it is a wonderfully constructed movie. beautifully shot, beautifully acted. and, especially as someone who has no interest in having kids, i was totally on board with the sleep deprivation subtext.

but it went from a pretty creepy, legitimately scary, will-she-won't-she vibe to a sub-standard monster movie and then just abruptly (and disappointingly) ended.

it's definitely not as good as everyone's saying just because the resolution is handled so lamely, but it's worth a watch just for the build up.
