More like a show than a movie with special effects that are brought back from 90s

The beginning of the movie was really good and interesting. The story opens nicely, the acting and editing are nice. Even though you've seen the trailer, and you assume what is going to happen, the movie is picturesque and like a fairy tale, really enjoyable and compelling. The first third of it, that is, and that part I'd rate quite highly, even 10/10.
The second part, sadly, is a transition into a teenage movie, with a quite predictable development and cheesy moments, but it's still ok. It could've been done without so many obvious and already seen elsewhere scenes. Liv Tyler was not convincing as a sheriff, she seemed more like a sleepy housewife with a really soft voice and basically zero authority in the town.
And then, the third part is a total fail. The story is ruined, too many flaws in the plot and a really disappointing ending.

Although predictable and generic, the atmosphere of the film keeps you hooked and rooting for Anna. This is probably due to the superb, and non-cliche'd, performance of Bel Powley.

Movie was great, loved the atmosphere and music. Really drawn in. I've got to say: the film was carried by Teenage girl 1 in the first library scene. Really set the tone for the whole movie!
