Visions (2015)

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

People are voting emotionally.

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

And a titch or two above half-good. This tale of a spooky house harboring terrifying premonitions may not be anything all that new, but it's relatively well acted and the California wine vineyard aesthetic is competently captured. Furthermore, it bears mention that lead Isla Fisher rocks a revealing '70's retro look in a couple scenes here with stunning savoir-faire.Strut on, girl.

Eveleigh (Isla Fisher) Was in a car accident and got a nasty bump on the head and killed an infant. It wasn't her fault, or so everyone claims. Her husband David (Anson Mount) manages to get own vineyard and her pregnant. The neighbors feel like something out of ROSEMARY'S BABY. She thinks the neighbor is producing meth, but he claims it is medicinal olive oil, something my aromatherapist swears by. The old house also has a history. Eveleigh has visions and hears things too which they didn't work into the title. This starts off as your typical boring poltergeist haunting and then at 54 minutes into the film, when you have your first death, things get interesting.Cast includes Eva Longoria, Jim Parsons and Gillian Jacobs.Guide: No f-bombs. Brief sex. No nudity.

Everyone is so quiet and soft-spoken throughout the movie, but whenever there's a jump-scare (and there's lots of them) they are so loud they make you jump out of your seat. I couldn't watch this in the end without deafening myself and waking the neighbours because I had to turn the volume up high to hear the cast speaking and then the speakers would get blasted out by bangs and screams. I like jump scares but this was just annoying.

From a couple of Avid Film and TV watchers, I've got to say, Out of all the films and Christmas TV we have both watched over the festive period, This has got to be the viewing highlight for both of us, It has provided suspense , intrigue and had us both drawn in from the beginning up to a cracking end.If like us you are not one of those "Oh I went to Uni and got a Degree in Media Studies, and I know lighting,script writing,ETC" and all that upper class B.S, But an ordinary film enjoy-er, then fill your boot's, forget the world kick off you're shoes have a couple of Beer's and see the film for what it really is a bit of well done entertainment.
