    I´ve seen the (original) Japanese version a few months ago and this is one of the rare cases that i liked it better in the american version. Very good movie! This little girl has done some horror movies before and i have to say i wouldn´t choose it better to play her role!

    Eventhough the story is predictable, it keep your interested and entertained. This movie delivers some creepy moments, scares and tension.
    The acting is great, specially the girl who play ¨Lilith¨, good dialogue, not to mention the shock effects.
    Check this CASE!

    Saw it last night, and it was an excellent movie. Creepy and disturbing movie that keeps you on the edge. Worth watching.

    Pretty good in the way that I didn't expect the movie to be like this, the previews and trailers show you a very totally different idea of what the movie really is, totally shocked me at the middle of the movie.

    Zellweger is a social worker who takes on a seemingly sickly-cute...( read more) 10-year-old whose parents try to shove her in the cooker, only to discover Lillith (clue's in the name...) is a little monster.

    A couple of early scenes of child abuse (including the aforementioned oven shot) are promising although it's patently obvious early on that butter certainly would melt in her mouth.

    The Hangover's Bradley Cooper co-stars as Zellweger's love interest and a scene of hornets literally coming out of his ears is itchily effective, but the movie quickly becomes generic and silly, plodding to an anticlimax.

    It's hard to avoid comparisons with recently released Orphan, a movie that's similarly derivative and daft, but Case 39 doesn't even reach that movie's mediocre bar. Oh dear.

    Case 39 is directed by Christian Alvart, whose grim, gritty and painful thriller Antibodies showed at FrightFest a few years back ? this is an enormously disappointing follow up - where Antibodies is more similar in style, and indeed quality, to the excellent Millennium, Case 39 is barely woth opening.

    Donc, encore une histoire de gamin maléfique, une assistante sociale vient au secours d'un cas de fillette maltraitée par ses parents mais s'aperçoit ensuite que les parents sont pas forcément les fautifs. En tout cas c'est dommage, ça commençait pas mal mais ça bascule trop brut...( read more)alement, l'assistante joué par Renée Zellwegger s'apreçoit trop vite des "mauvais agissement" de la gamine et à partir de là, ça devient un peu n'importe quoi.

    Zellwegger n'a pas l'air toujours à l'aise dans son rôle et bien que Jodelle Ferland (la fille appelée Lillith dans le film) s'en sort très bien, elle n'est pas aidée par un scénario mal foutu et du coup même elle a l'air se surjouer un peu et c'est dommage parce qu'elle est douée. Après le réal a l'air en manque d'idée, ça pioche du côté de Freddy Krueger à Sadako en passant par tous les codes du p'tit enfant diabolique. Je dis pas que ce film mérite son sort (toujours pas sorti aux USA alors que le film date de 2006), mais dans le genre, Orphan a fait beaucoup mais alors beaucoup mieux. Allez le voir si vous êtes curieux sinon, bah sinon ça laissera pas un vide dans votre vie si vous le manquez ! J'espère que Pandorum est (du même Alvart) est mieux...
