Good not great

Rating: 7/10 (27 August 2010)

This is a decent drama thriller. It's well shot and atmospheric. Not too violent like some of the new thrillers are. I didn't see expect the ending twist at all. So that was quite a well done twist. I'm glad there is an unambiguous conclusion. Shows clearly what the reality is. Doesn't leave you wondering. It's well acted but why does Leo like such unpleasant roles?
There are a couple of bad points though they aren't major: If it was all an act feels a bit like you wasted your time. Imagery is quite unpleasant: holocaust, wards, kids. Maybe deserves a second watch to look out for things that fit into the twist.
In the end it leaves a rather depressed feeling. The twist isn't as good as the Sixth Sense twist which was more poignant.
