[film] Paranormal Activity
Oct. 13th, 2012 08:12 pmA really boring first half followed by a slightly better second half with a few made-you-jump moments.
What disturbed me about it was the general lack of respect the boyfriend shows for the girlfriend - endless mansplaining, saying he's "taking care of it" when she is adamant that this has happened to her before and she knows a thing or two; and refusing to get the camera out of her face when she is clearly extremely distressed and wants to be left alone.
Or, as Jason put it, "just adds to my theory that all day traders are dicks".
