The Others, being one of my favorite movies of 2002, was a great thrill-ride that didn't scare me, yet left me with a sense of chills. The film was suspenseful without being scary and terrifying without being gory. I was pleasantly surprised by the film and I think that Nicole Kidman gives one of her best (if not her best performance). It is amazing how few characters and how little sets there are in this movie. I was very glad that this film reached box-office glory. It just goes to show that people still have decent tastes in movies (my faith in humanity has been restored). The few problems that I did have with this film was the father character. I didn't think that his character was developed or explained enough at all. On the other hand, I am glad that they did not dwell on his character as much as I thought that they would. The children in this movie also give surprisingly good performances (usually I can't stand child actors), but they were very good. A good and enjoyable film. 8/10.
