The Woman In Black

The Woman In Black takes places in a "remote village" dated around the late 1800's. Where a young lawyer by the name of Arthur Kipps played by Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) has to venture to in order to make sure the law firm truly has the last will and testament from recent owner of the home in the marsh. It's not long before this easy task turns out to be not so easy after all. Now that you have the basics of the story let me tell you what this really is, this movie was an attempt for Daniel Radcliffe to break away from his role as Harry Potter. Epic Fail. He still finds himself in always dark town, that always seem wet, or on a train traveling through the countryside of London reading a newspaper (sounds familiar?) The only thing missing was the people moving in the paper. You will jump more than a few times, I'll give it that, in fact the film was OK at best. For this to be one of Director James Watkins films you kind of get what you paid for. James is known for his films Eden Lake and The Decent part 2. Besides the film has a PG-13 rating so you weren't going to get much out of it anyway.

I grade this film: RENT IT
