Wall

A great slasher-gem with both balls, gore and tension to spare. Cecile DeFrance, who plays the protagonist, goes beyond the call of duty for this type of movie and gives a riveting performance. I just wished people would stop complaining about the ending. I´d rather have this ending, which is implausible but works in favour of the movie keeping the tension, than a boring and predictable one. Recommended!

Pretty damn good until the completely unnecessary twist ending. A real shame because Aja clearly has talent and an eye for the genre.

good movie but not great, compairing this film to À l'intérieur, Martyrs and frontier(s) is a big mistake. in other words watch it with no expectations

Movie goes from a 5 star horror movie to a 1 star movie as soon as we hit the awful twist. Too bad.

Ainda não sei se gosto ou desgosto da "reviravolta" na Estufa, mas que o filme tem milhares de maravilhosos momentos de tirar o fôlego, ah tem!

It worked as a horror/gore flick up until they tried to give the plot a "twist". Absolutely garbage-crap-terrible-shit-shameful-cliche ending.

The direction is stellar and so are its gory bits. The plot is what kills(no pun intended) the film's cool and it has an ending that just doesn't work.

Oh yes. Plot is shit but Aja has chops, and it's effective. It's good.

The final twist makes no sense, it's not plausible at all. It totally ruins a movie that was until then quite good.

Honestly this is the scariest and disturbing movie I've seen, yet a beautiful story, if you are into gore stuff, this is for you.

Tyler, you summed up my thoughts. I was expecting to like this very much but it didn't seem to have any story, lacked any type of tension, and the "twist" didn't even make sense if you go back and rewatch the film (the main character's actions aren't plausible given the twist). Yeah, the gore great, cool. But that's all that I got out of it.
