Movie Reviews

The Mail on Sunday (UK) - 9/10 by Matthew BondDormer is a refreshing presence but the film is short of genuine, grown-up scares.
SF Weekly - 9/10 by Jeffrey EdalatpourSomeone made the decision to economize on story and amp up the chase sequences.
Assignment X - 9/10 by Abbie BernsteinIt has ghosts, it has atmosphere, it's well-acted and scary. Yes, it tries too hard in some respects, but it's a respectable effort, and it works well enough to be worth watching.
Salt Lake City Weekly - 8/10 by Andrew WrightA good setting can do wonders for a genre film, and director Jason Zada has landed a beaut here.
Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Bill ZweckerWith a nice, unexpected twist at the end, The Forest delivers as a healthy dose of psychological cinematic terror and an impressive first feature directing effort.
AV Club - 8/10 by Jesse HassengerThe movie seems to be conceived as a slow burn, but it's more like a faucet dripping lukewarm water.
Entertainment Weekly - 7/10 by Christian HolubPerhaps the biggest problem with The Forest is that it’s ultimately not very scary.
One Guy's Opinion - 7/10 by Frank SwietekBased on a promising premise but quickly devolves into a grab bag of routine "gotcha" moments embedded in a plot that slides into incoherence and torpor.
The Atlantic - 7/10 by Lenika CruzWith no compelling characters, scares, or plot points to redeem The Forest, the best option for those ​curious about Aokigahara is probably to watch a 20-minute 2005 VICE documentary about it.
Starburst - 6/10 by Paul MountAlthough the movie's hardly destined to figure on anyone's 'top ten horror movies' list, it's guaranteed to provide a few thrills and spills for the ninety-odd minutes you spend in its company in the multiplex.
