Title: Don't believe the hype.
Review: hype is fine, i like a good bit of excitiment about going to see a movie, but gothika started with your typical cello/heartbeat/asmatic wheezing, and never really recovers from that terrible cliched start.a good movie, by present horror-flick standards, but not the deeply chilling or intelligent flim i was led to believe.also, i have a grudge against 'mad people' sterotypes, of which this flim abuses excessively.the style borrows from nakata (director of the origdional ring and dark water), but without his subtle atmospheric flare.rent if you have to, but don't buy.
