Diagonaldi Very well executed

GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Tacticalin An absolute waste of money

Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

callanvass I watched this movie solely for Teresa Palmer's presence. I didn't really expect much going in other than a watchable thriller. I didn't even get that. It was technically watchable, but it lacks suspense and surprises. Oddly enough, the acting is fine. But there is absolutely nobody to root for, making this one somewhat of a murky and miserable experience. I don't mind thrillers that are derivative at all, as long as they are entertaining. You've seen this one all before and done much better. Let me start with the main problem, the characters. Palmer is by far the best thing about this movie. Her alluring, seductive, and amoral performance was the highlight for me. She was actually likable, which is more than I can say for anybody else. Travis Fimmel is actually very convincing as the crazed villain. He was just a bit too abrasive for my liking and didn't know when to simmer it down. It got to the point where it became OTT. He began to annoy me and it ruined the performance for me. Stephen Moyer plays his manipulative part well, but he's a major idiot. He is purportedly our hero, but he is arguably as flawed as the villains themselves. The ending made me wanna jump in the screen and strangle him. Speaking of the ending, I will give it some credit. The movie is just too unoriginal, slow, and unlikable for me to ever see again. It is worth a look, but nothing more. 5.2/10

kvatter I'd have to agree with Dave-zora's review on this one. I can only surmise that the very favorable reviewers were paid for their reviews. The plot is a re-hash of an old chestnut. Psycho invades home, holding innocent victim/s hostage. Psycho then proceeds to torture the victim's physically and emotionally for an hour or so, to kill time. Victim finally gets revenge. The only addition here is the victim is an agoraphobe so he can't escape from his house. The camera work is of the NYPD Blue "cameraman in a rocking boat" school of cinematography. Keep the camera swaying back and forth, up and down. All outdoor shots are heavily filtered to make even a bright day appear dark and depressive. The contrast and color have been manipulated to appear dark (high contrast, very little color). The actors are doing their best with what is an endless, pointless, insufferable script. The two stars are for their efforts.

tomshutter One of the reviews said this: "What is the definition of a gullible idiot? A: Anybody who buys the patronizingly glowing reviews posted above! In case you aren't aware, it has now become standard practice for individuals with a vested interest in low budget movies to talk them up on sites like this in the hope that the public will pay money to watch them at the cinema or on DVD.Ask yourself this: why would these people need to generate favorable publicity for a movie when a good movie will generate its own favorable publicity through word of mouth? The answer is obvious. " This is a movie review site. Why wouldn't you review a movie you like? Technically, the internet is the new word of mouth, same as texting.If you want a good film that is different than the Hollywood rip-offs, remakes,and abominations, look this one up. It's a good thriller.

Nick Damian Whileit was interesting, it was not tense or terrifying.Drama was a little on the slow side and mystery was not present.So what made this a good movie? I don't exactly know.I just know that it kept my attention and after watching 25 movies in 3 days that doing such a feat is hard.I guess it was steady pacing.Well that, a naked woman and a semi unique twist at the end...but I figured it out way before, still I enjoyed it.A few plot flaws,but I'm too tired to type them out now.It's a Saturday afternoon movie and it's not a waste of tie.
