It's a long drawn out affair that may cause you to grab a pillow if you don't watch yourself. David Lynch's daughter definately doesn't follow in her fathers foot steps for this movie .

Read More I'm in total opposition of most of the other reviewers in that this is a thriller with an unusual twist at the end. If you don't like slasher movie e.g . hills have eyes,saw, then you shouldn't rent this genre. The violence was no more than the myriad of other movies in this genre. My only misunderstanding was what was the true nature of the agents ? without being a spoiler? Acting convinced me suspense was great plot was good as it kept me interested till the end. By the way there is another Surveillance 24/7 British movie. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||
0 out of 0 people found this review helpful This movie was okay. Nothing to write home about. I figured out the plot about 20 minutes into the movie. Predictable is probably the best word to use when describing this movie.WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

I almost turned it off immediately, because the beginning is very gory. It has a pretty good story line but that same sort of twisted mentality as NBK. I can't recommend it, because I don't actually like that style of movie, but I think it does it well. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More It seems that the minds of movie makers are truely in the minds of criminals. This thriller is fun and exciting, but it shows how far humans go in the torture of their fellow man. Good twist and the ending showed that they were not complete monsters. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More This movie is a grisly fairy-tale, Little Red Riding Hood with all the gory details of the wolf's attacks and his death by axe. The child is the key to the story. The violence is so exaggerated as to be a horrible parody. The line the male killer makes (who has no name by the way) at the end about the little girl is everything. A very dark comic parable. Don't take its over-the-top violence it seriously. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||
