Very gripping! Although occasionally dificult to watch due to psychological thrills I found it difficult to look away. Both main parts were filled by powerful and enthusiastic actors. As the film goes on the viewer is wrenched from opinion to another and forced to make judgements about each character role without fully understanding who the people are or why they are doing what they are doing. Also the manor in which the film is shot is very modern and keeps up with the speed and intensity of the picture. The disadvantage is the slow start, however this later shows in the constant un-nerving of the viewer. This terrifying flick is a must for film lovers and people who enjoy gruesome, dark, psychological thrillers . Definately recommended.

Needs a bit more detail, and I agree with Soho_Black's comment re: DVD/film only. Gave you a 'helpful'. Cheers.

A decent start, although I see you've posted this as a DVD review, but you've not mentioned the DVD features. Are there any extras? If so, what are they and are they any good? If you add to this, or if you change it to be posted as a "Film Only" review, which can be done by accessing "edit review" above the review and changing the drop down menu under the "Which format are you reviewing?" question at the bottom, please let me know and I'll re-rate.
