Review of Fear X

Fear X (2003)
6/10
yes it DOES have an ending!
2 February 2007
rented this movie cause blockbuster has a "special"> 3 for $5.99. anyway, the beginning was very brilliant. the brooding, grieving security guard was believably portrayed by john torturro. i could feel the grief driving him slowly insane. it was a very good portrayal of an introvert dealing with such a loss. the 1st hour or so i was riveted by his pain, but then something happened. i guess the director misplaced his notes or something but from the moment harry set foot in that sleazy hotel, the movie went soaring downhill. especially the part with the cops having their meeting to deal with peter killing harry's wife. peter was such a wuss! he wasn't believable as an assassin. too guilt ridden. but to me, this movie had an appropriate ending. he was dropped off at his car in the middle of no where, he tossed all those pics into the wind & then drove off into the sunset! he was finally free, he had revenge! he had an answer. what more of an ending was needed? the guy was a tortured soul & he was driving away to start fresh or become a serial cop killer. the end.
