A grand time of things at the grandparents place?

The Visit is written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan. It stars Olivia DeJonge, Ed Oxenbould, Deanna Dunagan, Peter McRobbie and Kathryn Hahn.

Becca and Tyler have never met their grandparents, their mother left that family home in acrimonious circumstances. Now the kids are off to spend a few days with them – and get far more than they bargained for.

If you ask some people then they will say that Shyamalan never had form to begin with, so to them this doesn’t warrant being called some sort of return to form, what it does do is find him on sound footings. Veering away from big budgets and adopting a low-fi approach, this very much has him back in the spooky zone.

It’s all very nutty of course, the premise and the (very good) reveal are hardly genre defining, but the unease is palpable, the mystery element strong and there’s a bunch of genuinely freaky scenes. The last third is almost delirious as the story goes through its bad dream fairy tale throes, and the small cast are excellent, with Syamalan once again showing how good he works with young actors.

A good honest chiller that isn’t purporting to be anything other than that. 7/10

> You a film prodigy? You know, I used to be a pretty good actor.

You can see here the desperate Shyamalan Attempt to get back to his old glory days. But in the last ten years he’s not able to reach a decent success. Losing truth with big league actors and production house, so ended up doing movies with teens in his previous 3. So this one as well about two young siblings who goes to meet their grandparents from the rural. After the smooth first day the grandparents’ unusual behaviour begin to scare the kids. In an attempt to find the truth, what follows is a twist in the tale.

PG13 rated ‘found footage’ horror-thriller. But the story might be either real or fiction that never explains, because the boy in the movie wanted to do a project. Not that scary except in a couple of scenes. A better story, but the movie was okay type. The entire film revolves around four characters, but the two kids led from the front with their excellent act. It faired well at the box office, but honestly, I was slightly disappointed with everything from it.

Shyamalan is better than this, but he had a few chances to prove it that did not work out well as everyone expected. It’s only a matter of time to give an unexpected hit and turnover in his career, that’s what I’m looking for, but looks like not any time soon. I think this film was better than his recent ones that delivers within its limit, so I consider it is a one time watch film and nothing else.

6/10

Could have done without the rapping.
The big question on people’s mind seems to be, is The Visit a return to form for the once promising director, M. Night Shyamalan. The answer is yes and no. While the film is leaps and bounds better than his last 4 previous efforts which include: the dreadful After Earth, the boring Last Airbender, the inane The Happening and the disappointing Lady in the Water, it fails to be anything more than another entry in a long list of horror found footage films. Yes, M. Night Shyamalan has fallen far my friends, so much that just his name on the screen invokes laughter and groans from the audience. He has to fall back and rely on an overused horror genre to bring some sort of credit to his tarnished legacy.

His entry into the found footage genre is The Visit. What Jaws did for the water, The Visit might do for old people. When a mother of two young kids is contacted by her estranged parents, asking to finally see their grandkids, she decides to let her kids go live with their grandparents for the week, while she goes away on vacation. The kids are so excited that the film loving daughter decides to make a documentary about it. Bringing her trusted camera along for the ride, she captures some odd footage from her grandparents and weirder and weirder things start happening after 9:30. So we have to ask ourselves, what’s wrong with NaNa and Pop Pop???

The one thing this film does right is something that Shyamalan seems to do well or at least use to, is create a terrific atmosphere. The old home has just enough corners here and there to raise the tension, to make us as ourselves, “What’s behind the corner over there?” Having the film be a found footage picture, gives Shyamalan more control over the camera. He can choose what to reveal and when is trickier ways which put the characters in a bit more danger. One terrific sequence where Shyamalan is really at his best is when the kids decide to play Hide and Seek under the house. You expect the unexpected and Shyamalan delivers probably the best scene he’s done in years.

The grandparents are excellent; they convey just the right amount of oddness and sympathy. Each scene that they have alone with the kids is when they try to explain away the weirdness of the other. NaNa describes why Pop Pop does the things he does and vice versa. It was an interesting dynamic between the characters that immediately tells you that they are hiding something. Unfortunately, the same can’t really be said about the children. Two unbelievable kids, which means I did not believe anything they did was genuine. Whether it is rapping, yes the kid raps a lot, or the cinematic dialogue the girl uses. Nothing they said or did ring true to me, which took me out of the experience.

The Visit is creepy enough to warrant a watch for those that love the found footage films. It’s shot in a way that doesn’t lead to vertigo or nausea. You finally have a film where you get to see everything that happens on the screen, which was a nice change of pace. Shyamalan might not be back in the good graces of people, but The Visit is a decent start.

Horror & Humor: An Odd Combination
“The Visit” is easily one of the strangest movies I’ve ever watched. The reason? Think about this: When has a truly great horror movie ever made you laugh at the same time?

For a basic plot summary, “The Visit” sees children Becca (Olivia DeJonge) & Tyler (Ed Oxenbould) visiting their grandparents, Nana (Deanna Dunagan) & Pop-Pop (Peter McRobbie) for a week, having no previous contact with them due to a dispute with the children’s mother (Kathryn Hahn) long ago. When the siblings arrive on the old farmstead, however, they discover that Nana & Pop-Pop’s behavior is erratic (at best) and downright terrifying (at worst).

Clearly, “The Visit” advertises itself as a horror flick and that is the genre it most wants to identify with. However, when I think back on some of the best horror movies I can recall (Halloween, Saw, The Ring, etc.), one common denominator is that none of them contain any humor. That is where M. Night Shyamalan tries to shake things up…but with very mixed results. In between the scenes of the grandparents getting progressively stranger and stranger, the two kids are hamming it up the whole time and playing for laughs. To me, that really kept killing the tone of the film, as I never felt it sustained enough scary tension at prolonged intervals.

Of course, being a Shyamalan production, it does contain a twist ending that will legitimately throw you for a loop. Just like in some of his previous films (like “The Sixth Sense” or “Unbreakable”), a number of clues are in place for the perceptive viewer to maybe start piecing things together. Actually, though, where M. Night shines the most in this one is picking great child actors and getting wonderful performances out of them. There are times when their actions and situations can and will produce genuine laughter. Again, though, does that laughter have a place in a movie meant to be scary?

Overall, “The Visit” is one of the strangest movies I have ever seen. It goes for scares…but ends up delivering just as many (if not more) laughs. I saw it in a theater filled with young teens, and they seemed to love it. Perhaps that was the intended audience all along…the tone of the film just makes it so difficult to figure out. Those who like to invest a bit more thought or want to see a bit more sustained tension, however, will likely be disappointed.
