I was hesitant to watch the movie with all the low ratings it received by other reviewers, I'm glad that I didn't believe all the reviews.
The first 5 to 10 minutes of the movie is slow, but it moves quickly thereafter and reaches the climax shortly after.
My wife is not a huge movie goer, has very little patience, and movies generally can't keep her attentive for too long; but, this movie had her sitting at the edge of her seat.
This movie has very little talking throughout, as such, it would take an extraordinary actor to keep the audience engrossed. Halle Berry, in the lead role, does an amazing job by expressing her feelings through believable emotions. The movie takes place mainly in high-speed car sequences, that are well shot, highly effective, and kept an avid movie goer like myself, interested.
The movie is by far well worth watching, and deserves a rating of at least 7, but since so many gave it a low rating that it doesn't deserve -I will give it a 9.
This movie really goes to show... don't believe all of the reviews, sometimes you just have to watch it for yourself and decide! Cheers
