Movie reviews of David Whitley

Thanks to Kristen Bell and Kathryn Hahn for saving the film. Review

Great visuals accompany this classic story that tries a little too hard to cater to fans of the original. Review

The best use of mustaches this side of the Mississippi. Review

I think the most beautiful thing about this film is the cinematography. Review

The rare “cops and criminals” thriller that really lives up to its own premise. Review

Incomprehensible madness that has no redeeming features if you aren’t obsessed with Gerard Butler’s menacing glare. Review

An excellent performance by the lead performer overcomes a terribly messy plot full of boring storylines. Review

Some of the highlights are the set design, the acting, the creature effects, as well as the story in general. Review

Sufficiently creepy at times, the movie gets bogged down in its exposition heavy backstory. Review

A terrible movie, despite the fact it features killer clowns. Review

Another found footage film that surprised me with just how effective it proved to be. Review

A familiar horror movie premise is turned on its head to devastating effect... Review

I hope nobody that is watching this movie is taking it seriously – 80s to the MAX! Review

Perfectly average, forgetting many of the things that made the original such a novel idea. Review

A smaller film that tries admirably with some decent small scale effects, but fails in its larger endeavors. Review

Creepy idea, fun effects, but absolutely dreadfully slow to the point that everything worthwhile seems to fall apart. Review

Excellent pacing, fun twists and turns, and terrific acting by the main villain. This thriller is definitely worth your time. Review

A delightful hidden gem that allows the director and actor to turn found footage on its head, while still providing enough disturbing moments to be considered horror. Review

You immediately feel uncomfortable from the very start in this movie and that’s done with the coloration and the sound track. Review

It’s suspenseful at times, boring at others, but tends to bring you back into the fold on more than one occasion. Review

Diving deep into the depths of friendship and addiction, this is a hard-hitting piece that runs a gamut of emotion and may be a touch too slow for some. Review

Engineered to be a tearjerker, it doesn’t quite land the emotional impact that it should due to a messy script, despite a solid performance from Toni Collette. Review

An excellent movie that allows a dark, bleak comedy to shine intelligently, with two famous actors sitting comfortably in their respective wheelhouses. Review

The movie industry again dumbs down what could have been an excellent movie. Review
