I found the first 75% of the movie to be good, albeit lacking a little character development. The suspense was good and there were definitely moments where I jumped in my seat. Unfortunately the last 25% was a bit of a mess.

Pretty decent except for its reliance on jump scares...that ending was crap, feels like nothing got resolved.

amazing movie with good jumpscares and an eerie feeling that lasts throughout the entirety. The only reason it is not 10/10 is because of the ending.

I enjoyed parts of this and I enjoyed the main actress. It just fell abut flat like the concepts where good just not executed fully. Definitely not a horrible film just ok

"Sara and Jess not twins but are one singular person in a split personality. There are TONS of clues to this.

1) The hair color is an obvious choice. It plays a role later, but to tell the difference, we see two dramatic changes. Could just be cinematic ease, however it does play a role later.

The Forest was certainly an interesting concept but was very poorly executed; riddled with unnecessary jump scares as well as simply being poorly directed the film just flops. The ending left much more to be desired as well. On the bright side, Natalie Dormer is some great eye candy.

Cool story, but I think it would've worked better as a psychological movie instead of a horror movie.

The backbone of _The Forest’s_ conception is probably more fascinating than the horror film in which the narrative is based upon. Some may be familiar with the backstory of the “real” _Forest_ and its disturbing legendary reputation. Of course the reference is reserved for Japan’s Aokigahara More
