The Legend of Kate Kensington (2021) User Reviews

Bogus reviews.

[jmariani-59799 · 1/10 · 13 October 2022]

Who's writing all these bogus reviews? People somehow related to the making of this film?

This was one of the most boring movies I've ever watched, although I admit I only made it half-way through. Maybe the last half was better but I highly doubt it.

Terrible writing, terrible directing, terrible camera work, terrible acting, and not worth your time.

That's all I have to say about this mess of a movie but I need 200 more characters in order to post this review so I'll just say this. It's disappointing that these bogus reviews so badly tilt the rating of movies and series. It makes their ranking so unreliable one can never tell what they're getting. In this case, one is getting not much worth the time.

Legend has it, Kate Kensington...

Is still writing bogus high reviews. The movie is not as exciting as the trailer. And the trailer is the biggest bore I've ever seen. This was an amateur-hour production even a fifth-grade drama class would laugh at. I will never get back the 108 minutes of my life back that I wasted watching this terribly written and directed mess. Even the performances were laughable - mostly in part do to the lack of proper cast direction. It's boring and watching paint dry is more exciting. If you don't have any fresh paint to watch dry, that's ok too, you can just read the clearly blatant high-rating reviews and you will find them more entertaining. It really speaks volumes in how little faith even the filmmakers have in their own production to resort to these type of tactics. Do yourself a favor and skip this nonsense that goes no where very slowly. Go buy some paint and watch it dry for a better time.

Depressing

[jeffrapage-29901 · 1/10 · 7 April 2023]

When they decided to produce this movie maybe they should have thought about making it a little less boring and a little less depressing even the trailer made you feel depressed I mean I can understand she lost her fiance and she was depressed but there was nothing good about this movie at all nothing happy it all ended in tragedy she didn't get the professional help she needed the acting was like on a sixth grade level whoever was producing this should be ashamed of themselves and should never produce another movie I don't understand why anybody would give this movie 10 Stars or even a good review I guess they must have been in charge of production.

Excellent movie for the entire family

[jcarterrmracing · 9/10 · 24 August 2021]

Cautiously optimistic at first about bringing our children (ages 8 & 11) to see a horror film with a premise of a ghost walking around a cemetery. As it turned out, it was a great movie with a great story. Some of the scenes were a bit scary for our youngest daughter, however, there was no blood, no gore, and no violence. We were all on the edge of our seats, particularly at the end of the film. Highly recommend this film for families.

Great movie!

[minunimion · 10/10 · 31 October 2022]

This time I'm writing this review only because I noticed that some reviewers gave it only 1 star and I think it's really unfair.

Everyone has the right to write everything they want, but... terribly written? Directed mess? Performances laughable? Seriously? Did we see the same movie? I don't think so, I enjoyed a great movie with a perfect pace, never boring, good acting and directing, so I'm totally satisfied.

Those kids are really wonderful in their performances, they really expressed the situation and they were absolutely amazing in their spontaneity.

Somehow, some adults weren't so able to express themselves like the children, but in the end all of the actors did a good job.

I'm not going to spoil this movie, because I want that everyone would have a chance to see it without knowing the plot.

Highly recommended.

Maybe I could give it a couple of stars less, but today I'm generous, because I can understand the big effort that everybody did to make this nice movie.

BTW, I'm not related to anybody of them, I'm just a honest person who likes movies and can understand that even the worst movie asked for many efforts to make it, sometimes it doesn't work as we would like, but I'm not going to condemn anybody. To me, even the worst movie (in my opinion) is always worth of at least 4 stars, never I'll give 1 star to it, but I would like to give 1 star to some reviewers.

Mesmerizing

[tgtsbtff · 10/10 · 13 August 2022]

I really got wrapped up in the story. I watch a lot of movies and a lot of them are the same old same old. This film has different very original flair.

Hauntingly Original Movie

[whitlockreality · 10/10 · 20 July 2022]

I was very impressed with the complexity of the plot. I thought they successfully twisted the story back and forth through time and with the visions of the main young character.

I see this film as a love story from a special perspective.

Well-Made, Well-Written Family Entertainment

[chuntington-39927 · 10/10 · 12 July 2022]

I was excited by the premise of this story which revolves around a young girl, Hayley Jennings, (Hayley Castillo) who suffers from unwanted psychic abilities.

This film is an old-fashioned ghost story, replacing gore with a genuine spooky atmosphere which is fueled by the solid performances of the three young main characters, Hayley, Carl & Lila. They all have great chemistry on screen together.

It's hard to say what it is that makes this movie a family masterpiece. It might be because of the superb mixture of drama, thriller and horror elements. Why all of these elements flow so well isn't only because of the wonderful directing and storyline, but also to the incredible acting by the lead character, Hayley Castillo. She is terrific in this role!

This is a wonderful film that can be shared with the entire family.

Great Cast!

[KenzoRutang · 10/10 · 28 August 2015]

I enjoyed working with the cast and crew of this Film. The director and and producer Brad Castillo is amazing great to work with, I look forward to the premiere in October! This was my first time on set and I enjoyed every minute of it. Brad was so easy to work with, very kind and patient. Thank you for giving me an opportunity of a lifetime Brad Castillo. Since I worked with Brad I have been in many other projects and have grown and learned so much.

I also look forward to doing more projects with Brad.

An overall lifetime achievement

[rldrooster · 10/10 · 3 May 2023]

This movie had a depressing/sad theme. War,love,afterlife etc etc. However, the true inspiration comes from the creator/director Brad Costello You see Brad was fighting a terminal illness just to achieve his life long dream to make movies. He was so ill many days, it took every bit of him to get out of bed many days. Was it one of his greatest pieces ? No Did he have A list actors? No, but each and everyone poured their hearts out every take, as did Brad.

It also provided an unforgettable family bond doing something they all love.

They created more then a movie! They created inspiration.for that know.

The best written show!

[kgrahamks · 10/10 · 7 February 2023]

I watched this via You Tube. This was so well written, the actors were amazing, from the youngest to the oldest. Kate Kensington character was so well played! I recommend this show to anyone and everyone. I cannot say enough good things. The fact that it was filmed locally to me (Citrus County) was so neat! Bravo to the writer and all the actors!!

I saw several people in this show that I know personally. I did not realize at the time that they were part of this. That in itself is so exciting! The storyline is so believable, it made me research to see if there really was a legend of Kate Kensington.

Once again - Bravo to all involved!
