04/17/2012 Again Chaney plays the role of a man who has something physically wrong, this time broken legs. His character is complex and interesting though, and he's a great actor, so it works. The story is sort of predictable too, but it's very suspenseful. I really enjoyed this thrilling romantic crime drama. See more 03/02/2010 Fun little thriller, marred only by the all-too-convenient ending. See more 05/24/2009 another brilliant performance by Chaney. See more Read all reviews
