After the Dark (a.k.a.) The Philosophers

(Movie, 2013)

I love the premise, the twists, the puzzles. I find it cute to see Ginny Weasley, Rosie, and Norman Bates together. :) I'm just disturbed about the main protagonist (Sophie Lowe). All throughout the film, I see a young Blake Lively. I don't know if she's doing that on purpose or that if she's even aware of it. Ms. Lowe, Hollywood only needs one Blake Lively, quit it!  Lowe's performance here, just like the first time I saw Lively in the Sisterhood of Travelling Pants specifically the part where she's flirting with the soccer team coach, just gives me goosebumps! What's with the whispering Lowe? It's just lame. For a movie that gives you adrenaline, Lowe is like a buzzkill. Is that what they call "lazy acting"? Without Lowe in it, the movie would be sooo much better! 

Overall, the movie is good.
