Movie Review - THE MIRROR

3/28/2016

Another "found footage" type of movie, yay (I say this sarcastically). From IMDb - "Three intrepid flatmates who purchase the supposedly haunted antique on eBay and set up round the clock cameras in the hopes of capturing evidence of something going bump in the night." This movie was released in 2014, and I don't think it was new when it was released, meaning I am pretty sire there were several others like this when it came out. 

Three young people, two men and a woman, are trying to win a chance at a million dollars, and yet nothing much happens. The first 40 minutes of the movie are dull. All it involves is a mirror, a GoPro, a possibly haunted mirror, and the insanity of a young man walking around at night not knowing what he is doing. Again this was another dull movie about a haunted or possessed object, that infects those around it. Really, what it seems to do is make the two dudes and the girl depressed. Which I totally understand since they aren't doing anything but watching television, and watching a mirror, while videotaping everything. The shaky camera angles have already been overdone, especially by 2014, and there really isn't much new that can be done. 

These "flatmates" just wander around their flat, hoping to catch the mirror doing something, when of course it isn't the mirror that actually does anything, it's the mates who are infected by whatever the mirror is possessed by.

It goes round and round, and in reality it is just dull. The knife welding young man just gets annoying and it is so obvious by the end what is going to happen. Movies like this should try to be just a little less predictable.
