Full Review Page

The Little Stranger is being marketed as a horror movie, but it is definitely not. There are some tense moments, but this is a 1940's drama. The acting is great, minus Domhnall Gleeson (I'm not how much of his character s supposed to be wooden and how much is bland acting). The cinematography is fine, but uninteresting. Had I known what this film was beforehand, there is no way I would have seen it. A doctor visits a patient at a historic estate he fell in love with decades ago and befriends the daughter of the owner and things go wrong. There is a good amount of tension in a handful of scenes, but The Little Stranger is primarily a very slow, plodding film that drags and drags. The Little Stranger isn't a bad film, but it needed a better editor and more honest trailers.
