This trailer is kinda misleading, and it tricked me and left me feeling underwhelmed. The acting is pretty shoddy, even Dylan Walsh, who i really like on "Nip/Tuck", is just the typical "charming sociopath" pretty much to the t. The two people i really dislike though are the main characters, Michael and his girlfriend Amber. Michael is just kind of a d-bag and Amber...well im not sure why she's in this movie. Here's a fun game to play though, watch the movie, but pretend that Amber is a figment of Michael's imagination, it works, she just spouts his internal monologue, and i thought it made her more interesting.This is just another PG-13 movie that tries to reel in the young kids who can't see the R rated films. It attempts to cram in as much of the "edgy to tweens" music into it's soundtrack as it can, the plot is paper thin, and it's CLICHED as hell. It might be worth a rent if you've been able to put up with films like "One Missed Call" or "Stay Alive", cause the "suburban murder mysteries" are few and far between, but im not saying it's anything more than a 2.5 outta 5. This is a remake of a 1987 film of the same name, starring Terry O'Quinn, who you may know as Locke from "Lost." i will definitely check it out and do a comparison in the future.
