This movie was awful.


Reminded me a bit of Eagle Eye.

It was just too over the top.

A 7.7? Really?

More like a 5...AT BEST.

Fincher's most underrated film, it's the very definition of underrated. It's well written, well directed, well acted - And yet it's Fincher's most forgotten work, usually overshadowed by his greater or lesser works.

i wouldn't say "this movie is awful", but i surely can't understand what's so great about this movie. it's just made of flicks, wouldn't impress a second time viewer, acting is not "that" good, conspicuously inflated but let's just stick to "suspension of disbelief"... well, what else? well, i think ending scene is the climax. the pointlessness couldn't be described better. i mean, who cares? what's there to relate to the viewer? whatever, i'm not saying i didn't enjoy it, but it's not a "great" movie. it's just a movie.

I watched this film yesterday after it was very highly recommended. About an hour in I started to feel like 'The Game' was on me, it was a trick to make me waste 2 hours of my life.

Ridiculous, nothing really happened, there was no suspense and no surprises. A complete waste of time.

yeah, i don't really think it's a movie for teen girls... you should really just continue exclusively watching movies/shows with your teenie bopper crush david boreanaz and leave the adult movies to the grown folks

Yeah, I thought it was pretty forgettable. It kept my interest for the most part on first viewing, but that was all. Nothing memorable about it.



I know what you're thinking: "Who cares?"

I really enjoyed. One of the best in his category.
