Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

areatw Interesting, yes. But for all the wrong reasons. 'Red Lights' is supposed to be a serious film about a pair of paranormal skeptics investigating a well-known psychic, but the sheer absurdity of the plot developments and ending make this movie impossible to take seriously.It starts off promisingly but becomes sillier and sillier as it goes along, ultimately descending into farce. You can't help but laugh, though that certainly wasn't the intention of the film-makers attempting to make a serious paranormal drama.There were some positive aspects, including some strong acting performances - impressive given the ludicrous material they were working with.

David Basford Having read some of the IMDb comments I approached the film expecting a bit of a let down. That did not happen. I think this is a wonderful film with some outstanding acting from several people ( not just Cillian, but Toby Jones, Sigourney Weaver, and Robert De Nero - even Joely Richardson has a big impact on the way the film feels; though a smaller part in the film - her level of sinister is great ).Some of the directing was a bit odd - several corridor scenes added to the 'weird/disturbing' theme but seemed disjointed and a little out of place.The ending was brilliant!A thoroughly enjoyable film. Glad I came across it and advise others to give it a watch.

Hala93 I think mostly every movie that people didn't understand it's rate is low . maybe your are right , movie should be easy but deep , listen people to your brain , let it go , think , believe , change in such movies .I really like it , it's full with brain storm , deep believing , strong emotions .And the special thing about this movie that it has no particular explanation, it's easily depend in you . totally like it , even i expect in the beginning of it another thing , but it was out of my expectation .Cillian murphy was amazing on this ..!

Jerghal A movie about paranormal activity with some big names attached to it should be on paper pretty decent. Guess what: it isn't. Weaver (no clue why she agreed to do it) plays a mentor to Murphy's character. They form a team that debunks paranormal phenomenon. The story tries to be clever but it feels utterly aimless and there are plenty of scenes that don't seem to serve any function. The editing is also a bit chaotic and messy and the film does take a long time to go to a certain resolution/point that ultimately feels like a letdown. This one can also be added to the long list of films in which De Niro serves as a big name to be added to the poster but where you actually wish they choose someone else because here he goes completely of the rails and comes off as an amateur who has no clue how to portray a convincing character. So not completely awful but also not recommended!
