    One of the most dull, vapid, and punishingly slow movies I've ever watched. Ignore the critics and dipshit audience reviews praising this movie. Nothing happens. Nothing. There are hints of what the movie means, but the end result is a boring mess with no clear storyline or coherent premise.

    Can't believe I'm saying this but this movie is too abstract. It really could have been great if it kept the style and retro feel but used some more traditional movie scenes. Instead it is a jumble of impossible to understand symbolism. 10 minutes into the movie and i was excited that i found a retro folk horror film. I thought it was going to be a real hidden gem. 1/4 of the way through the movie I found myself completely annoyed with how arty a vague it was. It never recovered and frankly I'm surprised I watched the entire thing.

    How did this get certified fresh? Boo. I couldn't even get through it. There was something interesting about it and definitely potential but by the time I turned it off, it was just so boring and lame, I didn't care.

    So painful to get thru. Boring, slow, not a horror movie.

    A movie pretending to be about something by using horror movie cinematic tropes in intentionally unintelligible ways. As the adage goes, if you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bs. Anyone who tells you they recommend this movie is also the kind of person that will say that an overturned opened bottle of ketchup with contents spilled over an old toupee is an amazing work of art. You know the type. Enys Men is worse than boring, it is increasingly irritating as it becomes clearer how much time you have wasted watching it and the movies shows no intention of getting any better, but rather doubles down on its pointlessness. As for all those making nominations for awards - again, you know the type.

    Terrible. All style, no substance.

    The haters of this movie clearly don't have enough patience to wait for their BFF's next text message on their phones, much less enough patience to actually enjoy the gorgeous cinematography of this film. And please, DON'T call me some artsy-fartsy elitist because I liked this film. Why don't you ask yourselves why you get bored so quickly? Do you actually have the attention span of a mosquito?

    In the main i loved this movie - atmospheric, intriguing, uncertain and disturbing it used all the cornish tropes of miners, tin, the sea , death, megaliths and something deeper and darker in the landscape. The last 10 minutes could have been shortened - but if you're happy to spend several days after the movie still trying to untangle what and why then this is for you - you'll be disappointed if you want gore and ghouls served up on a plate - for horror value this nods more towards the wickerman than nightmare on elm street

    makes eraserhead look and feel like Trainspotting and those of you who enjoyed the scenic visuals ,i could not watch the deliberately grainy ( it's 1973 after all) film without thinking of the crappy movies on USA cable in the 70's
