A fine addition to any collection.
|Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This movie came in a little under the radar when it was released. I seen it in theaters but it was a last minute "that looks cool" type decision. That decision ended up paying dividends in entertainment however. There are several character in this that steal the show at various points, not least of which is William Hurt who was nominated for best supporting actor. Keep in mind he was barely in the film, he was just that good. Ed Harris and Viggo Mortensen both put in some of their best work. I would advise not to watch the horrendous trailer though, just buy it and watch it with as little info as you can, and just drink in the performances.

Great film with a lot of twist!!
|Posted .David Cronenberg does it again. He has a knack of making movies with great twist. Must own. The BD presentation is subpar but the movie quality makes up for it.

Underrated film
|Posted .Saw this in theaters and thought it was great, definitely unappreciated for what it is. If you know the director's work you will appreciate this film and know not to expect a blockbuster with tons of special effects. Great acting from everyone and good story. Love the opening single shot of the film especially.
