Cinematography:

The start is rather slow but it's just so graceful. Jake G does a beautiful job of representing the two protagonists, and he shows his acting ability in places where a simple stare from him conveys paragraphs. In less fine-tuned productions this kind of thing is just boring and pretentious - here it's part of the film's grip on you, and keeps the page turning.


I won't say anything about the ending, or I would be forced to tick the Spoiler box and deny this review to those who haven't seen the film. It may suffice to say, I was quite satisfied with the whole film - and as you don't know me that should leave you happily in the dark!:)Good film, the art of mystery writing is not dead. I could possibly give it higher than 8 actually, but I'm erring on the side of Just Seen It urge-to-babble.Oh - and I believe this movie qualifies as an example of the genre known as 'Slipstream', a modern term that essentially combines Mystery/Noir/Tales Of The Unexpected and sometimes(hard) SF.
