Great idea for a story but script fell far short. So much more could have been made of it and the ending was dreadful. So much more could have unfolded. I can't stand movies that end and you are left wondering. It's a story, tell the whole story not three quarters of it and then run the credits! I've got two words.... Shawshank Redemption.....it had an ending! I'm sorry I bothered. I feel cheated.

This film had no redemptive quality what so ever. I was extremely disappointed with the result. I wanted far more than this film delivered. I suppose that is the gamble one takes with movies. You never know how things are going to end up. This one had great potential, but fell completely flat at the end.I was completely engaged in the storyline. I was drawn in by the growing complexity of the situation, and invested in the character's dilemma. My mind was actively engaged in plotting out several workable resolutions. There could have been a fantastic conclusion to this film, but the director took the most useless avenue to conclude the story. Movies should leave their audience with hope. This one left me wishing I'd never invested my time with it.

The label psychological thriller gets randomly thrown around whenever a new thriller film with a little slower pace comes up but generally speaking very few has that depth, acting, writing or direction worthy of say, the best films of say Hitchcock, David Mamet etc.This film however is a refreshing surprise and quite frankly pretty good, since the genre usually is very predictable. In this film themes like revenge, vengeance and pure vigilante actions are explored to the fullest and makes the viewer slightly unsure who is victim and who is the perpetrator.The whole film moves into grey area, and is lacerated with ambiguity and shows us how difficult revenge really can be. Justice at any cost can be quite costly.This is ensemble film were every actor does a great job, the script is pretty well written(it has twists and turns but very credible ones), direction is very good and the cinematography is wonderful.For those of you who liked Death and the Maiden (1994, House of Games (1987, Blackmail (1929), Shallow Grave (1994) etc, then this film should suit you pretty good. The rest can stay away.

This is a sharp and sexy thriller that had an awesome reception in Toronto. Cast is wicked. It's very tense and the music is excellent. Loved it.The Hollywood Reporter wrote rightly that it's a 'well-crafted thriller.' There's an excellent review there.I highly recommend this if you're into dark thrillers and like something a little more stylish. Also if you just love a good Australian accent- who doesn't?I will not give it away but if you get a chance check it out. It's the directors first feature and well done for a first. He scored some very hot actors for the film.
