55% on Rotten Tomatoes


So what's the deal, which is closer? IMDb's 74% or RT's 55%?

Be constructive, I've not seen the movie, so don't just say it's crap or it's epic, tell me if it is a decent watch or not.

I think it's a solid character-driven thriller. More than decent. Give it a watch and form your own opinion about it :)

Let us know how you'll have liked it :)

Well, its not an action movie. It is a thriller about a killer being tracked by a detective. I enjoyed the way the main character's alter ego/conscious is portrayed, but some people might not like the slow pace of the film. I give it a 8 out of 10 cause of the storyline and Costner/Hurt's performance...

I for one really love this movie. It's not perfect, obviously, but I find it very unique. It's beautifully written and acted, I think, and takes an approach that I have rarely seen in other productions. Truly worth a watch, imho.

Definitely the IMDB rating, this movie was very good.

I liked this movie a lot and thought it was great. It reminds of the early seasons of Dexter.

I loved this film, an excellent psychological thriller. Very interesting, including the subplots. You'll probably like it.

I'd give it an 8/10 or 9/10
