The Sting

All in all, a diverting entertainment that, unlike so much contemporary horror, is prepared to have a good time. Fun for all the family. Well, all the family over 16.

It's goofy and fun, [but] it isn't particularly scary... unless you're particularly scared of spiders.

Efficiently contained and creepy, the picture loses a little of its gruesome potency when it ventures into heartfelt family relationship territory.

It’s easily forgettable and doesn’t do much with its creature.
