Synopsis

A small, seemingly innocuous plastic reel of film leads surveillance specialist Tom Welles down an increasingly dark and frightening path. With the help of the streetwise Max, he relentlessly follows a bizarre trail of evidence to determine the fate of a complete stranger. As his work turns into obsession, he drifts farther and farther away from his wife, family and simple life as a small-town PI.

thehartkid This movie sucked from beginning to end! The story line was boring and all the male characters were worthless. It was completely predictable and not the least bit thrilling or exciting. Anyone looking for a quality movie should look elsewhere...you will not find it here. The entire thing was 2 hours of wasted time that I will never get back.
michaeltrivedi This is great filmmaking right here. I would not say this is Academy Award winning stuff, but it has a story that never lets you go, and is intriguing and somewhat thought provoking. This movie had me from start to finish, and very very seldom let me go. That is how I know a good movie from a bad one, it makes you forget about everything else and absorbs you.8 Stars!!! Though it probably is a 7 at best, I liked it though!
Alan Smithee Esq. Nicholas Cage is very inconsistent and quirky as an actor. Joel Schumacher is extremely hit or miss when it comes to directors. So this is an experiment with the two that works very well as one of the darkest films from a major company I can think of. Fascinating story (although disowned by it's writer) that delves into the dark underbelly of society and disturbing curiosities. Great supporting cast too.
slimebitch I give this movie 10/10 because I think this movie has a real story to it, it feels all too real and it makes you sick while watching it. I can't say I would recommend this movie to anyone to see, but it is a movie people should see not because it's such a great movie, well it is, but because it's about real people and a story that could happen. I do how ever hope that people never do anything like this because I want to believe in peoples goodness. The acting is great if not even awesome, the story is "too real" and I can see the Joel Schumacher in this film as well as others, he is one of my favorite filmmakers through the time because of movies like this one. Even if I do not want to recommend this movie it is one of the best movies I ever saw.
