MOVIE OF THE MOMENT: Goodnight Mommy

Can you tell I like horror movies? Here we go with another one. I watched it with my family the other day and for the first time in my blog: WE HAVE A BAD REVIEW. Sad but true. Today we are reviewing "Goodinght Mommy".
This movie is another psychological horror film from Austria. 10-year-old twin brothers Lukas and Elias wait for the return of their mother from facial surgery. When she gets back, instead of a pleasent surprise, it's the complete opposite: her head completely swathed in bandages, it is apparent that something is not right, because now she is cold and cruel. For this reason, the boys become convinced that they are dealing with someone who is pretending to be her and they begin to think out of a plan to get their real mother back. This is where the horror begins. 
Unfortunetely, I must say: I fell asleep at the first half of the movie. The movie clearly tries to represent the routine environment that they live in their mansion and the cold relation between the mother and her sons, but this quickly becomes boring throughout the movie. The scenes are so silent, no music in the background, which in some point makes sense and adds a suspense to the movie, but later on you get sleepy. In conclusion, I saw around 30 min. of a 99 min. movie. 
How many stars do I give this movie? Sadly, I give "Goodnight Mommy" 3 stars. I know other people will like this kinds of movies, I do see that, but I need some action in a horror movie.
