April 3, 2009Utterly boring throughout, which is a shame because I feel a lot more could have been made from this storyline. I can?t really call this an anti-climax as that would suggest there a build up before hand.

October 25, 2008I started to watch this, and I almost fell asleep. Luckily I was able to return it for another movie that was much better.

August 8, 2007This wasn't as bad as I'd anticipated. Not a fan of Ms. Gellar, so that's always a bad sign, but she didn't suck in this. It was nice to see Peter O'Brien in a big role. Overall, not great, but it kept us entertained.

April 14, 2009That is how I felt at times. The movie moves at a snails pace. That was during the interesting parts. The story is pieced together as if a 3 year old tried to hammer together a 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle.

Gellar, who isn't bad with comedy, can't do drama, even in the chocolate-colored hair she wears this time. full review

Sarah Michelle Gellar may have ditched the Grudge franchise, but her predilection for illogical horror continues with The Return. full review

July 20, 2008Only 80 cheezy minutes of wasted time... lol. Don't buy or rent this. Steal, borrow or forget... movies under 90 mins usually suck, IMO... haha ;-)

July 1, 2007Not a fan of Gellar, especially in comatose roles of complete and utter boredom. This movie would have been good.. if it were completely different. This movie is NOT scary. Don't expect to be seeing a horror/thriller/suspense movie. It is a slow drawn out mystery that really is missing the mystery segment.

May 18, 2007«The return» est un film qui aurait du sur le plan esthétique être un peu plus stylisé. L'histoire comme telle est réfléchie mais il manque un « quelque chose ». J'ai été déçu par le visionnement. C'est donc pour cette raison que je donne 2 étoiles sur 5.
