I've never been more disappointed after an amazing opening Act.

I don't know what happened here. The first twenty minutes of this movie had me asking myself how I'd never heard of it, much less how it was not receiving an absurd amount of praise in the horror movie community. It was awesome.And then the rest of the movie happened. The middle was so boring, and almost as if it was written by a totally different person. The ending livened things up a bit but not nearly enough to rekindle the atmosphere and engrossing nature of the beginning.I give it a 5 because it wasn't awful. I'll probably never watch it again. Had the same passion been put into the entirity of the movie that was clearly placed into the beginning... I probably would have placed it into my top 10 in horror.

Stylish with a great opening scene, but that's about it

After you have a cold and brutal opening scene that looks really promising I was really interested to see where this movie is going. But a couple of minutes into the story and our main characters are leaving the remote monastery where the movie begins and after that the movie turns really slow and the only horror aspects consists of weird dreams and visions. The whole middle part of the movie was really slow and not particularly interesting.I really enjoyed the beginning because it was scary, tense and had a great atmosphere and I genuinely enjoy movies with a snowy setting. But that whole second act was just awful to be honest. There are some pacing issues and the movie really loses its momentum after the promising start.Then towards the third act the movie picks up the momentum again but still the payoff wasn't enough for it to make it a great horror movie.It is stylish and really well shot and I think this movie could have been a lot better. [5,0/10]

Solid

Deliver Us got a decent production, a good working cast and a fine visual quality, but, like other reviewers already stated, the script/story is way too predictable and can't provide something really new or too exciting to the genre of what I would brand supernatural horror with a religious theme. The end of the movie is also a rather weak one, at least in my opinion. What else? The level on the horror-o-meter is a mediocre one: a few scenes of gore don't provide more than just a little spicy flavor here and there but not much. Verdict: Deliver Us - solid and decent but somewhat meandering around the level "mediocrity", not bad, not too good either, but that's mostly because of the plot. Okay, if you like movies a la The Exorcism of Emily Rose, The Rite, End of Days (starring the mighty Schwarzenegger) also comes to mind. Last note: next time, just deliver us a lil' more and surprising evil ;)
