    This movie bored me to tears...it just dragged on slowly,,,,I cant say anything good about it. Did not keep me entertained. I stuck with it till the end hoping for a big pay off that never was,,,I would avoid this one.

    This has to be the worst titled movie I've ever seen. You know what "Hostage" is about from the title, but I have no idea what part of this movie is beyond suspicion. Why not call it "The Pretender"? Wait, that's taken by a TV show. I wouldn't call this a suspense movie, maybe a mysterious drama- there's a difference. IMDB.com lists the alternate title as "Auggie Rose", and while that doesn't peak your interest like "Beyond Suspicion", I think it works better. The movie is about Auggie, or someone pretending to be Auggie. The white DVD sleeve even has a little description: "Some secrets should be taken to the grave." There's no final shootout, no real good guy or bad guy fight, the only real "secret" is that this guy isn't Auggie- which you know in the first 2 minutes. Read the full description here on blockbuster.com and rent it if the movie sounds good, but don't the title too seriously.

    Unpredictable and intriguing. Wasn't the same ol', same ol' so I really enjoyed it. Always like watching Goldbloom act with that little kooky edge he has. Would highly recommend.
