The Surrender

I loved this movie. I thought it was a goodmovie . Not your typical horror film. Refreshing.

I don't understand all of the good reviews. It was literally just a mother and daughter fighting for the first two-thirds of the movie. Neither character was at all likeable so it was just really boring. Further, I understand the underlying premise that a grieving person would do anything to get their loved one back. But what's the point of bringing someone back into a cancer-ridden body that they can't survive in?

Not a typical horror, but death in relation to family and familial relationships is terrifying in its own way. I dont think the movie needed such obvious horror tropes to tell its story. Grief and the stages of grief while also dealing with someone else's irrational method of dealing with grief would have been enough to tell a very haunting, sad, and sometimes scary story and would have benefited from more nuanced interactions between mother, father, and daughter. . still, it's a good movie.

It was okei. First boring middle its good and end not so good.
