Laurie4H August 11 Share August 11 I thought this was fun. You have to completely suspend reality but it’s entertaining and Josh Hartnett is great in it. 3 Link to comment

Giuseppe August 12 Share August 12 I saw it Saturday and was a bit underwhelmed. I guess I'm used to M Night's movies having some epic twist, but this was just pretty straightforward. I kept expecting to find out the daughter was somehow the one behind the abductions and her dad was covering for her, lol. Or maybe the twist was just finding out that the wife is the one who set him up in the first place. Josh Hartnett's acting choices were really weird and stilted to me. Haley Mills as the lead detective seemed really random and under-utilized. The plot with the mom of the girl who was mean to Cooper's daughter felt out of place....really, what was the point of that? BUT, overall, wasn't too bad. 1 Link to comment

Spartan Girl October 29 Share October 29 (edited) Well, this was a new low for M. Night Shyamalan. To paraphrase Peter Quill, I don’t need another movie about some impotent whack-job whose mommy didn’t love him! Don’t we get enough of that shit on Netflix?! Hayley Mills was a nice surprise. And the audacity of him raving at his wife and blaming her for the reason he’s never gonna see his kids again…sir, you are a serial killer and you’re the reason your victims’ families are never going to see them again. I would have preferred it if the movie had went on two minutes longer and instead cutting to black when he freed himself, they had one of the SWAT team guys promptly put a bullet in his stupid sneering face the second he tried something. How’s that for subverting expectations, Shyamalan? Edited October 30 by Spartan Girl 3 Link to comment
