Long, introspective, indulgent cinema is certainly here to stay - let's try for something a little, well, better.

...A gem well hidden on video store shelves beneath artwork that makes it look like a quick cash-in on the success of What Lies Beneath.

Awesome flick. It's a shame it never got much publicity. A great psychological thriller. It had me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. I would highly recommend. I'm so glad I stumbled upon this movie.

Intriguing, but ultimately the director tries to be too clever and esoteric and the movie founders in its own self-indulgence. Had potential, but from the beginning there's too much mystery-for-the-sake-of-mystery, and sometimes clumsily done. Still, is interesting enough. Good performance by Jeff Daniels in the lead role. Supporting cast are okay.

The fun's in the ride...not the destination--Slowly and very quietly the tension is built in metaphors!!

A silly bit of nonsense that is supposed to be art house but ends up being outhouse. Jeff Daniels tries but he can't lift this out of the rubbish bin.
