My brother and sister-in-law wanted to watch this movie because they like the actor. It plays like a made for TV movie. No surprise that it didn't make it into the theaters. The story was slow and confusing, and the ending was predictable. We called the ending less than half way through the movie. The previous reviewer who said the actor's speech was slurred and difficult to understand hit the nail on the head. So frustrating to sit through. We watched the whole movie despite our disappointment because we were hoping for a big payoff at the end and we were very let down. There are too many good and even mediocre movies out there to waste your time with this one. The only bright side is that now we can make fun of the movie tomorrow...
... View MoreThis movie got my attention because of the actor who plays the main character. I'm a big fan of Jon Togo so I thought it was worth a shot. I'm glad I decided to pick it up because my favorite kind of movie is the kind that keeps your heart racing and your mind guessing as well as your palms sweating. It had a perfect amount of mystery and twists, even the end surprised me. In a way I saw it coming but they made it original. It was worth watching and I'd watch it again. I think the male and female lead did a great job with their part. It must have been interesting to throw themselves into these characters. Overall, great film. Unique.
... View MoreIt is always very awkward doing a review on a movie based on a novel. The novel, or book will always take precedence. In this case, - well- this movie had me reeling from one minute to the next..Still very hard to explain that without giving the whole story or a spoiler. It is very well done and i like the fact that is not cheaply done in a one room or on stage production. (not that i don't like that in the right context) . Plenty of light and open air filming.The story about one mans fight within himself sort of sums this up. Well worth the watch if you have the time to absorb the story. If you are looking for- Action - not a lot here. More for the people looking to solve and absorb.
... View Morefirst of all, by claiming this movie was 'inspired by true event' is a total joke. and then, the screenplay writer(s), the director and the actor who play the twin brother role, all did unconvincing jobs, resulting this movie turned out to be a total mess. the actor who played the twin brothers got a very serious speaking problem. all the dialog he delivered sounded like his mouth got several marbles in it, there's no way to hear clearly what he said, every word, every sentence are just blurring, there's no way to quite understand what he's talking about. as to the movie itself, what a messy screenplay we got here. we did not know why the mother who bore these twins hated them so much, and why the father treated them like someone else sons. one evil and one good, but after seeing this pathetic movie, neither was good, and both were evil. then came the poor directing followed by the poorly crafted screenplay, the twin brothers were so confusing, sometimes you felt there's just one brother who got 'split personalities' problem; or there were indeed two look-alike brothers, both got mental problems, or one of them was serial killer. there were so many gray areas that confused the audience to the extreme. there were so many scenes that were totally unnecessary and purposeless. the whole movie simply turned weirder and weirder, more confusing as the movie continued. at first, there's some promising moment that this movie might be good and different from the usual movies in the similar genre, but in the end, just another ridiculous and messy crap that you carelessly ate up without knowing before it's too late. i strongly suggest that this actor who played the double images of the twin brothers go find some speaking specialist to adjust and correct his blurring speaking problem.
