my thoughts...

It's a scary beyond belief serial killer thriller.

Not for the faint of heart.

This is a freaky movie. It has the usual R rated lexicon in terms of bad language. But the violence and scariness aspect of it is way up there. You will be on edge the whole time you’re watching it. (SPOILER ALERT) Nearly every character dies in a rather brutal fashion. You see all characters that die dead except for two (one who dies offscreen, and one who dies in an explosion). (END SPOILER ALERT) The ending is a shocker (well, some of it anyway) and they even went as far as to film multiple endings to shroud the real one in secrecy. Two alternate endings, I think. One is on the DVD copy I have, have not seen that. May update this review should I watch it. Don’t recommend this one for littler kids. Really good, but wait until 15+.

Surprisingly good movie! Wasn’t expecting the ending!

Common Sense Media calls this a “scary beyond belief serial killer thriller.” Let me just tell you, it’s not scary in the least. It might be a bit suspenseful cus you don’t know who is doing the killing but I can’t recall any “scary” moments. This movie has some strong language including a bunch of F words and talk of a woman being a hooker/slut/whore. It also has some violence (blood, not much gore) except it all looks outdated compared to modern movies so I didn’t find it disturbing at all. That being said, if you don’t mind a little blood and occasional cursing, this is a great movie that you can sit down and watch whenever since it’s only 1 hour and 30 mins so it doesn’t require some 2 or more hours.

Great movie, gory

I loved this movie, I watched it a few weeks ago with my mom after asking to watch a horror movie. I'm not very concerned about blood or gore, so that wasn't a huge issue for me, but there was a lot of gore so it probably would not be good for anyone under 14 or with a weak stomach. There are many clues throughout the movie that you need to pay attention to pick up on, so don't put this movie on for background noise. *SPOILERS* GORE: a severed head in a washing machine, a man with bloody handprints on his shirt and on the wall beside him, a woman with a very bloody neck gash, a baseball bat in someones throat (that creeped me out the most out of all the deaths), dead man in a freezer and gunshot wounds. SEX: One character was a sex worker, short clip showing her putting whip-cream on a guys chest, some talk I guess? LANGUAGE: Lots of cursing, s--t, f--k, m-----f---er, w---e, damn and hell were used.

Great thriller with a shock!

Families need to know that this amazing, well made thriller shouldn't be viewed by kids under the age of 14. The level of language, violent images and creepiness factor is all too high for kids under that age. The plot is intriguing and the way they executed it was clever and entertaining. The acting is good too, Cusack, peet, liotta, and De Mornay all do a fine job with their roles. The ending is kind of a shocker too, and I mean a SHOCKER. Which is great since I adore twist endings. Go see this with your kids that are 14 or older.

Loved it!

I loved this movie! It's brilliant! It's amazing how all the different people are pulled together at the end. I had to watch it again right after I finished it, because it explained a lot at the beginning. It was an excellent mystery. Not for the cute little ones or some with a weak stomach for a bloody mess or heads away from bodies. You'd only see the scene after the murder has been commited, so no stabbing or anything. There is a short five-second prostitute-in-action scene, but no nudity or chuminess. Language is pretty much normal for the twenty-first century. It's really a good movie and I'll be watching it often.

Identically awesome

DUDE!!! This is a VERY creative fantastic edge of your seat thrill ride! The swearing is much, and so is the pretty intense violence, but once you see the whole movie, you will be SHOCKED. just shocked. You will think about the WHOLE ENTIRE MOVIE. You will RE-THINK LIFE. ANd then you'll just LOVE the simplicity behind everything. VERY VERY good movie. Strongly recommend that you watch it.
