The movie has some good scenes. But it misses logic in many places and as some others in their review has said, the characters are dumb to take good decisions. After watching the movie, thinking that I wasted 2 hours...

This film's overall rating should be higher than just 6.4. I am not saying it's a masterpiece, I am just saying it's a well prepared movie suitable for viewers of all ages.

MY Vote - 7.5/10.

A man learns that his brother has gone missing and while their past is troubled, he decides to look into the disappearance. His search reveals troubling differences in their lifestyles and it isn't long before the man finds that his family could be in danger. Can he figure out what is going on before something awful happens?

This film was an enjoyable watch. The acting is well, it is filmed well and I felt the story/script could've been tweaked a bit, it wasn't anything that I couldn't look past. There are a few twists that I didn't see coming and that always scores highly with me. I'd suggest it to my friends.

A phrogging story, and not the best. This movie is about a man who betrays his afflicted brother in the worst way causing him to be sent to prison for years. He then goes on to live the highlife his brother should have been sharing with him. When he thinks his brother is back out and phrogging him he's got another thing coming.
