I sincerely believe this movie has been under-rated. Instinct is one of the best movies I have ever seen. It invites people to meditate about the meaning of freedom and it forces them to travel inside their mind.
Anthony Hopkins is an extraordinary actor and the whole cast is superb. This movie is a gem, it's simply great!
