Sorry, this movie sucks

Overrated and overhyped

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

I won't regale you with the plot - too many reviewers have accomplished that already with massive grace and style. I will say the story itself has a wonderful premise. The acting was superb and I was quite enjoying the interactions and complexities. But, that being said, this ending was a bit too much for me and was so disappointing that it made the rest of the story....forgettable. I cannot get the ending out of my head.

This wasn't for me. It was filmed nicely; however, I found the acting poor and wooden and the dialogue forced. It was also a tad dull. I'm writing this review while watching the dvd lol. 5/10 for me.

Stops without ending, thereby negating some excellent performances. Plot was good 'till they couldn't figure away to close.

This film was very good. The sets were incredible and looked very authentic. I really loved the dramatic lighting. The story is a tale that's been told before, but the characters and circumstances in this film make it stand out. Kate Winslet plays a women who is deeply unhappy and equally flawed. She is trapped. Jim Belushi was impressive in this role and I thought he held his own with heavyweight Winslet in their scenes together which I was not expecting. Justin Timberlake is no stranger to acting and he fit into the role of optimistic artist Mickey very nicely. Juno Temple was sultry as always, but also exudes a sweetness few of her previous roles permitted. I thought it was a great film. This is truly a film about choices, the choices we make in life, and how they impact the future. I highly recommend this film.
