The acting and editing are amazing, the main female actor really holds the movie together, but my problems come with how poorly done some aspects of the movie are.
For one while I really loved the drama elements to this movie I can't say I was a big fan of the horror elements. It's not horribly delivered like Sinister was but it's unimpressive enough to not leave a lasting impact.
The ending ties it all together In a nice bow, however I did predict what it was by the 30 minute mark. Now whether that'll ruin your experience of the film is up to you, but for me I still enjoyed it nonetheless and I do recommend it overall.
