The Ruins

I have just watched the movie “The Ruins” last night. Actually, before I watched the movie, I got no clue on what the story is about, and I never heard that such movie was released (honestly). I was just curious because people who have watched the movie, before me, commented that the book (where it was gotten from) was not as scary as what the movie portrays it. Some also said that it wasn’t a good movie, and the book was much better. Others seem to like it, they say it was scary. Because of those comments, I came to see the movie myself. And what do I have to say? Hmmm, the sound effects were a bit scary (indeed), the story is okay, but it wasn’t really clear, so people who weren’t able to read the book might not understand the story. I’m one of those people who didn’t read the book, and seems to me, that the movie wasn’t really understandable. But, I do understand what the movie is about, but it’s not too detailed like other thriller movies.

The ending was okay, however it was predictable. I’m not a spoiler, so I won’t tell you that part. But the story is about any other thriller movies: a group of friends went to an unknown place because someone invited them to. Then, when they reached the place, things started to happen. There were weird villagers, who were armed. The group of friends were killed.... one by one ... by the plants. That’s it. No more stories. Watch the movie yourself! :D
