Once I began to watch the film and Keanu Reeves gave me chills, I knew I would be in for a treat. This super natural thriller, THRILLED. It wasn't a horror film, that would be to say the least. I thought it was a provactive thriller that boasted some of the best ensemble performances this year. Most notably, Keanu Reeves and Giovanni Ribisi. The two of them kept me on the edge of my seat and gave me the chills, with their blunt performances. Blanchett did great as well. Katie Holmes must be trying to shed her good girl image...it worked!
Overall this was a pretty good film, I just thought the ending was kind of cheesy and didn't pay off the mature suspense level that the picture maintains. But hey, I guess it had to end some kind of way.
This film will be snubbed during awards season but if not, honor Ribisi for his edginess and Reeves for his most mature performance ever. Nothing against The Matrix, but he rose to the occasion in this film.
