the orphanage

featured some really chilling stuff. cool story.
what impressed me the most is how it took a premise/plot devices that have been run into the ground and made it truly interesting and fresh.

The Astronaut's Wife.

This one had a very interesting premise right off from the beginning (sort of like the beginning from Species II), but soon fell away, especially towards the last 20-odd minutes.

Saying anything would give the plot away, but I ll say this...if the 2nd half was plotted better (instead of going The Brood or Rosemary's Baby's ways), this could have been an awesome thriller.

Among the cast, Depp is good in his usual self, but Theron disappoints. The supporting cast is strong, and the direction and cinematography are decent. Another good beginner falls out, because of the thin 2nd half and the weak ending.
