I gained absolutely nothing from this experience bar the knowledge that Natalie Dormer makes for an attractive goth. _Final rating:★½: - Boring/disappointing. Avoid if possible._

The Forest was certainly an interesting concept but was very poorly executed; riddled with unnecessary jump scares as well as simply being poorly directed the film just flops. The ending left much more to be desired as well. On the bright side, Natalie Dormer is some great eye candy.
