Lucy Liu and Josh Hartnett

Rating: 6/10 (11 June 2008)

They seem like somewhat of an unlikely pair. Obviously, he looked slightly younger than her when they met. But despite that, both acted good in the movie. But I can't say the exact same for the plot.
I enjoyed some of the twists, although the last two or three I kind of expected as I slowly pieced together the beginning scenes and made sense of it for the rest of the movie. It took a little bit of time for it to sink in for what was going on. Many films, when they try this sort of thing, usually don't tie everything together. But this one did.
However, the camera-work was kind of weak. The somewhat constant skipping ahead slightly during the scene was slightly bothersome at some times. Plus, I kind of wished the characters were developed more.
I was glad with the deaths that were inflicted and all the killings seemed thought-out. The music throughout the movie was not on far with what was happening sometimes and that got to me a little.
Overall, its not a bad film. If you don't mind piecing together a movie with deaths like this, then its your cup of tea. The music, direction, and camera-work were not as great as they could be. As a result, it doesn't get the grade it could have got with a better director. The director was just bad. "B-"
