    But all and all I think it is a good, smart and exciting psyco-action summer movie. It's pretty rare to find such an intelligent summer action flick. This isn't Transformers or The A Team.

    $11.50 for something that is just as crappy as my TV at home. I am never visiting a chain theater again.

    FTR I have no problem with inconclusive or anti-climatic endings, as long as they are part of the meaning of the piece, or seem necessary to the story.

    I saw it for the first time and was able to follow it. My friend was seeing it for the second time and was still confused!

    I generally get lost in complex films very easily. I NEVER can figure out who dun it in a who dun it. I was a bit lost in this one, more so at the beginning but was able to follow it fairly well through to the end.
