I had it fairly low on my queue, but I was happily surprised. Halle Berry plays a great psychiatrist turned possible psycho. She is accuesed of murdering her husband in a moment that she herself cannot remember and her lawyer tells her that with the overwhelming evidence her only chance is to prove temporary insanity. She is haunted by an apparition that seems to be trying to tell her there is more to the story than meets the eye. Great twist toward the end, and the final moments leave everything open for a seque. Highly recommended!! Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More As someone before me said, I am also very bad at spotting upcoming twists and endings. This movie's ending could have been figured out by a child though...so that was a little disappointing. As for the plot, yeah you have to really suspend reality in order to enjoy it... the whole 'beaten up by a ghost' thing was just silly. However it was directed well, and it did feature some great acting on Ms. Berry's part. Although if you want to know just how talented she is you should rent Monster's Ball, it will really give you some respect for her abilities. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More Likable cast and characters are a good start to this film and with a half way decent plot that managed to get my attention makes this a successful movie. I was kinda taken back by how many scares and creepy scenes there was in this film and they were pulled off effectively. There were some parts of the movie that dragged to me especially near the end and the twist could have been done better. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More When I watched the previews didn't catch my interest, however I'm glad I didn't let that stop me from watching this movie. I did not expect the ending which I never could have predicted. This probably makes a better novel! Overall, not too bad! Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

I'm not sure what it was about because the plot didn't make any sense. Even Halle Berry couldn't salvage this one. Save yourself the trauma and watch Barney reruns instead.
