Well what else would expect from the man who gave us Fight Club and Se7en?

Rating: 8/10 (18 February 2008)

I really had not the slightest clue what I purchased when I bought myself a copy of the game. From the trailer the film looked like it was worth a look and it seemed as if I was also invented to go along for the ride when I picked it up. I would rather not discuss the plot with anyone because this movie is definitely an experience which some could argue come close to what the late Alferd Hitchcock would bring to us , all I can say that after watching you might love it loathe one thing is for certain and that is that won't ever be bored during the course of this journey. As good as Sean Penn is , this was without a shout of a doubt Micheal Douglas's movie , from the begin he just lures you in with his unique form of acting to the point where one actually begins to sympathises with him. There are classic Dave Fincher trademarks whether it be deliberately keeping things dark with plenty of twists and turns and not to mention a tight script. My only complaint was that the movie might just drag a little in places but having said that it never wonders far at all and the action and suspense is great. To conclude I had no idea what this movie would be like when I viewed it last night and I guess that was the trick of it all as we take the ride with Mr Van Orton ! Highly recommended to movie lovers all over the world and make sure this is on your '100 movies to watch before I Die' list ! I promise you that it is an experience as Dave Fincher will play you like a piano and you won't even notice !
