    eh?
    what the hell was the point of this film.
    and why did they bother making it.

    Pretty bad, but it’s got this weird "how-did-this-get-made" atmosphere…
    …which made me kind of entranced by the movie. Nobody in it is very good, especially not K.D. Lang who probably couldn’t blink without overacting. Sing for us, please, just don’t try to act.

    Ashley doesn’t even really get naked, and Ewan farts around being schizophrenic and nervous for the whole movie.

    The cinematography is pretty decent, and the filmmakers at least had some kind of ambition for the film, even if they failed on almost every front.

    If you’re in a weird mood, you might find this one interesting. But buyer beware, you might wind up cursing God and tearing your eyes out. It’s your gamble, dude. Roll the dice.

    Don’t waste your money!
    This movie did NOT entertain. At the end, members of the audience loudly proclaims it as the worst movie they had every seen. The story is strange, but that is okay. The problem with the movie is that the story never develops. There are scenes scattered around the country of this technology geek following this murderess from city to city with his dead(?)daughter thrown in to remind us (as if we needed reminding) that he is not all there.

    The beginning held great promise as you watch our "hero" instantly destroy someone’s life from the confines of our hero’s home(?). But the promise is nevery fulfilled.

    The passing of time is not clear. Saving this woman from the police can hardly be called the act of a guardian angel. What he did to her "fiance" is as criminal as everything else in the movie.

    I would not recommend this movie unless you are a diehard Ashley Judd fan. She did the best with what she had to work with, which was not much by way of a script.

    Thank you for letting me vent.

    Hard to follow
    This was probably one of the hardest to follow movies I have seen in awhile. I felt like i had been in the theater for 3 hours when it finally ended. The ending was abrupt and everyone in the theater was rather offended they had wasted good money on this flick

    Very disappointing! Plot is too obtuse
    Ashley Judd was very good in her acting ability, but even this could not save this horrible movie. The story was poorly presented. There were so many questions that were left unanswered. The main characters were not developed. I was very disappointed and definitely do not recommend it. It is a shame that Ashley Judd would take part in such a movie.
