All reviews by user Date ![]() Helpful Rating 12 out of 44 users found this helpful Posted: 1/12/2005A review of Hide and Seek by Conrad230 I'm just reviewing on the preview, I havent seen this movie, but I think that this may turn out to be another 'Darkness' or 'White Noise'. Yes, Robert De Niro is great, and the little girl is cute, but the story looks like a cop off of some other horror movies. The little kid drawing dead people is getting a little old now, it worked for chill factors in 'The Sixth Sense', but now it's just like beating a dead horse. Then again, it could be good. The preview sparked enough interest for me to want to see it, but I'm not going into this movie with extremely high expectations. Was this review helpful?

When I got to the menu, my enthusiasm was already ebbing. I don't know what it was, but the banter between the characters seemed like a knockoff of the first Shrek. And this was just the MENU. So when the movie started playing, opening with the honeymoon, I sat there, chuckling here and there, and waiting for something to happen. That waiting went on for HALF AN HOUR. Sure, there were some cute parts. There were parts that were actually funny. Like gold nuggets. One here, one there. Leading up to one HUGE chunk. But that one huge chunk never came. The movie seemed to lead up to something the entire time, and in the end just kinda burped out a resolution. There are some good parts, like when Puss in Boots showed up, or Pinocios nose in the dungeon scene, or the Ugly Stepsister. But the FEEL wasn't there. You might like this movie, maybe I'm just crazy. But I don't recomend it. Please don't hate me for expressing my opion. Was this review helpful?

I am a big fan of both Stiller and Black, but I really dont know what they were thinking when they signed on to make this movie. The acting was ok, but the script was HORRIBLE. I didn't laugh the entire movie, and I just sat there, fidgeting, wondering when it was going to end. Maybe if Black had more screen time it would have been funny. Maybe. But Stiller plays out his dry perfomance the entire time, praying to God that we'll laugh. Nope. Sorry Ben, but God doesn't mess with free will. Like the whole horse thing. You killed his horse? Ok....So now what? What? Put it on your car and find someplace to dump it and hope people dont notice? That might be funny. Oh wait. Nobody notices anything funny about it. Just tell them its a sofa. Ha- wait, that wasn't funny. It fell off? Oops. You're going to moan about it? Ok... And thats how the entire movie moves. Its a good thing that the Vapoorise wasn't pointed at the camera.
