The Lullaby Audience Reviews

ThiefHott Too much of everything
FeistyUpper If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
Verity Robins Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
beorhhouse Postpartum depression? Post Traumatic Rape Syndrome? Controlling mother syndrome? Haunted by the distant past? A combination of the four? In any case, whatever the girl's problem is-- the cinematography is fantastic! The pacing is excellent! The characters are all well-rounded and realistic. This is a Slasher film, if smart and sassy, so step into this one either able to deal with extreme horror or as a veteran of the same. This is a girl-leaves-home-gets-raped-by-redneck-has-baby-goes-back-home-kills-first-man-who-tries-to-rape-her kind of movie. Just so you know.
khaled-76646 It is a terrible movie. It is so boring you would be more interested in watching your hand's movement through the fluid that we call it air. It is so boring you wouldn't feel the time passing. Because it wouldn't pass you will be stuck in a time loop forever. If you're an atheist after watching this movie you'll definitely believe in a higher power that saved you from the time loop that is called the lullaby.Acting, terrible. Producing, terrible. Music, terrible. Directing, terrible.There are only 2 advantages of this film: 1- It is so boring the cinema would be empty after 15 minutes of this film, You'll feel like you own the place. 2- It is so bad you'd appreciate how good other movies are.
mjsreg I really don't know what happened with this film.The acting was brilliant, the production was polished and very visual, and the story was going along quite nicely - until the ending.Although the ending is understandable it is very much an anticlimax after all of the effort that has obviously gone into making this film.it seems as though there was some kind of attempt to shock the viewer with the conclusion to what had gone before. The problem is it is mundane and not shocking at all.
SashaDarko I thought it was going to be your average horror movie, but it's absolutely not. It's a very heavy drama which deals with such themes as horrors of the motherhood, mental illness and rape. All of this and a paranormal element on top of it which references genocide in concentration camps during Anglo-Boer War in 1901.The horror scenes are terrifying and very effective. The actors' performances are excellent and add a lot to the overall heavy atmosphere.
