It's supposedly a horror movie, but without any physical representation of the entities, there were no jump scares. The dialogue was decent at the beginning (John Malkovich added some humor). After awhile it was painstaking to listen to Sandra Bullock's character yelling at the two kids. There was a lot unexplained, and so much of the movie could have been condensed in order to elaborate on the purpose of the creatures. Over-hyped movie, I was ultimately disappointed.
