I lost 160 minutes, a few dollars, and what felt like a piece of my very soul.

Rating: 3/10 (18 August 2015)

Disturbing, unsettling, implausible. The first hour or so wasn't terrible, then the rest of the movie got progressively worse, and the plot holes more gaping, until the film mercifully concluded, but without any "moral of the story." I am genuinely saddened by the high marks given to this film, and I fear that the entertainment industry will give us lots more like it. The acting and direction were the only aspects of it that I could even consider worthwhile, but they weren't nearly enough. This film making IMDb's Top 250 (or Top 1000, for that matter) is a travesty. I can only guess that the "plot twists" were what appealed to those who liked it...I would strongly suggest that these folks go watch some Hitchcock films. This movie is garbage, needlessly violent, and lacking in characters worth caring about or even trying to sympathize with. (Sorry to end a sentence with a preposition, I'm struggling to come up with the requisite "10 lines of text" demanded by IMDb for a movie that has already sucked hours out of my life.)
