I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The film has a certain style, starting with the opening titles and ending with "THE END" which puts the viewer on edge, but in a bad way.I've seen it twice now, but only because there was nothing else on.I find it creepy, but not in the horror film sense, but in the "Who's the guy with the beard that took over the motel from Ben" sense. Kind of a serial creep. Not creepy as in, Man! that's so creepy, but as in, Jeez, that guy is just creepy.It's got a crummy beat and it's hard to move to. I'd give it a 4, Dick.And one more thing: a TWO-WAY "mirror" is a hunk of glass. It's a ONE-WAY mirror.

It's one of those movies that, when you are clicking through 572 channels of useless brain numbing odd cooking, weird sporting, reality programming, infomercials, you suddenly land on a movie ... you watch for a few seconds and realize it's one you've seen 6 times already so you keep clicking, then land on THIS movie and you watch for a few seconds, and settle in and enjoy the whole darn thing because, even though it's a bit odd and melodramatic, i't's GOOD! And then you go on imdb and talk about how everyone dissing it is wrong because you just really enjoyed it.The next day you realize it was 2am and you always enjoy whatever you finally find to watch after clicking through 572 channels.But it isn't too bad. Nic is always entertaining if nothing else, and usually he adds something else.. oh ya, great acting because no matter how bad the movie is he always shines.I give it a 5 because when combing through bad movies to get through a few hours, this is a good bad movie to watch.

With most stories, we see a beginning, a middle and an ending. This one has a sort of beginning, a middle and really no ending. Ray (Nicolas Cage) and Maggie (Robin Tunney) buy a motel in the hope of starting a new beginning after the death of their child. The motel is a can of worms and we know this by things that happen for no apparent reason and we never know who did them: a dead pig in their pool, paint on the motel walls, comings and goings of really strange people.We see Ray work on fixing things around the motel, perhaps too many scenes with this going on, then he discovers a 2-way mirror and watches lesbians kiss, dominatrix scenes and the usual sex scenes. He is shocked, but looks anyway, but never stays for too long. We don't see anything erotic. Policeman Howard (Marc Blucas) keeps coming around and we feel he is looking at Ray as a person of interest in the murder of a girl some time ago when Ray came around looking at the possibility of buying the motel. The director could have fitted Howard with more of a form fitting shirt too. Very distracting, like 3-sizes too big. Ben (Bill Bolender) the previous owner of the motel is nowhere to be found to explain all the goings on at the motel. He just has had enough and got out and now it's Ray's problem.Some scenes are uncomfortable to watch, but that only lasts for a few minutes and we see there is nothing there. The ending is just cut short and this is where we should know everything that went on and why. Didn't happen.I am giving a somewhat spoiler alert because this is not a good movie, and actually, hardly any movie at all. Nicolas Cage needs to adjust and pick better scripts. Remember he just recently did a movie where the parents are out to kill their kids? Not good by any stretch. See? And now this one that goes nowhere. Strong advice: stay away. (1/10)Violence: Yes. Sex: Yes, one time. Nudity: No. Humor: No. Language: Yes. Rating: F
