4 Popcorns = You'll probably like it.
3 Popcorns = Go in the morning when there are cheaper ticket prices.
2 Popcorns = Maybe rent it.
1 Popcorn = Wait for a friend to rent it and watch it with them.

The Disappointments Room (2016)
Directed by: D.J. Caruso
Written by: D.J. Caruso & Wentworth Miller
Starring: Kate Beckinsale, Mel Raido, & Gerald McRaney
Dana (Beckinsale) and her family decide to move out to the country after a family tragedy. Being separated from the city, unfortunately, does not boost the mood of the family and actually creates more friction when Dana begins to become obsessed with the disappointments room that she finds in her new home's attic.
This film was a disappointment. I mainly saw it because I wanted to know what was in the room and when I found out, I was not too excited about it.
The film's location was beautiful. So there was nothing wrong with that. But some of the actors, that weren't the main characters, seemed not so great at acting...essentially the supporting characters were terrible actors.
Another issue I had with the film was the role of Ben, played by Lucas Till. Till seemed a little on the young side to portray the role given of the flirty handyman. His bad boy flintiness seemed like the ultimate failure and his character probably couldn't get anyone to sleep with him.
Also the story was a little confusing. The moral of the story that I came up with seemed different or completely lost on others. But if you see it, let me know what you think.
