A film with an intense story line that will keep anyone gripped and wandering what will happen next.

Rating: 8/10 (25 October 2012)

This is a true example of a meticulous complex storyline that really pays off at the end. The way the film is portrayed shows you everything from the beginning and leaves you all the clues, it does not hide the fact that Clyde played by Gerard Butler is the cause of all of the deaths and that he has had everything figured out form the start. Instead we see everything through the eyes of Nick, payed by Jamie Foxx, and he is the fundamental character who we are going to follow through Clyde weird and twisted games.
WIth this in mind I couldn't help but get a feel of some Saw rip off with the part at the beginning with the torturing and with cutting parts off and filming it, which kind of ruined this part of the story line for me, but on the positive Clyde's intense planning couldn't help but give me a sense of the Joker form batman, how he was always one step a head of the game and that ultimately the Jokers planning is one of his down sides was he becomes arrogant and doe snot think to protect himself form every possibility, in this was Butlers character was extremely interesting the watch.
The way that film was portrayed was fairly standard, but what was good was the use of the environment creating scenes which were kind of fake and inaccurate, to portray how synthetic the situation is, and how it is so extreme.
Never the less I enjoyed this film, their were holes in the storyline and unnecessary death but it did what it set out to do and there was no moment in this film where I found myself bored or not properly appreciating the situation. For an action film it really does pack a punch and leaves you wandering throughout how on earth he is doing the things he is doing and what on earth his next move will be.
This film is something a little different to your average action film, with its amazing acting and intense storyline you wont find yourself bored but instead guessing what is going to happen next.
