7/10
Not worth the rave
21 July 2004
i watched this after a recommendation, and after reviewing user comments on IMDb, although a little hesitant and skeptical, felt it would be worth a watch. My conclusion? a pretty mediocre film. although the dialogue was exceptional, the ending was pretty witty but a little disappointing. Throughout the film, the setting and mystery felt like it was leading the viewer to a more suspenseful and/or shocking ending, instead i sat there feeling cheated! My first impression was "Is that it??"

Having seen the Sixth Sense before viewing this film, i felt that it was a step back from Sixth Sense, although a Pure Fomality was done before it. Therefore the Sixth Sense surpasses everything that a Pure Formality is, with the exception of dialogue. If u want to watch a film about life and death without having the fuss of reading subtitles, watch the Sixth Sense; its more worthwhile!
