Reviews

TV Guide Magazine -
Surprisingly effective supernatural tale in which there's more to fear from the living than the dead.
|
|
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) -
Shutter has the look and feel of a proper J-horror film. Tokyo is seen as a series of gloomy gun metal skies. And the acting is more subdued than in Hollywood horror movies.

Boston Globe -
If Shutter is any indication, the reputation of professional photographers is still on the wane. Not only are photographs creepy, the film suggests, but so are photographers.
|
|
The A.V. Club -
The photography hook gives Shutter the potential to be a genuinely creepy ghosts-in-the-machine story like the original "Pulse," or better still, a horror twist on "Blowup." But one effective scene lit solely by a camera flash isn't enough to rescue this from the J-horror slushpile.

The Hollywood Reporter -
Genuine scares are few and far between, and the climactic explanation for the ghost's appearances comes as something less than a revelation.
