Question 1: Please tell me why a child that size drowned in the bathtub?? Sit up kid. Question 2: Why is no one investigating her missing husband? Meanwhile she's doing "research" like most typical horror films trying to get to the bottom of it! Question 3: Does she even care that her husbands gone?? Nope. Doesn't seem to bothered by it. Question 4: Why were they so angry with her for giving him a sleeping pill only to hold him down to give him a shot??? Question 5: Why was the front door to the orphanage unlocked??? I think that's it. But I'm still pretty confused by the whole thing. Could have been great, but didn't quite get there.

This is the sweetest horror movie I've ever seen. Jacob Tremblay is heart-wrenchingly adorable in this movie and the character he plays is such an empathetic, sweet little boy, to the point that I was tearing up occasionally.

Last night i came through it on Netflix, first i watched its trailer and i find it very interesting and gripping. So i started watching movie and soon with some good moments it become repetitive and boring. Movie had a old concept of dream and sleep like in Freddy or nightmare on elm's street but with cute angle of little kid having superpower which make it good concept. But it didn't hold much as movie gets slow with time not gripping, thrilling enough and even horrors scene weren't scary. Good parts about movie is some scenes with little kid Cody(Jacob Tremblay) acting and ending was good. So overall its average, one time watch or you can watch it for Little Kid Jacob. Last scene also leaves room for sequel which i believe Netflix should try because movie have good concept and the Kid is really talented and we all have seen his Wonder.

I stumbled upon this movie on netflix, and thought I would give it a shot. I didn't know anything about it going in. The idea the creators had for this movie was really pretty good - unique, interesting, has depth that a lot of films these days lack. The acting was adequate, not necessarily the best I have seen from these actors, but it was ok. The worst part was the constant plot holes. It was just so hard to get into a movie when in the back of your mind you are saying, that would never happen like that, a person would never behave like that. And I'm not saying that the fantastical elements of the movie were unbelievable, I liked those parts and I love supernatural thrillers/dramas. But this movie just could have used someone in the writing procedure just look at things with a little more common sense about the way humans act. I still think it was not a waste of my time watching, and the idea was enjoyable, just if you are going to give it a go, try not thinking logically while you are watching and it may be more enjoyable.
