Distorted

If there is a movie that is not convincing, this is one of them. I am a little surprised at Ricci being in this, and not surprised that Cusack is. What ever happened to Cusack, are these the only parts on offer to him these days? The movie starts off OK, then folds beneath your eyes. In fact, I was laughing from when Cusack entered the scene. I am blaming the director and editing on this. He is just terrible. The scenes with him are trying to empasise intrigue and mystery and ended up a shambles. Really, I can't say much more, becasue in reality, the movie dosen't deserve it. I'm giving 5 stars for Ricci's sake.

Tacky, cheap, complete let down. Badly rendered CGI, horrible sets, the first half an hour is enough to let you know you've picked a dud. How this is above a 5 on imdb is beyond me

The movie itself wasn't terrible but whomever wrote this movie DOES NOT understand the difference between Bi-Polar disorder, and schizophrenia. Christina Ricci's character is schizophrenic bordering on paranoia.

This is supposed to be a movie that is full of suspense and mind control but it just doesn't make the mark. Christina Ricci comes off very cold. I think that she plays most of her roles in that way but in this she is also trying to portray mentally unstable and super paranoid and I just wasn't feeling her at all. Which is unfortunate because I have enjoyed her in so many things. I was expecting John Cusack to have a larger role and he ended up with maybe 5-10 minutes of screen time. He's been a bit iffy for me since I watched Cell. I only felt moments of intensity during the flashing scenes. I'm just a bit disappointed.

The description looked intriguing but it didn't live up to the expectation. I was mostly bored and the story wasn't interesting. It started slow and didn't explain things like why everyone scratched their neck or the significance of "Beautiful Dreamer" playing a lot.
