(at around 46 mins) The telephone booth and the restaurant where Amy makes her call are distinctively American in spite of the characters being in Belgium. See more »
I am a big fan of this genre, a genre that has been almost soaked of its originality, like most thriller i have watched, it didn't surpass the Bourne series but it was a series of clichés that was more comforting than worrying, Aaron Eckhart gives a very good performance as the lead character Ben Logan.
Liana Liberato gives a genuinely good performance as Eckharts estranged daughter Amy, who has been persuaded by Logan to leave her grandfathers custody in America in order to move to Belgium, to be with him.
The film starts off quite slow, but when the credits ran i was very happy with what i had witnessed, a good addition to the thriller genre.
