Anyone seen this? I saw it the other day and thought it was really good. Good acting and a good story. If you like thrillers, I highly recommend this.

I saw it the other day. I thought it was pretty good up til the end. The end was totally lame.
Wasnt bad, but could've been a lot better.
Holds possibly the most scary car crash scene I've seen at a movie.
Julianne Moore was fantastic I thought.

I thought exactly the same thing. Its been a long time since I got a shock like that at the movies. It was almost a waste in the end because the actual crash was insignificant.
The other few special effects were brilliant aswell.

I too saw the film the otehr day and was also dissapointed at the ending. It just didn't make sense.
That car crash scene, amazing!!!! that made me jump as you didn't see the car until it hit

This film has been bagged by just about every critic, and when I finally saw it I couldnt believe that it was actually quite entertaining (up until the playground closing scene). It was so much better than any Shyamalan crap that never gets criticised because he's supposedly the genuis that made the 6th sense, which is a regurgitation of so many other films anyway.
One criticism for the film apart from the final scene, is that I would have liked it if she would have been a little more unsure about her reality, it seems after about 40 minutes she just figures it out and from there on its just another kidnapping movie, but overall its no way near as bad as reviewers say.

I don't intend on seeing it. Not into those kind of movies. Final Destination 2 was the last time I saw a remotely thrilling and scary movie - and that was months ago.

Final Destination 2 was, in my eyes, a mocking of the genre and, therefore, a hilarious comedy movie.
If it was meant to be serious it was ********house.

How the hell do you compare those 2 movies? They have nothing in common.

Saw it a week or two ago - really liked it! I think the main reason I liked it because I didn't know what it was about going in, I had no idea about the "supernatural" theme... it was quite cool..
And yeah - about the car crash scene - I've never seen a cinema of movie-goers (including myself) jump like they did when that happened - talk about unexpected!
I didn't think the ending was that bad, actually?! :o

I give it 5/10. I thought the concept was excellent and i think that they could have done so much better job of it. The movie was short but very slow for the start of it. Moores acting was totally see through in it too, i didnt believe it at all. I think the start was terrible, the middle was good and the end was weird but pretty poor.
Car crash was excellent. Almost killed me.
