Review of Our House

Our House (I) (2018)
7/10
More interesting than scary
12 June 2020
A typical tale of bringing back what should probably remain dead. The first half is rather prolonged and not very exciting. The second half is a lot better. That's not to say it's a bad film at all. It's very well acted and it's obvious they've done the best job on a limited budget.

The only part that I didn't like was the final few minutes. Playing Fiction Factory's "(Feels like) Heaven" over the final scenes (which also included dialogue) just didn't fit at all. Almost as if the director or producer really liked that song and said "I MUST have it in the movie!".

I feel a shock ending would have been better - especially given the range of the device - revealing unintended consequences elsewhere.

A solid seven stars for this one. Well worth a watch.
