Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Kiefer Sutherland anchors this supernatural thriller from Hills Have Eyes (2006) director Alexandra Aja about an abandoned building that harbors vengeful spirits. Sutherland brings a degree of his 24 intensity to his role as a disgraced police detective working a security detail at a derelict building. A package from a former security guard--who commits suicide in the film’s eerie opening moments--alerts Sutherland to the building’s tragic past, as well as to the presence of dark forces with the ability to harm the living; once aware of their presence, Sutherland and his family become their next target. Mirrors works best in its first third, where Joseph Nemec’s production design delivers maximum chills. Where the film stumbles is its rush to provide a slam-bang conclusion filled with CGI and other effects, resulting in an unsatisfying, open-ended conclusion that does much to dispel the film’s impressively Gothic atmosphere. The unrated DVD presentation differs from the theatrical cut by mere seconds, and the alternate ending included among the battery of deleted scenes is a more satisfying conclusion than the one used in the film. --Paul Gaita

5.0 out of 5 stars srorriM, February 20, 2009
By Desiree (Missouri, USA) - See all my reviews
This is probably not the most brilliant and original film, not to mention a couple of plot holes in it. I wasn't looking for the most brilliant and original story, and those minor holes imo were a way of leaving some things up to the viewer, for your own imagination. I'm really into creepy atmosphere and something that toys with the psyche and then leaves it up to me to figure some things out, suspense. This had all those elements. It's also an interesting storyline with a couple twists. There's really good acting, makeup and effects, and cinematography (not to mention I'm a Kiefer fan).
In my opinion it's 4.5 stars.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, January 14, 2009
By N. Durham "Big Evil" (Philadelphia, PA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
Ever since I caught wind of High Tension, anytime I see Alexandre Aja's name attached to something I look forward to it. His remake of Wes Craven's The Hills Have Eyes was genuinely terrifying, and his script for P2 had potential, even though that film as a whole just didn't work out well. Mirrors finds Aja helming another remake (this time of the 2003 South Korean film Into the Mirror), and stars Kiefer Sutherland as Ben Carson, an ex-cop trying to get back on his feet, and back into the good graces of his estranged wife (Paula Patton) while he stays with his sister (Amy Smart). Taking a job as a night watchman of a partially destroyed department store, Ben soon learns of an evil force that is inhabiting the mirrors, and jeopardizing the lives of his family and himself. Despite some genuinely shocking and gory moments (Amy Smart's scene in the bathtub is, and I just can't help the pun here, jaw-dropping), Mirrors as a whole is just too slow-moving and dull. Not to mention that the bevy of plot holes, leaps in logic, and Sutherland's somewhat annoying performance don't help matters much here either. Still though, Mirrors isn't a terrible horror flick my any stretch of the imagination, but it definitely doesn't do a director like Aja justice either. All in all, Mirrors is worth a look, but here's hoping that Aja rebounds from this otherwise disappointing horror flick.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mirror, mirror on the wall, December 11, 2008
Angela Carson: Mirrors are just glass and silver, Ben. That's it. There's nothing behind them.


Short Attention Span Summary (SASS):

1. Ex-cop Ben Carson (Keifer Sutherland) is forced by necessity to take a job as a night watchman at a Department Store that has been gutted by a major fire.
2. It doesn't take him 24 hours to find out that something's not quite right with his new job
3. Sure enough, he soon learns that the Department Store was once a totally different type of institution, and that the man who burned it down had also killed his own family. Strangely enough, the large mirrors in the building have all survived the destruction.
4. When the hallucinations start, Ben starts digging around, and discovers a clue - the word "esseker"
5. No prizes for guessing that something evil lurks in the mirror world, and soon Ben's family become targets.
6. It's up to Ben to find a way to save his family, and his time is almost up.

This is a creepy, gritty sort of horror flick that will have you thinking twice about looking into the mirror, even if you've never before been able to pass one by without checking yourself out. A bit of gore here and there adds to the drama, but the spine-tingling bits occur in the quieter moments. The ending however, isn't so much anticlimactic as understated. Recommended for folk who like to get their creep on.


Ben Carson: You gotta be careful of the water, it creates reflections!
