Just an unremarkable movie where the jump scenes are ineffective and metaphors are very literal. Lot of cliches , a young women possessed by a demon with her exorcism gone wrong, an ex-cop fighting her inner demons comes face to face with real a demon and the director kind of merges the two concepts but the result a very weak horror movie if you can even call it that. But you can see it once if you are curious and have nothing else to watch.

The two movies Vanishing on 7th Street and The Happening mostly sum up Bird Box. Yes it is not exactly Citizen Kane but not a bad movie as many reviewers are whining about. Though I think people don't appreciate the concept of loss of Free will and forced suicide which was evident from audience reactions of The Happening same it seems is true here. Still worth a look at least once, if you like post- apocalypse movies, is all I can say without dropping any spoilers.
