A disappointing release of a disappointing movie.
Glen reviews the Blu-ray of David S Goyer’s The Unborn…
The further Casey investigates the matter, those helping her start to die.
Shes encouraged to seek out the help of Rabbi Sendak (Gary Oldman) to perform an exorcism.
Its not awful; its just not very good.
The premise, in principal, is decent it just hasnt been executed effectively.
Im not adverse to time being spent setting up the story, far from it.
Im just not a fan of rushed endings.
Gary Oldman andTheWiresIdris Elba provide the best performances despite being given limited screen time.
It also looks OK given its relatively modest budget, although some of the effects are a little weak.
The transfer to Blu-ray is respectable.
The picture is average, but there arent any noticeable faults.
The best moments are the aerial shots of the city, which are incredibly detailed.
The sound, however, isnt good at all.
ExtrasYou get the theatrical and uncut versions of the movie as well as a selection of deleted scenes.
Theres also the option to connect to BD Live, although this wasnt working at the time of review.
Certainly not an amazing array, but fitting given the overall quality of the movie.
