The Others | Reviews
In drawing out his effects, Amenabar is a little too confident that style can substitute for substance. Full review (A) sturdily old-fashioned and tremendously enjoyable ghost story... Full review If The Others doesn't quite make sense, it does provide its share of sensations. Full review Clever as the film is... it turns out to be an exercise in narrative withholding more headache-provoking than suspense-laden. Full review Shrewdly cast, Kidman is pitch perfect. It's a clammy, ingenious film... Full review This simple, spare, and exhilaratingly old-fashioned haunted-house movie builds tension through a steady accumulation of mundane disturbances... which chip away at the psyche, onscreen and off.

Amenábar racks up the tension to unbearable levels in a spooky shocker that's worthy of any comparison with M. Night Shyamalan's The Sixth Sense.
