About this movie

Starring Patrick Schwarzenegger, Miles Robbins, Sasha Lane, Hannah Marks, and Mary Stuart Masterson, DANIEL ISN'T REAL is the story of traumatized 8-year old Luke, who invents an imaginary friend named Daniel who leads them both into a world of fantasy and imagination. After Daniel tricks Luke into doing something terrible, Luke is forced to lock him away. Twelve years later, Luke brings Daniel back -- and he now appears as a charming, manipulative young man with a terrifying secret agenda. The film is directed by Adam Egypt Mortimer (Some Kind of Hate, Holidays) and based on the acclaimed book In This Way I Was Saved.

The movie is pretty good. The fact that Miles Robbins is in the movie is pretty cool since his dad Tim Robbins (Jacob's Ladder, Shawshank Redemption....etc.) was in a similar movie. Tim Robbins was going through insanity in Jacob's Ladder like Miles is in this movie. Also Daniel is played by Arnold Swarzenegger's son Patrick Swarzenegger.. But I have to say the movie was not scary at all. It wasn't suspenseful at all. It was just decently good. Watch if mental insanity is your thing.

It was an ok film I actually enjoyed it and liked it for the most part besides the cringey parts but it doesn't deserve 4 stars

I was expecting a bit more, but I was not disappointed. The director knows what he is doing
