YAWN - how lame. Oooh, thunder and lightning and big dark hospitals are so scary! Oh look, there's a murdered ghost who wants justice done, but instead of just appearing to someone (like say, her dad or the cops) and explaining the situation or leading them to the evidence, she invades a woman's body and drives her to commit a grisly murder. If you're a ghost, how can the person you are contacting in the hope that they'll find out who your murderer is, do you any good if they're locked up in a mental ward for murder themselves? Couldn't the ghost just leave the lady clues, or communicate with dreams or something? Anyway, this movie was so bland and predictable, there ain't nothin' here that you haven't seen before in a hundred other, MUCH better horror films. The Ring, The Sixth Sense, The Exorcist, Stir of Echoes, Poltergeist, The Changeling, Candyman - all of these movies are examples of much better vengeful ghost/possession stories. This is just mediocre crap, so I wouldn't waste the time or the rental fee if I were you. Halle Berry has got to be the most overrated actress ever...I don't watch many of her films but if this is a typical example of her acting, then I haven't missed anything. All she does is scream and cry through the whole film. There is absolutely no logic or thought put into this movie..there is nothing believable going on here AT ALL. Penelope Cruz is just annoying...not to be mean but I can kind of see why Tom Cruise broke up with her. She has a squeaky little voice and a really thick accent, plus she looks like a vulture...sorry. Anyway, there is really nothing good here, even Robert Downey, Junior is annoying, and the ghost is lame and hardly does anything. The movie also loses points for bombarding me with Fred Durst's screeching at the end, as if the movie wasn't bad enough without that. Please - PLEASE, avoid this mess.
