1st iff it's not an oscar contender type film but most if those I cantcstand anyway, give me a Hitchcock over ANY biography anyday. Back to the film it's not a balks to the wall thriller or action film it's a decently paced suspense thriller and features an excellent small cast filmed in a beautiful location. I liked the story and I thought it had a great ending that I didnt guess. It's not a movie like seven ending but it's a solid 7 or 8 ending film!! Ignore the amateur critics and give this a chance stay till the end excellent pay off!!
