enjoyable thriller, 11 June 1999
8/10
Author: Adrian Thacker (pseudospice@yahoo.com) from Calgary, Alberta, Canada

This was one of those films that I thought would be absolute cheese, you know, the kind that you watch laughing at all of the dumb characters and the stupid things that they do. Well, this wasn't one of them. I quite enjoyed this movie. All of the acting was done well, as was the script. I found no plot flaws (which is rare in thrillers nowadays), and the movie left me on the edge of my seat. I was squealing for the characters as I watched. I know that alot of people did not like this one, and I don't know why. It is not the best movie in the world, but if you watch this one with your expectations a little bit lower, you'll really enjoy it.
