  2. fpatry

    Too cliched and predictable but entertaining

  3. Mari

    Sandra was good. The rest of the cast wasn’t.

    Sandra is outstanding!!!
    Too many people have seen too many crime shows and are jaded for plots, nuances, etc. That said, this was an incredibly well-done film with top performances by the actors, especially Sandra Bullock. Her pain from a previous experience was deeply moving. I had a daughter go through a roughly similar experience and Sandra displayed the characteristics right on target. This was a difficult film for me to watch. Very emotional, very on target with the display of personalities.

    Pretty Slow
    The concept of this movie would’ve been great and interesting for people who have a knack for forensics and detective work. Who wouldn’t be intrigued by a plot about an alomost perfect crime? But the story was slow-paced, and the clues aren’t really sophisticated. I think "The Bone Collector" is still a cut above it.

    Only for the extremely numerically challenged!
    If you’re waiting for a good thriller to come along; this isn’t it.

    She tried
    She tried I’ll give her that, Sandra Bullock is trying to shed her shell that most have labeled her with as an actress who can only play the gentle roll, but in this movie no one gave her the depth of character that she needed, this script was disjointed and odd more like something with 2 stories in it and no way to combine them. Sandra’s part was fun to watch but riddled with enigmas of identity, she could not fit very well in a mans world and that is sad because I really wanted her to kick butt, her emotions were misplaced and at times I felt they belonged in another movie, whats wrong with letting a women have power and show it without making her the butt of the joke, and what was with the story it was like a cross between rope and some teenage tripe like "Gossip" or "Cruel Intentions". On a side note I hear Sandra Bullock may play Wonder Women I just hope that who ever writes it realizes a women is more than her chest size.

    Sandra hasn’t been this good since ‘The Net’.
    Lately, over the past few years, Sandra Bullock has been somewhat of a disappointment to movie fans throughout the country (except for teenage girls). Ever since she starred in "Practical Magic", she’s been doing one bad movie after another.

    2 full hours of thrilling, nonstop mediocrity!

  11. luana

    This movie could of been better.
    The actors did not fit the part. Sandra Bulluck should stay in comedy films.It was a O’k movie. Worth renting only.
