This is very much a movie that went under the radar, it's a watchable enough thriller, with a decent story, the plot and outcome are a little on the predictable side, but it's decent.I'm not the greatest fan of Stallone under the sun, but he does a decent job in a role that sees him cast against type.Some of the characters are hilariously over the top, the therapist for one, surely Arnie would have been better casting, as this guy is clearly compensating for something. Fortunate it has the glorious Polly Walker in it, that's the real bonus.If you like your mysteries with added testosterone you may just about enjoy it. 6/10.

STAR RATING:*****Unmissable****Very Good***Okay**You Could Go Out For A Meal Instead*Avoid At All CostsStallone and the director of I Know What You Did Last Summer sound like an intriguing combination.But this belated picture isn't really.Sly's performance works more thanks to the script than to him,thanks to some emotive scenes at the beginning,otherwise he's as blank as he was in the Rambo movies.Worse than that,the story is told in a really straight-forward,unoriginal way,you can see scenes coming before you've even seen them.There are few real jolts or surprises.There's some okay action in between,but to be honest,it's hard to understand why this didn't go straight to video.**

I just watched a screener copy of this movie. I was thoroughly entertained. The plot was very sharp, and for a Stalone movie the acting was better than average. The movie was filled with actors that enjoy acting. Maybe the best part of the movie was just when you think you have the plot figured out there is a complete change of direction. I think that helped keep my attention. I actually got interested in the charactors and really wanted to figure out who the bad guy was. I could recommend, with a clear conscience, this movie to anyone.
