I am glad that the trailer of the movie does not give away the whole plot! This movie has some twists and turns in it. Alan Rickman, as usual, does a fabulous job as the insensitive, egotistical professor Eli who wins the Nobel prize, who must go to Stockholm to collect his prize along with his wife, played by the excellent Mary Steenburgen, and his put upon son Barkley, played by Bryan Greenburg. Bill Pullman is the investigating detective. There are wonderful cameos by Danny DeVito and Eliza Duschku. This could be classified as a dark comedy. Definitely put it on your list to watch!

The intensity of the movie was lacking. The story itself was interesting but lacked that certain Umph which would have it more interesting. The choice of actors was poor.

This was not a very good movie, and no, I do not want to buy it.

The very first scene of this movie; someone cutting off someone's thumb was very disturbing. Did not see the rest of the movie.

Alan Rickman has done better, and there was a little too much gore and a too little believability.
