Michael's Movie Grade: C+ A fun little suspense film that may not come close to being a classic but provides a fun time at the movies. If you are looking for characters with any depth or any clever plot twists, you are in the wrong place. However if you want pure action this is tha movie for you. As soon as the action in this movie gets going it does not stop. This movie doesn't give you time to think about how cliché or underdeveloped certain parts of the movie are. This works to the film's advantage as you don't think about the many faults but instead get invested in the fun. There is quite a bit of fun to be had here. The action scenes are tense and exciting. They truly keep you on the edge of your seat. The performances of the cast are excellent and they help make what is often a silly script into something you can take seriously enough to get involved in the suspense. Russel Crowe often steals the show with a really creepy performance. Meanwhile Caren Pistorius brings a sense of likability and pure panic that make you buy this story all the more. This is one of those movies that you enjoy while watching it, but after you leave you start to realize just how faulted and silly it is. -Michael J. Ruhland
