I did a brief search and no one has started a thread about this movie. So, without further ado, my review:

Xavier and I saw it at the drive-in in Council Bluffs, Iowa. The acting was good. I am a big fan of Cillian Murphy (28 Days Later) and even after this movie, continue to be so. He gave a convincing performance as did his co-star, Rachel McAdams (The Notebook and Mean Girls). As Phil put it, she has "cute mannerisms."

Overall, the movie plot was at best, fair. I would compare it to the thrill of watching a T.V. movie. Don't get me wrong, the movie isn't bad, is just isn't "big screen" worthy.

The movie (according to www.imdb.com was only 85 minutes. It was about 40 minutes too long.

I don't really have a lot more to say about this movie. I suppose if you don't have anything else to do, go ahead and see this movie to kill time.

Anyone else seen this yet?

You know, babe, your threads would probably get more replies if they weren't all made at midnight or later [Wink]

I almost saw it, but figured I'd just go see Flight Plan instead. There's only so many things that can happen on an airplane.

The trailers look very creepy and very well done. I probably won't see it, because I'm not particularly fond of scary/suspencful movies, but if I was going to see one this summer it would be this.
