I saw this movie in a free screening and wanted my time back. It was simply a cheap teen remake of the classic Hitchcock film Rear Window, only instead of being suspenseful, it's just plain boring. I'm disappointed to see Shia do this since his career was building positively until now, and Spielberg Exec. Producing it makes me want to cry. The only reason I give it 3 out of ten is because the best friend had some funny parts. 3 out of ten is a gift. Unless you consider a half hour of "oh no, he's behind the corner" to be a "thrilling climactic scene", then avoid this movie at all costs. Rent Rear Window, it's the good version of this story.

This movie sucked.

I bought this movie and I AM going to complain about the six dollars I spent on it. I expected a bad movie, with a young Jim Carrey and Allen Thicke in an unknown movie, how could I not. But this was horrible. It wasn't a movie at all. It was just a promotional video for club med. The sound was awful, they turned Carrey into the least funny person on the planet (and I think he's hilarious)...it was worse than Rubberface!!! (Which goes on my worst ten short films ever made). Don't see it, whatever you do. It's too bad to even make fun of. I'm glad Carrey got famous or else he might still be doing this stuff. At least he didn't do Son of the Mask though.
