Let me tell you that I will give away nothing about the plot in this review and no spoilers will be included.
The movie is really a multi genre film. Thriller, Suspense, Horror but I would definately put it more into the mystery category.
The story is hard enough to explain but trust me see the movie and you will not regret it.
The acting is perfect, each character is played extremely well by their respective actors, Ray Liotta, John Cusack, Amanda Peet and many others really do make this a top notch movie and one that will keep you guessing right till the final credits.
I must also state that this movie involves one of the biggest twists that I have ever seen in a movie since the sixth sense or even the others. The twist is unforgettable and is enough of a reason to go out and see this amazingly written and directed edge-of-your-seat-thriller.
Let me finish by saying that I gave this movie a perfect 10, you cant beat it and for a genuine shock and thrill see this one because I know that you will enjoy it.
