Very slow moving at first, then everything seems to happen really fast. Having watched this just the once, I?m still placing pieces together, so am not sure if I totally got it.

I love horror films, but I think they work way better when they hide a dramatic impact behind (The Devil's Backbone, The Exorcist, for example). This is that kind of film, and it's not only eerie and terrifying when it has to be, it is also really beautiful. A Tale of Two Sisters...( read more)

i'll keep it simple. it has some really creepy moments but very predictable and cliche.

I love it!Awesome film!Very well done from start to finish.The soundtrack is very heart moving.A movie u must see ;).

Hard to follow the first time, but do yourselves a favour and re-watch it again. It's a fabulous film.
