Movie Reviews of What Lies Beneath

Movie Review: This was a very eerie movie.
Summary: 5 Stars

"What Lies Beneath" was a great movie. I have to admit, I was not expecting for this movie to be that great, due to its PG-13 rating. I figured that it would have needed an R rating to be truly scary. However, I was wrong; I spent a lot of time covering my eyes. Michelle Pfeiffer plays a woman named Claire, who has been experiencing hauntings in her home, mainly while her husband, Norman, played by Harrison Ford, is at work. While trying to get to the bottom of the mysterious hauntings, Claire enlists the help of her husband, friend, shrink, others, as well as a Ouija board. Soon, Claire has flashbacks about a certain "dilemma" from the previous year. The viewer will not be bored as Claire gradually learns who the ghost is.

Movie Review: This movie is just plane SCARY!
Summary: 5 Stars

What lies beneath is a tense, twisting, scary ride with nonstop suspense. The people who star in this movie are Harrison Ford and Michelle Pfeiffer. They play a happily married couple who think they have the perfect marriage when Michelle starts hearing voices and starts seeing things in her house. She tells her husband who thinks its her imagination. But then she starts guessing the story to what she think happened to the person she sees. Then Ford realises that she has guessed to what happened to her and he must stop her before she can tell anyone. This movie is GUARANTEED to keep you on the edge of your seat! It is rated PG-13 for Terror/Violence Sexuality And some language. I give it 5 stars and you will not be dissapointed. Have fun and enjoy!

Movie Review: I would say WATCH IT WITH THE LIGHTS ON!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

Creepy, creepy, creepy! This movie, with it's slow-building suspense and frighteningly realistic gohstly images is a real BLOOD CHILLER! Seriously, this movie is ten times more "edge of the seat" than The Sixth Sense. It is, in a word, TERRIFYING - probably, because they make everything seem so believable. Michelle Pfeifer and Harrison Ford do a superb job of acting in this spooky story about a ghost who, at first, makes Clair (Pfeiffer) feel like she's going crazy, and her husband Norman (Ford) who is hiding a secret. If you like supernatural thrillers that have the power to raise the hairs on the back of your neck, then What Lies Beneath is for you! One word of warning, though, do NOT watch this movie ALONE!

Movie Review: The BEST Hitchcock wannabe EVER
Summary: 5 Stars

This isn't saying much (after all, this was the year of "Urban Legends- Final Cut") but it is the best scary movie of the year! I was surprised that they could make a scary movie that was (gasp!) intelligent! Michelle Pfiffer's performance is really great in this, and it's nice to see her in a movie good enough to deserve her ("The Story of Us", anyone?). The ending was the biggest shock since "The Sixth Sense" and the final bathtub scene was one of the best scary movie scenes ever. Zemekis is obvoiusly trying to bring back memories of Hitchcock, but that's not a bad thing. The beginning is kind of slow, but stick with it because the cheap thrills turn into genuinely scary stuff.

Movie Review: Outstanding, Complicated Emotional Drama
Summary: 5 Stars

I really enjoyed this movie. There are a few slow moments, and a couple of awkward edits. But Michelle Pfiffer gives a very surprising and versatile performance. The story combines a tragic romance with a psychodrama in very balanaced amounts.

This is a thinking man's horror film, with elements that are just real enough to be appealing--and very startling. There aren't any characters that run into the basement when being chased, or garrish special effects. The characters seem real and their fears are painfully beleivable.

The sound is outstanding, and the picture is very rich. Details in the shadows and the many important reflected images make for a great picture and a pleasing DVD.
