Orphan: WTF

Spoiler Alert! When I first saw the trailer for this movie I was excited. I absolutely love horror movies and from the trailer, Orphan directed by Jaume Collet-Serra, looked like a decent horror movie. But sadly if wasn't. It took a long time for the movie to really start, the first half was insanely boring. When Esther, played by Isabelle Fuhrman, began killing people the movie really began. The killing scenes were brutally awesome, the goriness made you squirm in your seat. As the story unraveled, you begin to wonder who or what Esther is and let me tell you that the twist is not what you expect. I would have love it if Esther turned out to be some ghost with a hunger for revenge but no. The tagline for this movie is "There's Something Wrong With Esther," however I disagree. I think the tagline should have been, "There's Something Wrong With Our Writer." Because the twist at the end is so sickining, it makes you want to throw up! Apparently, someone thought it would be a great idea if Esther turned out to be a 33 year old-midget-virgin-serial killer that pretends to be a child so that a nice family would adopt her. Then she would proceed to kill the entire family only to have sex with her father figure. With that said I gave the Orphan a 5/10. However, the young actress who played Esther, Isabelle Fuhrman done an amazing job for a 12 year old. With a talent like hers, she will go far in the acting world. Based on her acting alone, my rating is 8/10, but that is just based on her portraying a character so physcopathic and twisted as Esther. I also have to mention the cute little girl who played Max, Aryana Engineer. Out of all the character she is the one you want to survive Esther's madness.
