For the kids indeed.

Although I didn't expect much more from it. It's funny to read the early reactions of people who think they will actually be presented with a horror movie.

There's not much wrong with the title. An attractive house, lighting is nice, the settings are detailed. And the characters (Stamp) look okay too. It is therefore quite a shame that Murphy and his whole family are so out of place. Anyway, I thought the role seemed more written for Will Smith, but the black businessman with chic BMW just doesn't work in this colorful haunted house movie.

Not a huge fan of Murphy either, so I don't really recognize his demise in this movie. Don't usually find him funny. In the end, it's mainly about enjoying the sets and decoration, the level quickly drops when people come into the picture or stories are told.

1.5*

Fun for kids.

A simple comedy that is clearly aimed at a younger audience. A kind of mix between comedy, fantasy and horror. Not really interesting for adults, but I can imagine that children will enjoy this. I thought the best scene was the one with the singing statues, which made me laugh sincerely. Other than that, this film didn't have much to offer me, but it looked nice.
