    Disappointing
    This is supposed to be a movie that is full of suspense and mind control but it just doesn't make the mark. Christina Ricci comes off very cold. I think that she plays most of her roles in that way but in this she is also trying to portray mentally unstable and super paranoid and I just wasn't feeling her at all. Which is unfortunate because I have enjoyed her in so many things. I was expecting John Cusack to have a larger role and he ended up with maybe 5-10 minutes of screen time. He's been a bit iffy for me since I watched Cell. I only felt moments of intensity during the flashing scenes. I'm just a bit disappointed.

    FAQ1

    • What was the name of that song they kept playing throughout this movie? I'm usually good at "name that tune", but can't place this one. There are no soundtrack credits at the end, either.
