Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Rated: 2/5 Aug 16, 2005 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...a surprisingly engaging and involving little thriller. Rated: 3/4 Feb 24, 2003 Full Review Ryan Cracknell Apollo Guide When I was young, I was taught to ignore people I didn't know or recognize. That's what I'd advise doing with this brainless film. Rated: 36/100 Sep 11, 2002 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Though sometimes implausible, it's a fun ride. Don't know who to trust at times, and Josh Lucas makes an ominous villain. Loved the ending. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member It's a total B movie. I should not have wasted my time. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member pretty good movie. keeps you guessing almost till the end. in 2016 phrase "-surfer with a cell phone.. that's kinda weird.." was especially funny.. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review flixster f Begins well as an intense thriller, and manages its twists and turns efficiently. But that lasts only for the first half or so. What began as an intense thriller then turns to a ridiculously mindless chasing flick. A nail biting thriller gives place to finger biting one. Utterly nonsense to recommend to. Yet, 1/10. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member I actually really enjoyed this movie. The intrigue is believable and the bad-guy is exactly who you hope he's not! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Worse than twilight. Worse than anything i've seen in my life. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
