Opinions on 'Things Heard & Seen' are mixed, with viewers appreciating the film's mystery and character development, particularly the descent into madness of the husband. However, many felt the horror elements were lacking and the plot predictable. The intertwining of supernatural and psychological themes intrigued some, but others found the execution confusing and the ending unsatisfying. Amanda Seyfried's performance was a highlight, yet the portrayal of female characters as weak was criticized.
👍 Amanda Seyfried's standout performance
👎 Ending may feel unresolved and confusing

Yes I understand why it was widely criticized. This story was set up well to be a slow burn unfolding of supernatural and psychological terror. Instead we get what feels the director prompting AI to conclude her story in the most artistic and dramatic way possible. George riding his unpaid for boat into the dark hellion abyss turns into the portrait we’ve been seeing all along. There’s no real justice for Cath. Or any other woman who was murdered by their husbands in that house.
