02/12/2012 Metaphorically this was all right, but I was hoping for a bit more substance-wise. Good use of music. See more 01/22/2012 Grateful someone could explain what the backstory was because it sure was not clear from the movie. Great acting. Believable, but odd, characters. Disappointing ending as it seemed for the most part plot and not character driven. See more 08/09/2009 Much better than it aught to be. Good, solid writing, great cast, interesting mysterious storyline. Not perfect, but a good way to spend 90 minutes. See more 01/25/2009 The book creeped me out a lot more, but this was still a pretty good adaptation & left me feeling disturbed at the end. Excellent performances from the whole cast. (Also re: the review that complains of unexplained plot elements, that's how the book works as far as i recall, read it in high school so it's been a few years ;).) And the mystery is a part of it, i like films that make me think, but i don't like so much to be left up to me either ;). See more 07/18/2008 I liked it more than i thort i would. Not to sound arty, but the characters were intriguing See more 07/14/2008 This harrowing portrayal of the dark side of human madness is unstructured at times and leaves numerous plot elements unexplained.
