors till it's to late for the non-believers, all in all it was a satisfying movie and the way Amy Smart's dies was AWESOME! Didn't mean to spoil it for anyone but it was great!! If you like scary movie's you have to see this, especially if you like The Exorcist or The Exeorcism Of Emily Rose, Oh yeah and the end has a little twist to it which kinda reminded me of M. Night. I give this 4 1/2 STARS not 4.
