There are better movies of two hours length. I loved the actress'performance.
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Before I eviscerate this giant bag of dumb, it's worth pointing out that Ryan Reynolds, Rosario Dawson, and Scott Speedman, give really good performances. Mireille Enos plays the same catatonic depressive that she plays in everything else. Actually, not worth the time to take this mess apart. They already got 1:50 of my time. That's more than they deserved. Cliff notes screed: stupid storyline, pointless chronologic leap frogging in time, TERRIBLE screenplay. Don't. Just don't.
Had potential but disjointed, poorly directed, with a rushed ending. Actors are fine; writer and director lost focus and pacing. As an aside, I despised the way Ryan Reynolds' character was treated by wife and detective; made zero sense.
I didn't like. Simple, I think should have more action and surprises. Good actors
I'm going defend this film, I've probably watched 4 films a week for the last 10 years so we get through a lot of dross and have gotten to know what movies are like that are rated below 6, this isn't one. OK, so the ending could have been better but it's not a complete let down and the rest of the movie is well acted. I think the key to it being poorly rated is because it's eerily frustrating to watch which is definitely the intention here, if you can appreciate that then you'll like it as we did. There are some creepy performances and it's a bit twisted in a way. All in all it should be rated somewhere between 7 and 7.5, solid but not amazing, worth a watch.
