Boobirt Stylish but barely mediocre overall
GazerRise Fantastic!
Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
jacobjohntaylor1 This is one of the scariest movies ever. It has a great story line. It also has great acting. It is a very good horror movie. It is better then A Nightmare on elm street. It is better then Friday the 13th part V a new beginning . It also a lot better then Halloween resurrection. It is a very scary movie.
satomimatsusima This movie was enjoyable for me. If you're a fan of Edgar Allen Poe's work. I'm sure you'll love this movie. In this movie, you can find his works "Tell-tale Heart", "the Cask of Amontillado", "the Pit and the Pendulum" and others. The scene that left the strongest impression is of a man who was killed by pendulum with a giant sword. His body was literally cut in two pieces. This was far-fetched, though. The most intriguing part is that the real criminals was not Edgar Allen Poe, yet a killer who always committed murders based on Poe's works. Therefore Poe was a always suspect. In the last scene, you will be surprised when you figure out who the criminal is. I rated it an 8 because I liked it very much but It is a little bit grotesque. I don't like these types of scenes so much. If you're a lover of grotesque, scary, or mystery movies, I bet you'll like it. I recommend you read some of his works before watching this movie because you will enjoy it more. The portrayal of Poe suits people's expectation, in my opinion.
joseluispala The raven Mystery This movie is the adaption the of the poem made by Edgar Allan Poe and they did a really good job. The mystery is every part of the movie. The work of the actors is good, in my point of view the work of John Cusack was amazing. The special effects for me it were not to good for me. I really like this movie but talking about Edgar Allan Poe this movie needed more blood and horror.
montse_mayen The movie is brilliant. The adaptation is very well done. It has good special effects and manages to have you intrigued all the time about what will happen.The Portrayal of Poe is absolutely fantastic; John Cusack did a fantastic job.The Reven went on the big screen on April 27, 2012, in the United States. Many people loved it but others did not because many expected it to be a horror movie.The Masque of the Red Death, The Cask of Amontillado and The Raven are Poe works that contain macabre and interesting stories. I read a little about them and I saw The Raven is one of the best works of Edgar Allan Poe.I love the movie and I recommend it. It has intense moments but honestly, you can't take your eyes off the screen because it keeps you guessing whats going to happen next. If you like mysteries, this movie if for you.
