I really wanted to like The Turning. There were so many great aspects I should have loved it, but no. It was okay at best.
The stand-out feature of this movie was Finn Wolfhard. He was simply amazing. This kid can act. He shined in the movie It, and sparkled with a menacing force in The Turning. I was thinking to myself that he didn’t even need to open his mouth to get across his point. His face says it all. I really enjoyed watching him.
Another great aspect was the setting. I fell in love with the house and the grounds. I’m pretty sure that if I were faced with being a governess to these two children, I would totally deal with the horrors just to live in that house.

Other than those two awesome parts, it fell flat for me. I took my little granddaughter to see it with me — it was her 7th birthday — and she said she was ready for this. I took her in with trepidation, but she was a total trooper and only jumped twice.
Grade: C-
About The Peetimes: These 2 Peetimes will both work equally well.
There are no extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of The Turning. (What we mean by Anything Extra.)
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
Must have app if you love the movies
If you’re like me and enjoy a 92oz soda as part of the movie experience, you’ll be thankful for this app telling you the best times to go for a quick break. Whether that’s to refill your soda or recycle it.
Possibly an even better feature is the info on if the movie has after credits scenes. There’s nothing worse than sitting there reading about who the key grip was, then finding out that’s all you did. I blame Marvel for the stupid trend.
Seriously, I see a dozen movies a month and use this app every single time. Worth every Penny of the infinity coin thing I bought.
Developers note: the RunPee app is now, and always will be, 100% free. Donations are optional.
