Trivia
Shot in Romania, most of it was filmed in Nicolae Ceausescu's unfinished Academy of Sciences building in Bucharest.

Goofs
(at around 25 mins) Near the beginning, Ben puts his left hand on the mirror. Suddenly, a large bloody gash is across his palm. When gets up, the blood and slash is gone. He catches on imaginary fire, it goes out, and his hand is still okay. When he gets home, his hand is bloody and cut again.

Quotes
Ben Carson: [muttering to himself while in the Mayflower store] Fuck this place.

Crazy credits
After the end of the credits, the title appears, but backwards.

Alternate versions
UK theatrical version was cut by distributor Fox to secure a more commercial '15' rating. The edits included the removal of a blood splash in the opening throat slashing, shots of a burned and partially naked woman screaming, shots of a woman's jaw being torn apart, and close-ups of a neck being cut with scissors. The DVD was upgraded to an '18' certificate and features the full uncut print.

Pretty good, unless you require good acting

The story keeps you present, and Kiefer Sutherland (although I am not a fan), does a great job of carrying this entertaining and well-written film.

The problem is that in terms of acting on the part of Paula Patton, who plays Sutherland's wife, it cannot get any worse. I wanted to scratch my eyes out and stab my ears each time she was on-screen. How this person ever booked anything in Hollywood that was more than a gig where she asks if you want to "supersize that", is beyond me. Not too much better, was the acting by Amy Smart, who I normally love. What a mess.

If you, however, can overlook really bad acting to enjoy a suspenseful movie with a strong story, then you might like it more than I did.
