Pretty boring

You’re going to think I am crazy for saying 9+ and 2 stars but I watched this when I was what, 7 or 8? and I didn’t like it. It was scary sometimes and boring all the other times. I made it through the whole movie (finally) when I was 8 or 9, but I wasn’t paying attention because it was SO BORING. UGH
