Shadow People Audience Reviews

Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
featherscoff I never rate anything 1 star, but this movie has got to be the worst movie ever. I would be embarrassed to be the directer of this movie. I saw it not too long ago, but I still can't remember anything about it because it was that bad. There is nothing else to say but I have to write 5 lines so... um... well... saw is a good movie I surest you hmm...
NotAnotherMovieCritic I have heard the scary stories of shadow people for quite a while now, so when I saw this movie I was very excited to delve right in. Unfortunately, I pretty disappointed.The film started out pretty well, giving us little glimpses of what was to come. However, the outcome wasn't presented well. The scares are far and few in between and only one is memorable.The writing and directing was good, even with the hidden messages throughout the film (the main reason I gave it a 4 instead of a 3). The acting, not so much. Sometimes it felt rehearsed and even in a few moments it was overacted, and to me this was a problem with the film. There were some interesting moments, but not enough to really keep my attention.My biggest problem with this film was a plot hole, and a pretty obvious one. I clicked on the "Contains Spoilers" box just in case, but I don't want to reveal anything if I can help it. All I will say is that the plot hole is with the film that they find, and the theory the doctor gives and how that it doesn't fit. To me that was the biggest downfall of this film.I didn't really enjoy it and probably wouldn't recommend it either.
mike-gordonm7 What was enjoyable about this movie for me was that the (HD?) camera work was clean and nicely composed, the direction and acting was entirely competent and the editing was cool too, in what I imagine was a film with a relatively modest budget. A pleasant change from average Hollywood. It was made by people with a real feeling for film. Mariah Bonner as the librarian was a bonus who definitely did not hurt the eyes. Shame she was an early victim.The story wasn't great, though it exploited common enough fears of things that are half-seen (or were they there at all?), and move in the night (as opposed to go bump in the night). And the placebo effect is undoubtedly real, though whether it's killed anyone is questionable, I'd say, certainly in Western cultures.I did once see a shadow person in bright daylight (or did I?). I was about three at the time, and lying in bed. The shadow of a figure ran across the wall, flowed into a shallow recess, slid behind a wardrobe, came out the other side, and vanished. It was more scary than Shadow People, and as you can tell, I haven't forgotten it. However, the good news (for anyone who's worried) is that it hasn't reappeared since, and 70+ years later I'm still here.
abs12-635-385997 In the mix of all poorly made movies out there these days this one deserves your attention. Shadow people is full of suspense moments and qualifies as a good mystery after all. Dallas Roberts was amazing in it. Solid storyline and clever filming. Definitely worth watching and makes you think about reality of the events and phenomenon of The Shadow People. Seems like they used some real facts in the movie which makes it even more desirable to watch. Shadow people hit its home run in all aspects - good acting, good writing, good directing and that kind of movie that will make you think about it after it's finished. Most of us had some kind of experience that we could relate to in this thriller.
