    6/10
    Kind of "Misery" - but with changed background
    Everything in movie was predictable, except one moment - which happened to be - unfinished in dead end street.

    - Scenario is lacking the deeper dialogs - because everything seems rushed - and shallow.

    - Then suddenly - the story began to look like the "Misery" - with locked hardly movable Delphine, with her injured leg - completely depend - of her younger "new friend" - in village house - with no people around - The "Misery" crawl out completely when Delphine ended up in bed, poisoned, and helpless, refused to surrender to her bully.

    - So the movie was not so original, and Misery was far better in creating story tense.

    - Actually the Misery part, should be the best one, but it came on 3/4 of the movie, probably seeing by Polanski as "peak" in story telling but it was to fast out - and leaved flat, leading imediately to end of the movie.

    - It's kind of shame - because the story could be less predictable, and be better filmed and screenplayed.
