Negative Positive
Title: Well-made and suspenseful.
Review: I'm suprised The Lost Souls received as many terrible reviews as it did. I mean, this movie is signifcantly better than Stigmata, Bless the Child, and The Ninth Gate combined. It's well-acted, directed, and the script is passable enough to work. Most importantly, though, is the fact that I cared about Ben Chaplin's fate, and thus sympathized with him. Winona Ryder delivers an equally strong performance and though she's been getting a lot of criticism lately, I do believe she'll still remain one of Hollywood's top actresses. The Lost Souls is most definitely worth watching. It has a few good scares, fine performances, stylish direction, an intriguing story, and even better, an ending that does not cheat the viewer.
