    I had high expectations for this one. Unfortunately, it was a little disappointing. Slow going though a decent twist at the end and some scary moments, but this gets a 5/10.

    Not as great as touted. Nauseating jerky filming. No real scares except with the occasional jolt of loud music. Not worth our time sitting there.

    It had some scary scenes which had the audience screaming. It also had a lot of comedy and had us laughing a lot. If you really want a scary thrill then go see it alone.

    I thought this movie was fantastic. The twist was great and even though some people I know expected the twist they only guess parts of it, and some say it didn't ruin the movie just made the final act stronger, scarier.

    I was kind of disappointed in that this movie was not as scary as I expected it to be given it was directed and written by M. Night. S. The trailer was scarier than the actual movie. The movie had some good scenes but not enough.

    Dreadfully unoriginal. We guessed very early on what the "twist" was so when the ending came we just groaned. I really wanted to like this movie but it was just plain bad. The leads were annoying know-it-all kids, the Blair Witchesque shaky camera and home movie concept has been done to death. The movie would've been better if not shot that way. And the rapping ...... !

    Found it boring except for last 10 minutes. Acting was fine. Too much of the kids talking into the camera, gets annoying. Even at the very end, the only violent stuff was poorly shown, just quick flashes. You have to presume who died. Waste of money.

    It was the best movie I've ever seen, very scary plot, not too many jump scares. I will be going to see this movie again!

    I've never been a fan of jiggly, unfocused camera angles, and "The Visit" is full of them. This movie does come together in the last 10 minutes, but the rest of it is pretty much a snoozer. Way too much silly, boring filler.
