    Underrated

    I was surprised to see this on the bottom 100 list, it was no way near that bad. I know that Paris Hilton is in it but you can tell from her performance in House of Wax that she can actually act, she should be seen as a proper actress for some roles. I mean nobody criticises Robert De Niro for Little Fockers because he has starred in films like Taxi Driver.

    Anyway, this film had quite a few plot twists that I didn't expect and the end result was pretty satisfying. It is designed for a certain type of audience but I for one really enjoyed it. I would even go as far to say that it is in my top 10 favourite films. Really, try this film or you will definitely regret it. Subtle, yet brilliant.
