CASE 39

Case 39 centers on an idealistic worker who saves an abused 10 year old girl from her parents only to discover that the girl is not as innocent as she thinks. Playing the worker Emily Jenkins is Renee Zellweger who did a decent acting on her part but for me credit should be given to Jodelle Ferland who plays Lillith Sullivan.

I mean the girl was cute but scary, especially the part when she confronted Douglas (Bradley Cooper) and also the scene between her and Emily, when she tried to count Emily to get out from under the bed.

My only disappointment on this film is the way Lillith was killed , I mean she can break down a door with several locks but cant hold off Emily when she was being pushed down while the car is drowning. The movie is a decent thriller with some great scare but still not above the movie Orphan which for me is still the best. But still this movie would not be a disappointment if you buy a copy or even rent one.

MIRRORS

Mirrors is a remake of the Korean film of 2003 which tells the story a guy that picks up a job as a night-watchman in what is left over of a burned down department store. What starts as a somewhat dull somewhat creepy job quickly turns into a living nightmare. Although for me nothing beats the original Korean version of the movie. And it sometimes break the surprise the movie gives, since i have seen the original one. The only thing i like in the US version is the bath tub scene, where Ben Carson (Kiefer Sutherland) sister Angela's(Amy Carson) mouth got rip wide open. But for those of you who havent seen the US or the Korean version its a nice movie to watch, whith some gore moments and the ending which gives a surprising twist.
