    Interesting Movie! Kept you guessing, but don't really see the twist coming. Would recommend it

    Started this one thinking I wasn't going to like it and after hearing Ryan Phillippe's pathetic attempt to capture a Dutch accent, was sure of it. Fortunately I stuck it out and got over the accent because this actually was a very good movie. Ignore his accent and just go with it. Worth it!

    Excellent but disturbing movie. Dunno what Cristen P's problem is with the accents. I thought they were just fine and I thought the acting was just outstanding. Maybe they should have just hired actual terrorists to be properly realistic.
