The scariest thing about The Women in Black is Daniel Radcliffe's eye brows. Well no, that's not strictly true but the film does lack a bit of 'oomph' in the frights department.
Bearing in mind it is a 12 certificate that is probably not that surprising and what is does, it does well, even if it's all slightly unremarkable.
I think a bit of a tip when casting a film with Mr. Radcliffe is to probably cast a few other roles around him with people of a similar age, as the middle aged 'ITV drama premier' cast here only accentuate the fact that he looks about 14 rather than the late twenties /thirty something he's meant to be playing. Just a thought.
