Here is my review on The Ward that will better explain my feelings -


WARNING THERE ARE SPOILERS THAT WILL RELATE TO BOTH MOVIES!!!

In Silent House I did find myself attached to the main character, what was happening, and how or if she was going to escape. But once the final act happened, the majority of the first parts collapsed just like in The Ward. What I thought was going to happen did even though I really hoped there would be more to it. It is like those LMN movies with the troubled, broken, divorced, etc. woman. And I just think that the movie will have more impact on women. Or maybe people that went through traumatic experiences when young.
