Two weird choices: Why is Magik racist? What's with the awkward forced accents?
Not as bad as I was expecting, just pretty boring. It takes about an hour for anything to start happening, and in that first hour they didn't even make me care about any of the characters. My favorite character is the puppet. I did like the Breakfast Club-esque scene when they drugged the doctor though.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A claustrophobic supernatural thriller where young people with emerging powers are trapped and forced to confront their darkest fears. It's part coming-of-age story, part horror-tinged action, taut and paranoid.
