Great little haunted house story with good performances, lots of fog, and tons of creepy, atmospheric dread - just how I like 'em. When it’s all over, a second viewing - or at least some heavy-duty hindsight - may be necessary to put everything in its place. Good stuff.

Nothing that interesting or remarkable about this one. Excruciatingly boring throughout and the twist wasn't worth watching the rest of the film. In fact the twist was pretty terrible. There's nothing technically wrong with this film, it's just not my thing and I never cared. The child actors were pretty good though.

I hadn't seen this in ten years and yet ALL of the suspense was gone. I'm not sure if that's a knock against the movie or a testament to the impression it left a decade ago. It was a fascinating watch knowing what was coming, yet not really being effected by it. One of the few movies I can think of that only has rewatch value from a technical standpoint. The other few that come to mind all star Robert Z'Dar (not really).

The twist isn't as surprising as you would hope, but it's completely fulfilling nonetheless. The acting is what I found to be so impressive in The Others. Across the board, all of the characters in the movie seemed to be portrayed in a believable way for the setting and time period as well as staying delightfully creepy at the same time. I really enjoyed The Others and recommend this to people who like horror but aren't interested in cheap scare tactics.

Very uneven. It begins promisingly and is superb until about the middle, where it just runs of steam and becomes a tepid affair. The ending twist almost saves it -I certainly didn't see it coming, but its resemblance to the ending of the "Sixth Sense" limited its effectiveness. Kidman is excellent.

Not really novel to equate ghosts with memory, but this one does it really well. For a ghost story, it's kind of funny that the most haunting aspect is the well of regret and repression that pools at its end.

This movie... surprised me. I can honestly say that the first time I watched it I had no idea where the plot was going. And once you watch it once, it really does warrant a second viewing at some later date. I am not generally a fan of horror/thrillers, but this is one of the few I would recommend.

Supremely effective chiller with a great mood and captivating plot. I'm pretty sure that at movies' end and upon finding out what's going on, there are some details that don't exactly add up in hindsight (the "rules" of this situation seem to have some holes in them), but this can be overlooked pretty easily because large portions do come together in the end and it's all so entertaining. Great film. The casting is just pitch perfect, every role's actor is picked and played impeccably.

I usually love the gothic horror aesthetic, but this one felt quite workmanlike, as if they were just trying to go through a checklist of things without giving them any meaning. Kidman gives her 100% (perhaps more) and the twist had the right idea, but it falls short.

Un beau film sur le pardon, et la rédemption. Une fois le puzzle résolu, tous les indices présentés jusque là étaient intelligemment placés, et jamais dénués de sens. Dommage que ce soit si peu rythmé, voire pas du tout. Kidman est remarquable dans le rôle de la mère, et celui de la veuve stricte.

This movie has everything what makes a good horror movie but it is the best I've ever seen because i believe a really good horror movie should haunt the viewer after seeing it and this movie not only does that perfectly, it also makes us question our casual knowledge and view of paranormal.

Mystical. Breathtaking. So few characters involved yet the film was able to surprise the viewers especially at the end. This shows that a movie need not employ thousands of actors to create a lasting impression. Spoiler: The earlier movie "Haunted" filmed in 1995 makes "The Others" a cheap copycat and beat the latter's romantic and cinematographic elements. My SCORING: 99-96=Great; 95-90=Very good; 89-85=Good; 84-80=So-so; 79-70=Boring; Below 70=Forget it.

More of a mystery than a horror movie in the same manner as *spoilers* The Sixth Sense. The production design is awesome, but unfortunately it's the type of movie where the majority of the runtime is dedicated to watching the character walk really slowly in the dark, then find something spooky and run for a minute as the music swells; rinse and repeat ad nauseum until the big reveal.

The Others is a pretty good horror movie. The plot of the movie keeps one on the edge of their seat. The story has some interesting twists to it. The main reveal of the movie wasn't a huge surprise but having seen the movie before might have also had something to do with that. I don't really remember the movie so I won't say with 100% certainty that the earlier viewing ruined the twist for me or not, but I did figure "it" out about halfway through the movie.

I find it hard to rate this one. While I'm aware of some of its faults I really, really enjoy this film. It's got suspense, subtlety, class, and great performances. It's not afraid to let the atmosphere take over and let the story unfold. The silence in this film is palpable and gives the movie it's own feel. Highly recommended, especially in a dark room.

I loved the film as a child, but seeing it now was kind of a let down. Kidman is over-acting, as usual, and the kids weren't very good either. Also, the film's not very subtle with revealing and explaining the mystery. Otherwise it's alright, especially in the beginning.

I suspect that the term "pleasant" is the least expected when used to describe a horror film .. But 'The Others' is a pleasant enough caper, but is SO slow and SO unscary that the only thing is has going for it is the twist at the end .... everything leads to that twist, and frankly, that is not good enough .. the journey to that point should be memorable in its own right, and unfortunately, it isnt.

I don't think that The Others is worth your time, as it has too many lulls that go on for far too long. It builds a solid atmosphere, but doesn't do much with it. It has good performances and is very simplistic, which works to its advantage, but I lost focus as it was playing. It almost redeems itself with some late-game plot twists, but sitting through over an hour and a half to get to them simply wasn't worth it for me, despite being very well-executed.

Above average, but not great. For the most part it was good at creating a creepy atmosphere. But it does go for a couple cheap jump-scares. The ending was pretty good. I was expecting a generic horror ending, but the ending they went with made it more interesting. It does drag in some parts. I thought the kids were excellent. Unfortunately, aside from one scene (when Nicole Kidman first hears the noises upstairs), I wasn't really that scared. Also I don't really get the point of the husband.

"The Others" is so well made it's hard to fault it too harshly. The fabled 'twist' is not that much of a shock, but it is effectively presented. That said for whatever reason it never quite reaches any real greatness? I did enjoy the way it was shot, with the house an atmospheric and haunting setting. I also thought it was brilliantly scored. Kidman's performance is an odd one though? At times brilliant and at other times very wooden! But overall an apprehensive and suspenseful horror.
