The hype ruined it for me
So I'm not a scary film fan in the slightest so I had to be assured this wouldn't make me jump (LOL). I did enjoy it found it was clever, but because of all the hype I already knew certain things were going to happen so that sucked a bit.
It's made brilliantly, it's so tense you cannot relax the entire film. It cannot have been easy to act blindfolded, not knowing your mark and where people are etc but once again, Sandra B nails it.
If I had stumbled onto it without hearing anything about it I think I would have found it a lot more enjoyable as I'd heard of so many key moments online etc..

Boring and predictable
I figured out the ending to this less than 30 minutes in, so this pretty much ruined the rest of the film for me. How can a film be so predictable? This has a great cast as well, but they're let down by a patchy and stilted script and a severe lack of character development for anyone other than Elizabeth Cree.

The cover is gorgeous, the blurb amazing, but the love triangle ruins it all.
I wanted to love this book. The plot and creativity was so well thought out that I read it in one day. I enjoyed the development of each character, except the main. She did not grow, she did not learn, and she was beyond indecisive/annoying and that for me ruined it.

I really wanted to give this five stars, it's my favorite of Austen's novels excepting Northanger Abbey, but the idea that Fanny was oh, so fortunately raised by those who would be her family, that her husband influenced her opinions, temper, and worldview is beyond creepy. I can get over the cousin aspect but the molding of the perfect wife very nearly ruined it for me.

i jumped into this series at book 3. not many important spoilers. but then i jumped from book 3 to this one. BAD idea. HUGE spoiler. it's kind of ruined the beginning of the series for me. instead of enjoying the storyline and going with the flow i'm analyzing character actions.
besides the disappointment of knowing too much, it was still entertaining, though not my favorite.
