Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

... View MoreIt's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
... View MoreClose shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
... View MoreBy far the worst movie I've seen in years. It's so shockingly bad, it's almost funny.
... View MoreBriefly: I realised I had stayed with it into the 2nd hour only because I was catching up emails on my phone. Yes, I too created an Imdb account just to say HOW BAD IT IS. As others say : no plot or at least it's incomprehensible. No believable characters - you wonder who the hell these people are in fact. It starts in a way that should warn you: someone has obviously died judging by the music/ sad faces/ cards... and then someone else dies. For a while it isn't clear who. It goes downhill from there. Who, what,why. No idea. Gave up in the end. Realised I just didn't care. At all. Come on guys. My children could write better than this.
... View MoreA Boston Detective Doyle (Eric Dane) and his partner-wife Maggie (Rebecca Gayheart) respond to a break-in at an art gallery and Doyle figures out this is an ambush. Both are subdued and Maggie is shot and killed with Doyle's gun and Doyle is shot with Maggie's gun. Before dying Maggie whispers clues to Doyle: Crown and Rose. Doyle is suspended and he goes to Nantucket to a restaurant called the Crown and Rose. Doyle grew up in Nantucket and hopes that some family members there will help him discover the reason for the killing. At this point he is not aware that he is the real target. This is very slow going and much information the audience needs is hard to come by. I gave up some things above that would take forever before the Director lets them known. You are welcome. But for you to enjoy this story you needed to know some things. Enter Eli Morrison (Carolyn Stotesbery) and Perry Morrison (Chris Meyer) two psychopaths and we are not sure what their role is in here. There are many things we are not privy to and we find ourselves learning about characters who just decide to show up. What do they know? Doyle needs to find out. The acting all around is good even though much isn't revealed by this cast. Ha!The real mystery in here is why the audience is kept from good information and they (we) sometimes become so confused we almost shut this down. Yes, yes, all information will be revealed at the end. Yeaaaaah! This would have been a better cat and mouse mystery if Doyle knew or suspected who the killers were, but not that he would know he was the ultimate target. Well, that is until the very end. There is a twist that even God didn't see coming. Honest. Notables: Natalie Zea as Melissa, the love interest for Doyle and she has looks that closely resemble Maggie, his dead wife; Amy Madigan as Lola and Doyle's aunt and is the real key to everything; Adrian Lester as Detective Johnson who helps Doyle and also is there to keep an eye on him; and John Shea as police Chief Maguire who also wrote this somewhat confusing story.FYI: Eric Dane was a regular on TV show Grey's Anatomy and he is currently in The Last Ship.Who is the Grey Lady? Why Nantucket itself, which we see in fogs, dreary, and lifeless ways, much like this story. (5/10)Violence; Yes. Sex: No. Nudity: No. Language: Yes, but not much.
... View MoreIt seems that poor movies are propped up initially by gushing reviews from those associated with the movie and their friends, family and associates. So from someone who has not reviewed a movie before on IMDb and who is not linked to the movie in any way I need to say something.Nantucket is the stand out character in this movie and it is wet, grey, dull and lifeless - everyone and everything else fails to live up to this standard including the direction, writing, script and acting.
