It could have moved a little faster in the beginning, but it turned out to be a good story. Worth watching.

We initially thought the preview gave away the whole story, but there were some twists we didn't expect which made it a good watch

This was good.  Unexpectedly, good.  Nice performances by the cast make an interesting (twisty) story even better.  At first I thought it was just going to be an indictment of our crooked broken medical system, but it turns into something more.

It starts out a little slow, but it is a pretty good story.  I was surprised and hesitant to watch it at first, but it wasn't bad.

A friend recommended this movie to me. I figured it would be another stupid, we ran out of ideas for movies deal. But to my surprise it was a pretty good retelling of a classic fairy tale. Not an earth shattering wow! but worth watching, and I'll be sure to watch again down the road.

It was not the love story I thought it would be, but the relationships and the historical recording they sought to write kept the length of the movie worth seeing.

Last night's bargain-rack movie was "The Kids Are All Right" on DVD. It concerned two women who lived together and had kids by the same male donor. Okay, it's a bit unusual but it could easily happen in this day and age. In any case, the kids discover their father and contact him, much to his surprise. A warm friendship develops between them and their biological father and between him and the two women and he ultimately has an affair with one. It's an interesting modern-day story and rather well done, and in good taste I might add. The acting is excellent. The directing is good. The story seems completely believable, although I dozed off toward the end. It's a worthwhile movie.

Though it was a good story and well acted with a seasoned and capable cast, it was not quite s good as it could have been.

At first  I thought it was a corney story, but as I read it, it turned out to be a very good story.

This is a good movie, but I have seen it after seeing the more recent (and really brilliant) Pan's Labyrinth, so it's hard to be objective and judge the Devil's Backbone on it's own merits. However, all the necessary elements are there (the story is interesting, main characters are introduced with enough care, the ghost and the sectrets arount it is getting reveiled as the movie goes on), so it's a good movie for people who like to watch drama with ghost/fantasy elements. I found it not as stylish and frightening as Others (some people obviously did, according to the reviews printed on the back of the DVD box), but it's definitely worth watching.

Well worth watching!  A little slow at times but the lulls have purpose.
