    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      While she was eager to work with director Park Chan-wook, Nicole Kidman originally turned down her part because she wished to spend time with her kids and husband. However, director Park was so eager to have her play the part of Evelyn that he chose to place the setting in Nashville, near her residence. The house used in the film is placed five minutes from Kidman's home, which allowed her to begin filming just a week after she wrapped The Paperboy (2012).
    • Goofs
      (at around 57 mins) When India is pressing the number of Auntie Gin on her cellphone, she doesn't press the call button, but the end call button. In the next shot, her cellphone displays clock, not the dialing number.
    • Quotes

      India Stoker: He used to say, sometimes you need to do something bad to stop you from doing something worse.

    • Crazy credits
      The credits scroll from top to bottom of the screen, rather than bottom to top, like in most scrolling end credits. Most of the credit sections (except for the copyright legalese and organization/union logo sections) accordingly appear in reverse order from the standard credit scroll ordering.

    Nicely shot, well acted and utterly pointless
    I read many of the reviews on this site before deciding to watch this movie. And since I really like slow moving psychological thrillers I gave this move an honest chance. That should not be given.

    The movie is well shot, well acted, yet utterly uninteresting. The story does not build up in any straight direction, you never know what is real and what is not and there is just so much confusion in the storytelling that I never really knew where I was standing. I began to wonder if there would be some grand twist in the end, and was waiting for it through one pointless scene after the other, just to realize the ending could be seen a mile away and all that confusing storytelling really amounts to absolutely nothing.

    I would recommend this movie only to people who can sit through two hours of something they are not exactly sure whether it is what you are watching. Just terrible in my opinion. The entirety of the story could be summed up in 30 minutes and it would make for a wonderful short movie. But as it is - it is tedious and unrewarding.
