Horrible Horrible movie...

Rating: Null/10 (29 October 2004)

The premise was good, the idea was good, the opening was good...that was about it. Two guys chained in a bathroom are given a certain amount of time (Like 8 hours I think) to find a way out. one is told that he has to kill the other to save his family, the other just has to escape. It was a good idea. But the two spend the said amount of time reliving flashbacks of the past few days. Sitting there. On the floor. Doing nothing.
Sure the flashbacks were to tell backstory, but then again they didn't really tell too awful much about what was going on. Some psycho was going around making people kill themselves. Same psycho has them locked up. Then flash to a memory that isn't even theirs, but an ex-cop's (danny glover) who lost his partner (the only character I really liked) to this guy.
What really annoyed me most with this movie, however, is the terrible acting. Seriously...Elwes should stick with what he's good at. Pure simple comedy. In the few serious roles he has played he has done terrible in.
If you want to save money, don't watch. If you're into bad movies that try too hard and flop really bad, go watch. For me, this movie gave me a headache more than it did anything else.
