Many people seem to be reviewing this film from some kind of a partisan standpoint i.e. I like it cos I'm Christian or I hate it cos I'm secular/other. I'm a practicing Pagan who thinks that Christianity is hogwash but this film is definitely one I liked. A well made thriller with a solid plotline and some good performances, especially from the very young child actor. Some nicely done and not overused effects when the veil between the natural and the supernatural lifts add to the atmosphere making it enthralling, if not terribly scary.
Not a masterpiece by any stretch of the imagination but definitely a cut above your average supernatural thriller. Just one thing that amused me though: the "evil" books that the FBI agent has on his desk as reference works? I happen to own them both, make of that what you will. Still liked the movie though.
All in all, a solid 7/10 movie from me.
