Wat mijn waardering voor deze film niet ten goede kwam, was dat een vriendin zei: 'Het was de engste, spannendste film die ik ooit heb gezien!' Nou, ik vond het niet de spannendste thriller die ze zei... of zelfs maar in de buurt komen. Aangezien ik meer had verwacht, was ik teleurgesteld.<br />Het enige interessante personage was de schurk, 'Carter Hayes', die goed gespeeld werd door Michael Keaton. Het probleem was dat hij niet zo vaak in de film voorkwam. Deze film had meer scènes met hem erin nodig, en minder van de twee andere belangrijke personages: 'Drake Goodman' (Matthew Modine) en 'Patty Palmer' (Melanie Griffith).<br />Dit begint veelbelovend, alsof het heel spannend wordt. Het had niet de impact die ik had verwacht. Over het geheel genomen: teleurstellend.
What hurt my rating in this movie was that friend said "It was the scariest, most suspenseful film I've ever seen!" Well, I didn't find this to be the tense thriller she said.....or even close. Since I expected more, I was disappointed.<br /><br />The only interesting character was the villain, "Carter Hayes," played nicely by Michael Keaton. The problem was he wasn't shown that much in the film. This movie needed more scenes with him in it, and less of the two other major characters: "Drake Goodman." (Matthew Modine) and "Patty Palmer" (Melanie Griffith).<br /><br />This starts off promising, as if it's going to be very suspenseful. Maybe it was Modine's unlikable character that turned me. Whatever it didn't have the impact I was expecting. Overall: disappointing.
