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 "mystery" in this movie is why good actors like Ricci, Cusack and Fletcher chose to be in a straight to video stinker. It's as if Lifetime decided to have Danielle Steele adapt a Stephen King story.

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 had a semi original plot ,, i really had high hopes for it ,, seeing Christina Ricci out there ... but still even with a surprising twist at the end ,, the movie didn't really deliver and in short was not good ... at all .

Christina Ricci did a fine job, even John Cusack gave me a glims of hope but the script was way off .. and was so disconnected .. had a lot of gaps even with all of these flashbacks and distorted images which were suppose to highlight the thrill element ..all were just a blank shots.

Final though ,, i think one of the main problems is Arne Olsen was away from writing for almost 8 years so he did not really rise to the occasion and trying to patch it up with Rob King directing didn't do much help... Not recommended-.

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.
