Haunted Mansion

Ever since I went to Disneyworld for the first time as a little kid, I have have always had a keen affection for the Haunted Mansion ride. When I heard that Disney was going to put out a revamped movie about it, I was skeptical, yet eager to see it.

The story is mainly about a mother Gabbie (Rosario Dawson) and her son Travis(Chase Dillion) who move to a new (haunted) house which actually traps anyone who enters it and forces them to stay. They then try to recruit a motley cast to help come in and rid the house of the main evil ghost played by none other than Jared Leto.(He is perfect in creepy roles like this.)

The movie as a whole is pretty average with a few laughs and touching moments mixed in, but mainly it is full of cheesy lines and some truly mediocre acting. (I am speaking to you Tiffany Haddish.) I would recommend waiting to catch this one at home, especially with all the great movie choices out their right now.

6/10
