High hopes quickly deflated, 16 March 2005
4/10
Author: mithrandir2-2 from United States

With such an impressive cast, I had high hopes that this movie would be an edge-of-your-seat thriller. But sadly it never reached its potential. The story was poorly written, with gaping plot holes, inane dialog and absurd characters. The directing was sophomoric, reminiscent of a music video or weak commercial, leaving me with the impression that a different director might have presented the writer's ideas more effectively. And the acting was mediocre at best, with the exception of Elwes, who was simply awful (I've been a fan of his since The Princess Bride, and it was his name that convinced me to rent the movie, so this was a huge disappointment--particularly on the heels of Saw, which truly was an edge-of-your-seat thriller).

I honestly can't recommend this movie to anyone, not even die hard fans of any of the cast. It's too much of a waste of time.
