What a great movie...

Rating: 9/10 (5 September 2003)

Now, THIS is what a movie should be. Riveting, gripping and entertaining throughout. John Cusack, who I don't care for at all for his type-casted roles in romantic comedies/dramas...was pretty good in this. The cast overall was pretty good, I was suprised to see Rebecca De Mornay back on screen, she was suitable for her short role. Ray Liotta was bad as always, he's great. The plot twist in this is pretty refreshing; though its something that's been attempted in other films, this movie does it very well, and leaves you even more astounded by its end. It's a shame that this didn't get more fanfare...I always wanted to see this but just didn't get the chance, and boy am I glad I did. Wonderful film, definitely one of the best to drop this year. *** 1/2 out of **** stars.
