Fascinating movie..
I watched 'Shuttle' yesterday night and I have to say it really scared me...What many people say about the movie is true: Some of the actions aren't credible. There is the female lead, finally pointing with a gun at the captor - and she doesn't shoot. Her best friend who wants to kill him, but doesn't intervene. That 'scared family guy' who refuses to defend - and no one realizes who he really is. I admit - the movie was in some parts predictable. Yet, I was absolutely fascinated. I wanted to know what was going to happen next and didn't expect some of the twists. But what I think makes this movie worth watching is not only the great acting (I really loved watching) but also the message. This movie only tells in the final scene what's been the reason for all this to happen; why five people had to die, but the women don't get hurt at all (except for the one being killed in the end, but even then he doesn't stab her...). I think slavery is an important issue to think about - most people aren't aware of what's going on. This makes the movie soo worth watching.
Not a perfect movie, but MUCH better than many others...
score 7/10
