    Better than I was expecting it to be, it has some very intense moments and for the most part, it is interesting. There are a few lulls along the way though. The performances are fine.

    sometimes with movies you have never heard of you never know what you are going to get. This was a definate low budget movie, the story was good. It kept me interested, not on my favorite movie list or anything, but worth a watch.

    An edgy psychological thriller, this movie was a nice return to the days when directors didn't need to drop heavy handed clues and buckets of blood colored syrup to keep your attention. Would have given it 5-Stars, but sadly Christopher Lambert didn't say "There can be only one!" when he vanquished the villain. ..."Checkmate" would also have been acceptable.
