After reading numerous positive reviews I decided to give this "thriller" a go. Several reviews warned that the first 20 minutes or so could be interpreted as comical and indeed they were. When the plot finally got kicking, I was intrigued for a good five minutes, but was mislead into caring about the characters by the surprisingly, wonderful cinematography. While that may seem like a good thing for the movie, it wasn't. As the movie plays out and you find yourself not caring in the slightest when characters are killed off, you realize you have zero connection with any of the characters.
With the exception of the older and younger blond (that's how forgettable the characters are, I don't even know their names or remember if they even had names) the acting is on par with a 5th grade production. All the characters are extremely exaggerated, to the point of detachment from anyone you can relate to.
The twist was unpredictable, yet unsatisfying as there is no explanation or reason for their tirade. The final scene is ridiculously stupid. It's as if the writers couldn't take a risk in dealing with a certain character so instead they just leave you stranded.
This movie is NOT recommended.
score 2/10
