Great story masks acting

Rating: 9/10 (19 February 2005)

When everyone got together to make this movie, the LAST thing they must have said to themselves was: "Don't forget! This has to look convincing!" That is how I felt for over HALF of this movie. Cary Elwes is definitely losing something. He seems to be going down the tubes... He has his good moments... and then he has his bad moments. I would really rip this movie to pieces if it wasn't so damn CREATIVE. The story is very well written, following many aspects of the movie Seven, but more of a horror story and less of a mystery story. As a "who done it," you are left guessing until the very end. Definitely worth seeing. If you can look past Cary Elwes terrible acting, and Danny Glover's most disappointing performance that I've ever seen, this movie is worth remembering.
