User Reviews

A good thrill ride!

Great movie, twists & turns to the end.

Great direction, acting and score, try and watch the unrated version rather than the cinema cut.

Lesson learnt for me is, not to listen to people, many said this movie is bad, but to me, it's fair from it.

Great suspense, great movie.
