Stirs up a lot of expectations, which are not fulfilled entirely.

Rating: Null/10 (14 July 2011)

Surely a pearl of the cinema, BUT the movie cheats the viewer by stirring a lot of expectations. The plot gets really thrilling, but at the end the closure is not the expected fulminate show down, like it had should been instead everything ends tepid, when it had could ended really though.
The actors are perfect. The sound coordination even better. Everything fits technically perfect together.
This movie is: For those who like open ends with a tepid dissolution. For those who never understood that the main common factor of Oscar winning movies is the tepid end.
By the way: Polanski shows here his special sexual taste by presenting the girlfriend of the main actress's as her daughter begotten with her own father. Incest at its pure form! Very tasteless.
