Mirrors
This stars Kiefer Sutherland as Ben Carson, an ex-cop now working as a night watch man at a department store. The store was almost burnt to the ground recently and the mirrors within seem to harbour ghastly spirits. His family are drawn into the danger, raising the stakes and requiring Ben to put a stop to the sinister goings on.

Flicks, Team
flicksThe most frightening thing about Mirrors is that no-one stopped production half way through and said "hold on, the film we're making seems to be a load of old toss, shall we pack up and do something else?" This is as clichéd and tedious a horror flick as you’re likely to see, and there are scenes in it which are so poorly conceived, you find yourself embarrassed for the actors.
Variety
pressSoftcore horror at best, failed allegory at worst, Mirrors reflects little beyond Splat Pack auteur Alexandre Aja's desire to push his genre into less punishing and more profitable territory.
The New York Times
pressA minor chiller and major downer from the talented Alexandre Aja.
Los Angeles Times
pressAn empty enterprise that provides a few moments of goofy fun, Mirrors reflects back nothing.
Hollywood Reporter
pressThis remake of a South Korean movie ultimately provides fewer scares than the average aging baby boomer feels every time they look into a reflective surface.
