Never Let Go - A un passo dal male

Alexandre Aya's "Never Let Go" is a serviceable horror film that offers a familiar blend of jump scares and haunted house tropes. While it doesn't break new ground, it delivers a solid performance from Halle Berry and a few tense moments.

The film is about a family trapped in their home, besieged by a mysterious, malevolent force. While the film does a decent job of building suspense and creating a claustrophobic atmosphere, it ultimately falls short of delivering anything truly original or terrifying.

Halle Berry delivers a solid performance as the determined mother, but the film's real strength lies in its depiction of the growing tension between the family members. The boys' fear and doubt slowly erode the trust and unity that once held them together, creating a palpable sense of dread.

Unfortunately, the film's pacing is a bit uneven, with some sequences feeling drawn-out and others moving too quickly. The climax, while tense, feels somewhat predictable and lacks the emotional impact it should.
