The Fan Reviews

Do you remember the time when Robert de Niro used to be the greatest actor ever and you would basically sh*t your pants every time this guy was showing up on your screen? I know, that's a long time ago... Anyway, in this flick, he gave probably his last awesome performance. Apparently, this movie never received much love but I thought that De Niro was just amazing here. On top of that, there was a really interesting concept but, instead of properly developing this idea, they went for the usual annoying gimmicks and you basically ended up with another average US thriller. So indeed, it is in fact a rather standard thriller and the whole thing was really predictable  but De Niro gave such an intense performance, he just pushed the whole thing to the next level all by himself, at least, that’s my opinion, and as long as the movie was focusing on his character, I thought it was quite spellbinding to watch. Anyway, to conclude, even though it is obviously not a masterpiece, I think it is actually quite underrated,  it is in fact a really solid thriller and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
