A pretty obvious take on the famous Monkey's Paw storyline, but with a bit of Asian twist into it. Despite getting a very low rating on Rotten Tomatoes (about 19%), personally I quite enjoyed. Anyone who had knows the Monkey's Paw story would definitely know how it goes or how it may end, but the way the storyline was structured, and the way it kept the suspense and the hope of maybe someone surviving and keeping me on my toes, I'd say it actually did pretty well. In fact, there were some scenes that I totally did not expect the plot to go that way, and that's pretty refreshing.

Plot: A teenage girl discovers a box with magical powers, but those powers comes with a deadly price.
Starring: Joey King, Ki Hong Lee, Sydney Park, Shannon Purser, Sherilyn Fenn, Elisabeth Rohm & Ryan Phillippe
Going in, I already knew this movie was gonna be a hard one for me. lol Joey King's character is just so incredibly unlikeable and selfish so that right off the bat was a challenge. I get her character is still dealing with loss and school's hard for her, but to make the decisions she makes... At the point when it's quite clear that her wishes are killing people and she still does it anyway, I was done with her. Sorry to Joey since I'm actually rather cool with her as an actress but the script was doing her no favors. Now I gotta talk about how insane that cast is because wow, sooo many familiar faces in here! Pretty cool thing in an otherwise unpleasant watch. The kills are kinda insane as well if that's any consolation I guess but honestly, I was mostly annoyed and bored throughout. Not to mention, the very ending (mid-credits scene) had me fuming because it has one of the characters who was smart make a dumb decision. Now given there's plot context missing that makes it so that decision is possible but it's still annoying when you remember his stance the whole movie about Claire's wish-making. Anyway, this was a mess basically. lol
This movie is all about the girl who grant on her seven wishes using the old music box in which that Ancient Chinese Language details have. In every granted on her wishes the music box initiate to open in which is something happens. Unfortunately , the girl and the boy discovered something frightened and you will be regret it if you watched this kind of movie.
Lesson: Whatever happened if you are angry from someone and also the one that you'd been fall in love but he/she ignore you, "Be careful of what you wish for" . It could be probably danger to your love ones and you'd been regret it in the end of the day...
conflating diaspora jews with the actions of the israeli government is not okay, yes, but have you considered it's not okay to conflate israeli jews with them either
