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.)

One of the most useful apps I’ve ever come across. I’ve used it for years and recommended it to all my friends. Even if I’m not the type to have to pee during movies often, being able to pull up the app and pass my phone to my mom/friend/grandma so that they know when to go to the bathroom has been invaluable. Because then I don’t have to summarize anything when they get back!!
