Okay, so now fair warning, this is a minor-spoiler, but, I really wouldn't worry about that seeing as I'm going to preface it by recommending you don't watch _The Apparition_. In the 3rd act, there are some pretty cool scenes were things like ends up spliced through walls and such. Those parts were actually semi-cool. Everything else about _The Apparition_ is a big, stupid, boring mess. Final rating:★½: - Boring/disappointing. Avoid if possible.
