 Re: The Apparition
It's very generic unsurprisingly. However, Ashley Greene is smokin' so if you watch it you'll get good eye candy.

 Re: The Apparition
It was released here into 50 theatres or so. It is available in good quality elsewhere I suppose, though.

 Re: The Apparition
Downright toxic. It lasts around 70 minutes without credits, but is still a long sit, and it is never even within a mile of frightening. I do wonder, though, how close the finished product is to the original intent. There are signs of condensing, simplification, and general interference throughout. The second half in particular is defined by disconnected moments and mile-wide gaps in logic and motivation. Even the conceit promoted in the trailer and on the poster (a supernatural antagonist which cannot cause harm if its victim does not believe in it) is nowhere to be found in the film itself. It is not hard to tell this went very, very wrong during production. At least Ashley Greene is gorgeous.

F And thankfully the filmmakers were well aware of that, so they have framed her in a lot of nice shots. And yes, there is basically nothing more positive to be said about this.
