Disturbing and creepy, but very good.

Rating: 8/10 (26 January 2004)

I was watching this movie thinking, "this is pretty good...but nothing spectacular." It ended, and I thought, "it could have been better." But then I couldn't stop thinking about it. I kept thinking about things that I thought might not make sense, but every time I thought of something else, I realized that it was all pretty well covered. Then, about two hours after seeing it, something just clicked and I was like, "Wow. I get it! THAT was an amazing movie." Not like I didn't understand it, just that I didn't really "get" it until then. I definitely wanted to see it again to see if the plot holds its continuity (the same reason you watch The Sixth Sense again). It's definitely worth seeing in theaters, but just realize that it's going to take a lot of thought, and you won't be able to shake some of the images from the movie for a few hours afterwards. It's not gory, just disturbing.
