Harockerce What a beautiful movie!

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Leoni Haney Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Kirpianuscus ...or, more direct, a huge dessapointment. visually seductive, it represents a sort of kilt for many influences. Kafka, Buzatti, Shutter Island/Das Cabinet des Dr. Calgari, The Road to Wellville. but nothing coherent. pieces in wind. huge ambitions but not direction. horror, fantaisy, gothic, policier, start as modern version of Dracula. and as result - the chaos. a lot of flaws. and ... an incoherent something. I saw this film with indulgence and a cup of enthusiasm. as noble promise. at its end, the dessapointment was complete. I discover it as a sort of quizz for lovers of classic literatture and films.in a hunting of influences. and nothing more.

joepu-82816 If you are a fan of classic British Hammer Horror genre then you'll like this film, it has all the ingredients of the best of the Hammer films i.e. creepy location, strange people, hostile villagers, a damsel in distress and a mad doctor. Without giving anything away the ending is also done in the classic Hammer style. There is nothing new or original about this film but it is very enjoyable and well acted and keeps you guessing for a while, it has good atmosphere and a stunning location.

Mike_Devine Gore Verbinski has demonstrated time and time again that he can deliver films that strike a chord with the general moviegoing audience. From the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' franchise to the original horror hit 'The Ring,' he's had an understanding of what will resonate and thrill many. In 'A Cure for Wellness,' Verbinski aims high but unfortunately misses the mark.'Wellness' starts out with an interesting premise - a young executive at a financial services firm must travel to a secluded, exclusive resort in the Swiss Alps to retrieve his company's CEO after it becomes impossible to reach him. Sure, this is mysterious and sets us up for what could be a pretty chilling series of events, but as many films tend to do, this one suffers from mediocre execution.What 'Wellness' has working for it is the picturesque scenery and beautiful cinematography. The thing is shot very well, and even the dreary, clinical interior shots within the "resort" are surprisingly cool. There are also plenty of unsettling things that transpire throughout the film, and while this is far from a traditional horror movie, it definitely has enough substance to play tricks on your mind. However, this is pretty much where the positives end.One of the biggest misses 'Wellness' has is with the execution of the story. The "twist" that is revealed in the climax can be seen from miles and miles away, even before subtle bread crumbs are dropped in the second act. This predictability distracts from the rest of the film, and it's hard to concentrate on each scene once this gets in your mind. There's also the hollow acting from Dane DeHaan - who proves once again that his wooden performance can take away from a film. To be fair, Mia Goth does not do much better. When weighing all of this together, it's clear that what could have been a great suspense effort actually collapses under its own weight.Verbinski should be encouraged to do more films in the vein of 'A Cure for Wellness,' but he should also learn from its shortcomings before doing so.
