clhdekker This is one of my favorite movies of all time. It's surreal, unreal, strange and in that way everything is free and makes total sense. I loved it, everything about it.

lar_lef Part thriller, part detective, a bit of horror mark this well photographed, well acted, but ultimately not quite successful film. It is too long and seems as if the makers couldn't decide how to end it. Works best for the viewer if he/she doesn't try to figure out every aspect. Interesting attempt, but starts to lose the viewer with repetitive murder followed by following the murderess/love object. Best part is her meeting the blind man she was to marry. Sympathetic aspect of a movie pretty cold despite the would be psychological explanations for behavior of murderess and her tracker.

SnoopyStyle Stephen 'The Eye' Wilson ((Ewan McGregor) is a loner investigator for the British Consulate in Washington. He is assigned to investigate an official's son and witnesses Joanna Eris (Ashley Judd) killing him. He suffers from hallucinations of his daughter whom he lost in a divorce. His hallucination convinces him to protect the wayward serial killer and start following her.The movie needs better style from director Stephan Elliott. It's not dark enough to be compelling or paranoid. It's definitely not tense enough to be thrilling. The movie sets up the premise but does few exciting things with it. It has a Hitchcock feel but lacks his expertise. Even the surreal element of his hallucinations need some help. They're not unreal or fanciful enough. This could be something worthwhile if it isn't so unimaginative.

Solaris88 Unfortunately that's the extent of the good things in this movie. To say "the plot is full of holes" is a colossal understatement, the plot is nonexistent. If an alien mother-ship had shown up in the latter half of this film and beamed Joanna on board it would not have been any more nonsensical or out of keeping with what had gone before than the stuff which actually happened. If this was a painting it would be classified as surrealism.One final problem, this is a movie about a deranged serial killer and the deranged person who is helping that serial killer escape capture. As it happens the deranged serial killer is a beautiful woman, which apparently makes all the difference. It's hard to imagine this flick ever being made if it had involved a male serial killer of women getting away with his crimes and the audience being asked to sympathize with him.That said, Judd and McGregor both did an excellent acting job considering what they had to work with. And it was very well filmed. And lots of cool older model cars make brief cameo appearances. So three stars.
