I really enjoyed this movie and if you like a good thriller, you'll like this one too. It deserves better than the critics' reviews. The acting is very good and the action is very good too.

This movie was suprisingly pretty good. Some cheesy acting at moments but all in all pretty good. Somewhat like an old cohen bros movie. Entertaining at the least. Olivia is strange but hot. Def worth the rent.

Surprise movie! Surprising for the cast involved-impressive. Surprising for the rapid pace. Surprising for most of the photography. Surprising for the "believability" of the characters.

Surprising for the "believability" of the characters. The glitches or shortfalls included: (1) The near-incestuous relationship was a bit underplayed at the outset; the ability to walk through a near-blizzard in street clothes seems far-fetched from my experience; the relationship between Treat Williams and Kate Mara seemed a bit off, somehow.

I liked that the confluence of sub-plots, while stretching credibility a bit, was not too far removed from what could be realistic. Eric Bana was "delightful" as a truly evil person. All other major characters, Ms Wilde, Mr. Hunam, Ms. Spacek and Mr. Kristofferson, allowed the viewer to suspend disbelief and accept the role they played.

I enjoyed the movie.

Near the beginning of the film I said to my wife "this is most people's fantasy isn't it? If you're a man, it's having Olivia Wilde fall into your arms. Or if you're a lady it's being rescued by Charlie Hunam" and she agreed. Not that thatNear the beginning of the film I said to my wife "this is most people's fantasy isn't it?

Not that that has much to do with the review, just an observation.
From Hulk to Whistler from Blade to Sue Storm all the cast are great. Olivia Wilde and Sissy Spacek stand out for me. Olivia is easily one of this generations most underated (and ridiculously pretty) actresses, I've never seen her give a bad performance. Even in not so great films (Cowboys & Aliens spring to mind) she's so watchable.
Anyway, the actual film... Good, that's all there is really. It's just good, the definition of a 7/10 I think.
