Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A pleasing melange under the direction of Mark Waters, who, after Freaky Friday and Mean Girls, is becoming the go-to auteur of traumatized youth.
– Richard Corliss,

rotten:
I found it to be more irritating than scary, more tedious than exciting.
– Richard Roeper,

fresh:
Fast-paced and filled with neat special effects, it's a sure kid-pleaser, albeit one that suffers from the very elements that make it go down so easily.
– Keith Phipps,
AV Club,

fresh:
The storytelling is economical and brisk. In some ways, Waters approaches it more as a pre-teen horror movie.

The result is effective, if too intense for younger children.
