Let's see... it's a movie that I believe, is worth a watch - I'll start this review like that.

Shortly (small spoilers ahead), the movie starts as Lisa (the main actress), is woken up by her younger brother over Walkie-talkie, who has an imaginary friend. A little later because of her odd behaviour that morning, her parents have a talk with her, where she reveals that the day is repeating - over and over again, and how they (her parents) never believe her. And it's a day right before her 16th birthday.. while outside, it's a fog-like substance, like in the movie 'The Mist'.

That's all I can say without spoiling the movie too much.

Other than that, the director is Vincenzo Natali famous for the movie 'Cube'. Then there's the actor David Hewlett (Stargate: Atlantis, Cube) who's in it briefly, then there's Stephen McHattie who looks familiar to me.
Abigail Breslin (the girl from Zombieland) acts well too.

This movie is a Mistery that's wrongly categorized as 'horror', and I'd say it's a pretty good mistery at that. There's a few things that aren't that good, but eh.. most movies are like that. All in all, I did enjoy watching it. 7/10.

I just watched this movie, and there's so much I want to say about it, but I can't. I'd give away too much. What I can tell you is.... In an age where just about everything that is being released has been done before, along comes something different. It's not totally different, but the plot is something new.

And the direction and acting is pretty good as well.

Well worth a watch I think.
