Robert De Niro and Dakota Fanning keep pulses pounding and hearts racing in this chilling horror hit about a troubled father and daughter tormented by someone â€" or something â€" named Charlie, a malevolent entity who may or may not be "imaginary" but is definitely the stuff nightmares are made of!Dakota Fanning--the elfin star of
Uptown Girls,
The Cat in the Hat, and
Man on Fire--trades in her blond locks for a semi-gothic brunette do in
Hide and Seek. Fanning plays Emily, a young girl whose mother commits suicide. To help Emily through the trauma, her father David (Robert DeNiro), a psychologist, takes her to an isolated house in upstate New Yo! rk. But instead of healing, Emily gets dark circles under her eyes, mutilates her favorite doll, and develops an imaginary friend named Charlie. In no time at all, things get spooky and David suspects this imaginary friend isn't so friendly.
Hide and Seek owes a lot to
The Shining, but whether the creepiness is borrowed or not, there's a decent dose of it (though the twist at the end is unlikely to surprise many viewers). DeNiro does his job with professional gloss, but Fanning carries the movie; she's got the kind of charisma that goes beyond acting ability--that ineffable glow that makes an audience want to watch her.
Hide and Seek also features Famke Janssen (
X-Men), Elisabeth Shue (
Leaving Las Vegas), and the ever-dependable Dylan Baker (
Happiness).
