This movie Trailer was one of those that shows you all the good parts and then when you actually watch it, its just mhe. the movie does not capture you as it should've ,I mean they want to bring in demons and the supernatural in then do some effort. but instead we got a movie that just sat there waiting for something big and nothing really happens.

This was an absolute dumpster fire of a film and it took me a moment to articulate my wtf reaction into actual words.

The plot is nothing original, persecuted witch, miraculous occurances that maybe aren't as miraculous as we think. its been done before. over and over and over. If someone is going to recycle this story, they need to do it better.

I'm not even going to go into how the girls accent changes between scenes or the super convenient explanations on obvious plot holes like why Alice can speak suspiciously well despite never having heard words spoken before. Both just add to the number of times you roll your eyes while suffering through this.

The CGI was terrible, and quite possibly the scariest part of it, but not because the imagery was frightening. I could have done up something better in my 1997 Adobe Illustrator class in high school. I failed that class by the way

This had the potential to be good but the problems were:

1. Casting. Morgan has already been in a relatively recent horror movie and this character wasn't all that different. Guys life is falling apart, young girl possessed by evil forces........see the pattern here? Also I think they made an error with the casting of Alice, it seemed so forced, I almost think the role should have been someone younger to be honest and there are far better actresses out there. It just looked like she was reciting lines, there was nothing behind the words.

2. Graphics. They were completely unnecessary for this movie. There didn't need to be any images of Mary in the sky or even the obvious CGI light reflection under the tree. It was too gimmicky and so poorly done that had my daughter walked in while I was watching this, even she woukd have rolled her eyes

4. The script. The dialogue was weak. It seemed hastily put together and a ton of religious cliches. There wasn't much in terms of suspense and Alice was irritating to listen to so there was no sort of investment in her character by the audience. I was rooting for the evil doll
