Hide and Seek
Just saw this trailer on the apple site and thought I'd share
http://www.apple.com/trailers/fox/hi...ler_large.html
Looks really creepy and it's got little girl extraordinaire Dakota Fanning and Mr. DeNiro too. Hope it's good.

I saw an advanced screening of this tonight. Not bad, but not great either. I would have waited for a rental if it wasn't free.
That said, Fanning is great as usual and Deniro redeems himself for some of the lame comedies he's done as of late.
What held it back (warning: spoils the ending!):

Wow. I almost nailed that ending. I had predicted that

SEEK is a fairly drab and lifeless thriller. If there wasn't a film made last year with the exact same ending, it would appear more fresh. It's funny how Fox is reduced to publicity stunts now to get people to see this.
But that's what you get when you keep hiring the director of SWIMFAN.

Shue has a pretty small part. But I get what you're saying...

Saw a new commercial for this last night and you know it's not good when they quote words that praise it...such as "chilling", "brilliant" etc...yet don't mention the source.

Berardinelli pwned it.
Says Fanning was good though.

I wonder if Fanning will continue to make movies when she is an adult?

Looks like this one has a 32% on the tomatometer as of right now, but there aren't a ton of reviews. I was kind of hoping this would be good, because DeNiro can be such a great actor and its been a while since there was an R rated horror film out.

I saw a pre-screening of this tonight and was bored to death. The first 3/4 of the movie is soooooo slow.
I give this movie 1 star out of 4. I would've been pissed if I actually paid to see this.
The only highlights were Elisabeth Shue & Famke....not their acting, but just cuz they're eye candy

Fanning isn't a bad actress, but she's entering that moment in her career when Hollywood is hiring her a bit too much becuase they're too lazy to find other child actors.
It happened to Culkin. Look at him now! He's awful.
If it were up to me, kids would only act once or twice, then move on. Agents and parents ruin that natural spark.

Anyone see the new TV Spot for this movie? Totally spoils the movie. I was quite shocked, I hadn't even seen the movie but could tell the commercial spoiled it. Pathetic marketing techniques.
