Average rating (Good Enough). Showing 1-7 of 7 member reviews.
3 stars (Good Enough) OK-ish, but ruined by plot and procedural inconsistencies. Some good dialogue and performances (Dickens, Coon) but its reach exceeds its grasp. ~HiFi
4 stars (Very Good) ~Anon
2 stars (Good Try) Failed to hold attention - too long - lightweight Affleck doesn't help. ~Tubbs
4 stars (Very Good) Gripping US thriller with as many twists & turns as a python. Rosamund Pike is outstanding and certainly has us guessing to the very end. ~Sandy
2 stars (Good Try) The plot would've made for good black comedy but never convinces as serious drama. Fine score and camerawork, but frantic editing rushes the story without reducing a swollen run-time. Pike, Coon, and Dickens are all strong - Affleck's just Affleck. ~fairbrother
4 stars (Very Good) It's like two movies in a row. The first one is a tight, tense thriller. The second movie builds off all the stuff set up in the first one, and goes wild. It's a ride. ~Sevenhead
4 stars (Very Good) I kept thinking "What next?!". Rosamund Pike is pure psycho. Ben Affleck good as the bewildered-under-seige husband. The ending was unnecessary, pointless and not credible. The movie should have ended ten minutes earlier, at the more credible ending. ~Square Eyes
