Saw it Saturday and enjoyed it. I don't particularly like horror elements/jump scares, but it worked in the overall plot. Also very enjoyable on the big screen for gorgeous location shots of Venice and in the palazzo. Ah, to have a rooftop garden.
And that is what movie theatres are for! I was discussing this very point in another post about how, with the proper home theatre setup, the experience is good enough/just like/better than "going to the movies". Comforts of home aside, this is how movies are meant to be seen. Sorry for the tangential rant.
Yes, it is nice.
